Renee Young was recently a guest on Lilian Garcia’s Chasing Glory podcast. During the interview, she spoke about Jon Moxley leaving WWE and jumping to AEW.
Specifically, Renee spoke about if she was treated any differently after Moxley had left the company. She was still working as a member of the RAW commentary team during this time. Here is what she said:
“I was expecting, because at that time, I’m doing commentary, I’m sitting in production meetings and all the news breaks of him going to AEW, and I was bracing for that impact of like, what’s going to happen?
And nothing changed for me. No one treated me differently. It was easy for me.
She also mentioned that it was tough not having him to travel with at first but he is really happy with where he is:
“It sucked for me not having him on the road with me. My biggest issue was like, damn, we don’t get to travel together. You’re not in the hotel room when we finished the show. I miss having those moments, but …”
“He’s really happy. He has like a different energy to him. It’s crazy. Because I’ve only known WWE, Jon. Then once he was gone and now he’s like, oh my God, to the point that I’m like, “Can we stop talking about that?” Because he loves it. It’s his first love. He lives and breathes wrestling. He loves it. Yeah, he’s always making me watch Japanese wrestling or watching old school Terry funk stuff that I’m like, “All right, I get it. I love it.” Yeah, he’s so happy. It’s cool to see him just bopping around thinking of different ideas and things that he wants to execute. It’s really cool.”
