Renee Paquette was recently a guest on Insight with Chris Van Vliet. During the interview, Paquette compared her WWE audition to a boot camp, saying that the company put her through a number of scenarios. Here's what Paquette had to say:
"My audition with WWE was the s**ts. It was not... not that all of it was bad but it was like a full day boot camp where they had me hosting a show, kind of like Aftermath. They brought me in and made me do commentary, who knew where that was going to go. I did it with Matt Striker and I remember calling like a Sheamus match or something. I had no idea what I was doing. That never really changed. So they had me do that, they had me do an impov kind of thing. They just put me through the ringer. I was meeting everybody, like at the head office, they brought me to meet everybody."
"I walked away from that being like, 'well we'll see what happens with that, I don't know' and then days later, a week later the contract came through."
