On Monday afternoon, Samantha Irvin surprised the wrestling community by announcing her immediate departure from WWE, a move that left many fans shocked and questioning her motivations. In her lengthy statement, Irvin remained somewhat ambiguous about the reasons for her decision, adding to the intrigue surrounding her exit.
It’s evident that even within WWE, her departure caught many off guard. Reports from Fightful Select and Wrestlevotes indicate that the announcement was unexpected for numerous employees at WWE.
Fightful also mentioned that some staff members remarked on the suddenness of her decision, suggesting she “couldn’t have possibly informed everyone before leaving.” However, whispers about Irvin’s potential exit had circulated, especially after her fiancé, Ricochet, left WWE earlier this summer to join AEW.
Her announcement was met with a sense of sadness from those in WWE, as Irvin was reportedly cherished by her colleagues backstage. Even after her exit became public, reactions from WWE personnel were overwhelmingly positive.
Some expressed that Irvin’s presence during “Raw” tapings “made the workday better.” This sentiment was reciprocated in her statement, where she took the time to thank everyone from executives to wrestlers and other staff members.
Following Ricochet’s move to AEW, speculation has emerged that Irvin might follow suit. While the exact interest from AEW regarding Irvin remains unclear, sources from both promotions seem to agree that it would be surprising if AEW owner Tony Khan didn’t at least reach out to her with an offer.
