Renee Paquette feels WWE is trying to make "examples" of their performers
Former WWE commentator Renee Paquette (f.k.a Renee Young) has spoken about the company's work environment after the recent walk-outs of Sasha Banks and Naomi.
In a story that has rocked the wrestling world, the popular tag team left the arena last Monday after reportedly being unhappy with their booking as a duo. Banks and Naomi were also allegedly concerned about the Tag Team Championship's presentation on WWE programming.
Speaking on her show Throwing Down with Renee and Miesha, Renee stated how World Wrestling Entertainment is trying to make examples of superstars who are seeking to create real change within the company.
"It's just such a weird time in WWE where they are cutting people left, right and center, I feel like people are really being made examples of as well, and that's the thing that sucks where it's like, I feel like, Sasha, Naomi are really trying to do a bigger picture situation here, and I hope that they aren't like nipped in the bud for that."
