A WWE personality who hasn't been seen on TV in recent weeks is set to make her return to RAW. She sent a message to the fans hours before the show.
Jackie Redmond is a well-known backstage personality in WWE. She mainly serves as a backstage interviewer, and she interviews a lot of the talent before and after their matches. Apart from this, she also works for TNT Sports where she covers the NHL.
Despite being an important backstage figure, Jackie Redmond has been missing WWE Raw for the past two weeks, which made fans a bit worried. However, the sports broadcaster gave the reason behind her absence during an interview with Gabby AF.
She cited mental health as the reason why she took time off from her role on WWE RAW, as she felt she was approaching burnout after covering Crown Jewel and a hockey game right after returning from Saudi Arabia.
“I actually have this week off. I have learned over the course of my career to take care of my mental health and know when burnout is coming. I can tell now, so I strategically plan when I’m going to take a day here or there. I wasn’t on RAW this week for that reason. I knew coming off of Saudi Arabia, I would be fried, and I did a hockey game right afterwards. So, I’m glad I took the time. I’m really good right now.” [H/T Ringside News]
It now looks like she will be making her return to RAW after 20 days. Jackie Redmond took to social media to confirm the same with a message for the fans.
"Oh we are sooooo back !!"
