Jackie Redmond has been a backstage interviewer and correspondent forWWE Monday Night RAW since October 2021, but she also part of the NHL broadcast, which is why things can get hectic for her. In fact, Redmond has now revealed the most insane travel turnaround she had to deal with.
While speaking to Front Office Sports, Jackie Redmond talked about her busiest travel stretch during the NHL playoffs while also working with WWE. She said she travels so often and deals with so many hectic situations that sometimes its hard to even remember the wildest one.
The stretch that stood out most happened in the first round of the playoffs. She worked Game 4 between the Oilers and Kings in Edmonton, then immediately took a redeye flight to Kansas City for WWE Raw. After that, she took another redeye to get back to Los Angeles for Game 5 on Tuesday. The following day, she caught the first flight out from L.A. to Ottawa.
Since there are no direct flights from L.A. to Ottawa, she had to connect through Toronto. She left at 6:00 a.m. and didnt arrive at her hotel until 8:00 p.m. She then worked Game 6 of the Leafs vs. Senators on Friday.
Redmond called that stretch one of the craziest of the entire playoff run, with barely any time to rest. It was nonstop: game day, Raw, game day again, a long day of travel, and then straight into an elimination game.
Jackie Redmonds busy schedule shows how much hard work and energy it takes to do well in both sports broadcasting and sports entertainment. Even with all the travel, little sleep, and hard days, she still manages to do a great job. Thats exactly why really respect her for being able to handle both roles and for showing so much passion for hockey and WWE.
