The pro wrestling world was taken aback when Samantha Irvin ended up leaving WWE back in October and her departure remains a topic of discussion even now. Many have blamed Ricochet for her departure and now Ricochet has admitted him leaving WWE had a role to play in her exit.
While speaking on Barstool Rasslin, Ricochet addressed people who blame him for Samantha Irvins departure. Ricochet explained that Irvin simply didnt enjoy being a ring announcer and felt she wasnt getting the chances she wanted. She realized she was meant to be an actress, singer, and performer, not just known for that one job.
Ricochet pointed out that she left after only four years, which was different from other people who stayed for many years. Fans were surprised and thought he convinced her to leave because he did, but Ricochet said that wasnt the case. She just didnt enjoy that job anymore, though he admits his leaving might have been the last thing that pushed her to make the decision.
Ricochet acknowledged that while his WWE exit wasnt the main reason for her decision, it was one of the factors that contributed to it, stating that it was the straw that broke the camels back. He noted that Samantha had already been considering stepping away before his departure, possibly since last years WrestleMania, but his leaving made her decision feel more imminent.
Ricochet also addressed Samantha Irvins future in pro wrestling, making it clear that she isnt interested in returning to the business at the moment. Regardless, Irvin is more than happy with her decision to leave WWE and is already flourishing in other avenues, so well have to see if she will become a big star somewhere down the line.
