Renee Paquette Signs For AEW
AEW lands wrestling broadcasting royalty as former WWE host debuts in All Elite Wrestling.
Renee Paquette is #AllElite.
The former WWE host, commentator and broadcaster made her All Elite Wrestling debut on last night's edition of Dynamite, opening up the show to a rapturous ovation from her hometown natives in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Having soaked in the rapturous applause for her arrival, she introduced Christian Cage for an interview ahead of the evening's opener between his charge Luchasaurus and arch nemesis 'Jungle Boy' Jack Perry. She later featured as backstage interviewer for match set-up segments featuring Nyla Rose and Anna Jay and Matt Hardy/Private Party and The Andrade Family Office.
Paquette's signing comes just over two years after she concluded her last full-time wrestling gig as the premiere face of WWE's broadcast output following SummerSlam 2000. At various points during her eight years with the company, she served as host of all wrap-around and shoulder programming and multiple WWE Network projects, commentator on Monday Night Raw, SmackDown, pay-per-views and NXT and chief backstage personality on all major shows.
Since then, she's turned her talents to podcasting and writing, finding success in brand new fields with 'The Sessions' and her cookbook 'Messy In The Kitchen' respectively. Outside - but not entirely - of the industry, she's married to current AEW Champion Jon Moxley and gave birth to their first child Nora in June 2021.
