Unless you scoured the intro closely, then you wouldn't have seen this one coming.

Before launching her pro wrestling career and seeking thrills there, Renee was an avid fan of street racing. She used to drive stick shift and her first racing car was a 1985 Porsche 944. For reference, the car pictured above (which doesn't belong to Michelle, for the record) is a Turbo Cabriolet model from around the same time period.

It's a wonder then that Renee didn't grab the wheel and drive off during that recent skit with Drake that had her husband invading Elias' music studio to win back the WWE 24/7 Title. No, they weren't driving a Porche 944 for that segment, but it's still bloody hilarious to re-watch.

Much like with her extensive martial arts background, there can't be many on the current WWE pay roll who can look back on days spent racing through the streets. Renee can though. Hey, perhaps someone can let WWE know so they can help cast her in the next Fast & Furious spin off...
