WWE announcer Samantha Irvin recently addressed some fan reactions to her picture with Ricochet, who is reportedly leaving WWE when his contract expires this summer. Irvin, who was visibly upset after Ricochet’s brutal attack on RAW, clarified that the picture was taken months ago and that fans should not assume that wrestlers are fine after an attack based on recent photos.
In an Instagram story, Irvin expressed her frustration towards fans who commented that Ricochet looked fine in the picture, considering his recent brutal attack on RAW. She stated that the picture was taken seven months ago and urged fans to start taking pictures with their loved ones in case they need a boost of support in the future.

Former WWE writer Vince Russo discussed the impact of Ricochet’s departure from WWE on his relationship with Irvin. Ricochet and Irvin, who are not married, travel and work together on RAW. However, Russo noted that AEW might offer him double what he currently earns in WWE, making it a difficult decision.
Ricochet has been with WWE since 2018 and has been a successful mid-card act. Fans are speculating that he might join AEW once his contract expires, leaving a significant impact on his and Irvin’s relationship. Nonetheless, fans will undoubtedly miss Ricochet’s presence in WWE if he makes the switch.
