2. Renee Young

On Sept 30th, The Detroit Tigers’ Andrew Romine became the fifth player in MLB history to play all nine positions in a single game.

Renee Young is the Andrew Romine of WWE. She is a utility player who fills every position with confidence and efficacy.

She’s been a backstage interviewer, anchored pay-per-view pre-shows, done Raw Talk and Talking Smack, hosted her own Network show Unfiltered, appeared on Total Divas and even spent a short tenure as a colour commentator. For the past few years, it’s been impossible to escape Renee Young’s presence.

And who would want to?

The unanimous outcry and discontent from wrestling fans when the news broke the Talking Smack was being cancelled as a weekly show perfectly illustrates the way the Universe feels about Renee’s work. The contributions of each and every performer and co-host on that show cannot be overlooked, but the reaction is a testament to the work Young has done and the legitimacy she brings to her role.

Let’s not forget her ongoing “feuds” with The Miz and Kevin Owens either, or as her relationship with real-life husband Dean Ambrose. Could there be a potential storyline on the horizon that goes beyond the limits of the backstage area?

Odds are that would suit her just fine.
