6 WWE/AEW stars who obtained U.S citizenship

#4. Former WWE Presenter Renee Paquette

Former WWE Presenter Renee Paquette (F.K.A Renee Young) was also born in Canada. She moved to the United States at the age of 19 to pursue a comedic acting career. However, she later returned to Toronto, where she tried her luck auditioning for several movies, music videos, and commercials.

"Being in Canada, I got stuck not getting lead role auditions, so I switched gears and got into hosting. I just needed a camera and myself to do that. I started producing my own show for a small network in Canada that was a lot of band interviews and stuff about extreme sports. I snowballed that into working for The Score," Paquette told WWE.com.

While working for The Score Television Network in Canada, Paquette started presenting pro wrestling shows. She then signed a WWE contract in 2012 and moved to The United States.

"I really wanted to come work in America. There are not a lot of places to work in Canada. It’s very, very limiting. My agent in Los Angeles helped get the ball rolling to land somewhere here. I knew WWE was looking for broadcasters. They flew me down. It was a very last-minute thing. I called in sick to work that day, caught a flight to New York, drove to Stamford, flew back home and carried on doing all my daily shows until the paperwork was done and I could come work here," she explained in her interview with WWE.com.

Paquette spent eight years in WWE. During that time, she became the main presenter. She also became the first female to join the RAW commentary team on a full-time basis.

Like Maryse, the 35-year-old Canadian also married an American colleague. Paquette fell in love with former WWE Superstar and current AEW Star Jon Moxley. They tied the knot in April 2017.

Earlier this year, Paquette announced that she had become an American citizen. The 35-year-old, who left WWE last year, recently began her podcast, "Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette." She also launched a YouTube channel.
