Fox has put out a press release, stating that Renee Young will be back on Fox during their celebration of WWE being on Fox for one year.

This is possible because Young is still under contract with Fox Sports, despite having been released from her WWE contract. So she will be hosting the SmackDown kick-off show for the October 16th edition.
