October 4, 2018

Wrestling fans that tuned into ESPN today got a nice surprise when WWE’s Charly Caruso filled in as the host of ESPN First Take. She was on the program under her real name Charly Arnolt.

This is not a temporary gig as some have speculated. In fact, she is now officially an ESPN employee.

As seen below, Caruso announced the news on her Instagram account, also confirming she's not leaving WWE:

“Charly Arnolt…ESPN. WHAAAAAT!!! Been waiting my whole life to say those 4 letters! So yep, here I am—officially an ESPN employee! (No, I am NOT leaving WWE! That’s still my home and I am so happy there!) I’ll be doing a few things at ESPN from time to time for now, including SportsCenter updates and hosting the SportsCenter on Snapchat show. I’m still in disbelief. WWE + ESPN = KILLER COMBO! I am so incredible appreciative and fortunate for both of these wonderful opportunities! Check me out all day today and tomorrow doing SC updates! 😍🥇💯💪🏽”
