Commentator, behind-the-scenes consultant, WWE Backstage host: Renee Young has worn a number of different hats since joining WWE, and it sounds like she still has her mind on trying new things.

Young spoke to Outkick the Coverage earlier this week, stating that trying her hand at onscreen management is something she has wanted to do for a long time.

"I would love to do that, I've always kind of wanted to dabble in it," Young said. "One person who I thought for a second, I was like, 'oohh... should we pitch a thing?' was Elias. I thought it would be really fun to manage Elias as his band manager or something."

Young, 34, has been with WWE since 2012. The ongoing global health crisis has forced her and her cast of panellists to present WWE Backstage from home, though the show keeps rumbling on regardless.

Though she hasn't appeared on Raw or SmackDown regularly in a while, Young last took to the WWE announce booth for the SmackDown after Crown Jewel 2019 (1 November), filling in for Corey Graves and Michael Cole who were grounded by travel delays.
