Renee Young spent many years as a member of the WWE broadcast team, but following the SummerSlam pay-per-view back in August Young decided to part ways with the company.
The former WWE broadcaster has been opening up about her experience working for the company, and she recently recalled her first meeting with Vince McMahon on the Saturday Night’s Main Event podcast.
According to Renee Young, she first met Vince McMahon when she wasn’t wearing any makeup, and after she came face to face with Vince she was instructed that he should never see her without makeup on.
“The first time I met him – and he would not even remember this. It was very meeting-in-the-hallway, and I shook his hand and whatever. We were in Hershey, Pennsylvania, I was brought in to TV and I got to the building early, as one does when you’re new. I was used to our world of acting auditioning where you show up fresh faced then change and get ready for the show. Then I realized that’s not really the deal, and you should show up looking nice with a full face of makeup on.”
“Little me is walking around backstage with a clean face, squeaky clean, and he comes walking down the hallway, and I’m like, ‘Hi!’ And I don’t remember who it was with him, but they said Vince should not see you without makeup on. You should be fully done. He did not react in any poor way or anything, but I remember being like, ‘Oh, I didn’t know that. I thought I came here and I would go into makeup, so why would I already have makeup on?’ It was very weird. He would not remember that, but I just remember that happening and I had not a clue that that was how it’s supposed to work.”
It’s not exactly clear what Renee will be doing next, but fans shouldn’t expect her to resurface anytime soon as she recently revealed that she has about a year left on her non-compete clause.
