In the wake of Samantha Irvin’s departure from WWE, a dedicated fanbase has emerged, fervently advocating for her return to the company. However, it appears that these passionate pleas have fallen on deaf ears, with Irvin recently taking a firm stance on social media to quell the speculation.
Irvin, a seasoned ring announcer with nearly two decades of experience in the professional wrestling industry, joined WWE in 2016, quickly establishing herself as a beloved fixture in the world of sports entertainment. While her tenure with WWE ultimately came to an end in December 2022, fans remain enthusiastic about the prospect of her return to the company.
However, in a recent social media post, Irvin decisively shut down the notion that she would be returning to WWE anytime soon. In a straightforward and assertive statement, the former ring announcer made it crystal clear that her departure from the company was a permanent one.
“We’re not coming back,” Irvin unequivocally stated in her social media post. “While I appreciate the sentiment, I’ve moved on and am excited for the next chapter of my career.”
Irvin’s decision to leave WWE was met with widespread speculation, with many fans and pundits alike wondering what had led to her departure from the company. While the circumstances surrounding her exit remain unclear, sources close to the situation have revealed that Irvin’s decision was, in part, driven by a desire to explore new opportunities and challenges in the professional wrestling industry.
“Sam’s departure from WWE was a long time coming,” a WWE insider revealed. “While she was incredibly talented and a fan favorite, she felt stifled by the company’s creative constraints and was eager to break free and explore other possibilities.”
Irvin’s move to AEW, where she currently serves as the company’s Director of Talent Relations, has been seen by many as a major coup for the upstart promotion. With her extensive experience and knowledge of the professional wrestling industry, Irvin has been instrumental in helping to shape AEW’s roster and creative direction.
However, despite her success in her new role, Irvin has been the subject of intense speculation and scrutiny from WWE fans, who continue to hold out hope that she will one day return to the company. However, according to sources close to Irvin, this is unlikely to happen anytime soon.
“Sam’s very clear about her intentions,” a source revealed. “She’s happy in her new role at AEW and is excited to see where her career takes her next. She’s not looking back and is focused on the future, not the past.”
While some fans may be disappointed by Irvin’s decision to leave WWE, it’s clear that she is determined to forge her own path and pursue new opportunities in the professional wrestling industry. As she continues to thrive in her role at AEW, it’s likely that her decision to leave WWE will be seen as a bold move that ultimately paid off.
In a statement to Ringside News, Irvin expressed her gratitude to WWE fans for their support during her time with the company. However, she was clear that her focus is now on her new role at AEW and the opportunities that lie ahead.
“I want to thank everyone who has supported me during my time at WWE,” Irvin stated. “However, I’m excited to be a part of the AEW family and look forward to seeing what the future holds.”
