WWE Officials Unhappy with Samantha Irvin’s Social Media Posts – Earlier this month, Samantha Irvin announced that she was departing from WWE as she had been the Raw ring announcer.
She is not expected to go to AEW as she had long planned to leave WWE to pursue other projects. Since then, she has mixed words with fans on social media, noting that she wanted to be a manager and never aspired to be a ring announcer.
She wrote on Twitter, “I don’t like announcing” and then wrote, “I’m serious! Announcing was only supposed to be my way in. I wanted to manage, maybe even become general manager one day. But WWE saw no other future for me besides announcer. I love watching the action but I don’t love being an announcer.”
Irvin also noted, “They wanted Rico to stay in the big leagues. I don’t know why everyone pretending like he was always in great positions at WWE 100. My husband is a millionaire so yes, I don’t have to do a job I don’t like anymore.”
People were offended because she mentioned Ricochet’s money. People have been upset about wrestlers jumping ship to other promotions for more money or better opportunities for years.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that someone in WWE said that WWE doesn’t allow talent to respond to fans in that realm as Jade Cargill got the same hate but didn’t respond.
Meltzer wrote, “The person said that many in WWE respected her decision to leave, but after those posts were not happy about that aspect but because she was gone they couldn’t force her to take it down.”
Irvin also noted that Ricochet is now paid well to do matches he likes and is doing great. She also wrote, “I am so glad I don’t have a boss anymore so I can say this. Shut the f*** upppppp. Woohoo feels great.” WWE does not approve of its talent to answer fans in that way.
