The Impact of Renee Paquette's Potential Departure
If Renee Paquette decides to leave AEW, her absence could create a significant void in both the programming and production teams, as she is a well-liked figure in the locker room. While there is no current information on WWE's interest in her return, her husband, Jon Moxley, is a leading wrestler in AEW, which may influence her decision.
After leaving WWE in the summer of 2022, Paquette took a break from wrestling to focus on motherhood, welcoming her daughter Nora with Moxley. She made her AEW debut in September 2022 in her hometown of Toronto, quickly becoming a familiar face at Dynamite, Collision, and various pay-per-view events.
