It’s A New Gig. WWE Is Trying Out A Popular Wrestler In A Few New Roles.

You can always use a veteran. There are a lot of people under the WWE umbrella. Several of them are people you don’t see very often or people you might forget are around. At the same time though, there are a lot of different jobs for a lot of those people to do. Just because someone may not be wrestling doesn’t mean that there isn’t a use for them, which WWE may be testing at the moment.

According to PWInsider.com, Mickie James did commentary this week on Main Event. James is currently out of action as she recovers from knee surgery and her future role in the company is not currently clear. WWE is also considering trying James out as a producer backstage. There is no word on when James will be medically cleared to compete, or if she will be returning to the ring.

James has been around a long time. Check out her championship moments:

Opinion: This would make a lot of sense as James is someone who has been around for a very long time now and probably knows a lot more than a good chunk of the current women’s roster. It would make sense to let her try and see what she could do as the worst she can do is not work out so well. James is a talented person and someone who can offer a lot to WWE, even if it means not being in the ring these days.

What do you think of James? Will she get back in the ring? Let us know in the comments below.
