3. Renee Pleads Ignorance

For weeks, we’ve had to endure an unbelievable performance from one of the Raw announcers, and it has to stop.

Every time Dean Ambrose has come out to explain his actions – and then stop short – Michael Cole has turned to Renee Young and asked if she knows what’s going on. After all, she knows Dean better than anyone – because she’s married to him.

And every time, Renee has pleaded ignorance, saying that Ambrose doesn’t tell her anything. Monday, she said that Dean “has a story to tell” and is speaking in riddles that make no sense to her. What doesn’t make sense is a spouse not understanding anything about what her significant other is doing every week.

Unless Renee is going to turn heel herself and protect Dean, she should say that Ambrose isn’t talking to her and has moved out or something, anything better than expecting us to buy the “he doesn’t talk and I don’t pursue” line. It just feels hollow.
