And Your NEEWWWWWW Full Time Announcer for RAW: Renee Young!

So few Monday nights have passed without sheer confusion and utter disbelief at how Jonathan Coachman could hold a job with the WWE. If it wasn't just the general blunders, poor timing, or inability to think on his feet, it was the call outs to kayfabe, the need to let us know he sees behind the curtain, and his real...burning...desire to compete with Corey Graves.
Corey Graves has a new sparring partner and she packs a punch. She's quick, knowledgeable, and respects the fans and what this show represents. Renee Young is that superstar talent and I think we all knew this was coming after her first night on Raw, almost a month ago.
The only problem with Renee getting this opportunity is that it took too long. She had been commanding the collection of boneheads for a while already. Whether it was backstage, in an interview segment, or during the kickoff shows before Pay-Per-Views. She is always quick to save a segment, if someone was rearing their horse to head off the trails, or be the goofball and participate when things got a little too boring. Even in being the goofball, Renee keeps her cool and we never lose the respect we have for her.
This is an easy decision (as I've alluded to in the past, there are many of these), but the fan base and others in power, don't always let the easy decisions pass. This is another sure sign of good things to come for the WWE and its fans. Good job here WWE!
