While yes, we know what Renee Young can do as a backstage interviewer and pre-show hostess, it's as a color commentator in a multiple-man booth where Young may actually have her best fit in WWE. We already know that Young conveys sympathy well. Also, it's entirely possible that WWE's television announce position is more macho and irreverent than ever before, and angles from serious to puerile lack any sort of gravitas to suck in a WWE fanatic. In fact, it can be said that had Brock Lesnar not succeeded at emasculating John Cena at Summerslam, that JBL and Cole would've found some way to work in a joke that popped them (and nobody else) or not conveyed any sense of the dangerous nature of how Lesnar was attacking Cena. Though developing, Renee Young is a quick learner, and moreso than any other NXT talent - male or female - she may be the biggest breakout star of this era of WWE's developmental territories.
