Okay, so, I was browsing around, trying to figure out what happened with Samantha Irvin and WWE. You know, Samantha, the ring announcer? I really liked her, so I was bummed when I heard she might be leaving.
First, I noticed some buzz online. People were saying she announced she was stepping away from WWE. This was around October 23rd, 2024. I was like, “What? No way!” So I did some digging.
I found out that on Monday, October 21st, Samantha had apparently thanked everyone—the fans, wrestlers, staff—in a letter. That’s when it hit me: she’s really leaving. I guess her fiancé, Ricochet, had left WWE for AEW earlier, and maybe that had something to do with it? I’m not sure.
Then, a few days later, on October 27th, I saw another update. Samantha said she didn’t want to do ring announcing anymore and didn’t really enjoy it. That kind of surprised me, but hey, people change their minds, right?
Here’s what I did to get all this info:
- I started by checking out some wrestling news sites.
- Then I looked at social media, like Twitter and Reddit, to see what fans were saying.
- I also read some articles that popped up in my searches.
My Thoughts
It’s a bummer that Samantha is leaving WWE. She was a great ring announcer, and I think a lot of fans are going to miss her. But I get it, sometimes you just need a change. I hope she’s happy with whatever she decides to do next. As for me, I’ll keep following wrestling news, just in case there are any more updates on this.
It was a bit of a rollercoaster, finding all this out. One minute I’m shocked, the next I’m trying to piece together the timeline. But hey, that’s what makes it interesting, right?
