WWE Star Reacts To Samantha Irvin Leaving The Company

We’ve seen some interesting WWE departures so far in 2024, and Samantha Irvin shocked the world last month when she officially announced that she was leaving the company. Samantha’s voice had become familiar to millions, but she clarified following her departure that ring announcing simply wasn’t for her.

Irvin has been a very hot topic on social media since she announced that she was leaving WWE, but Jackie Redmond recently defended Samatha’s decision to part ways with the company while speaking with Gabby LaSpisa.

“The thing about Sam that I think people need to realize, because I know since she left, there’s been a lot of fodder online — Sam right now is following her heart. I don’t understand how anyone could ever hate on someone for that, she’s following what she genuinely is passionate about and that’s signing and that’s music.

The reason she was able to be so legendary as an announcer is because she understands how to emote with her voice and she understands how to make her voice powerful, she knows all the ways to use it and to use it with conviction and convey certain things, even though all you’re doing is saying a name, which is crazy to think about. Her talent, she’s undeniable, she’s absolutely undeniable. As a person, she’s amazing.”

Redmond also explained that when she first joined WWE, Samantha Irvin was someone who made an effort to make sure that she was comfortable. She praised Irvin and Ricochet for doing little things to help her adjust to life in the wrestling world such as driving her back to her hotel after shows.
