Samantha Irvin sends an emotional message before WWE RAW

Samantha Irvin—WWE ring announcer and Ricochet's real-life partner—has endured a rocky road lately. She sent an emotional message to fans ahead of the coming episode of RAW.

Samantha Irvin is one of the most well-known WWE ring announcers of all time, being lauded regularly for her work on the mic when introducing different stars. She has developed her own style for different entrances of superstars, making sure they receive their own personality through her announcements. Gunther, Chelsea Green, and many others have reaped the benefits of this in recent months.

Unfortunately, Irvin has also received a lot of hate. On a few occasions, she has gotten emotional or even excited when making announcements. For some reason, some fans don't seem to appreciate her enthusiasm, and there's been hate directed at her for the same.

However, she's also received a lot of support in opposition to the hate she has faced online. Irvin sent an emotional message online, making it clear that she appreciated fans having her back and showing her love in the face of such negativity.

"I see & feel all the love you send my way. I appreciate it so much 🫂#WWEUniverse"

Samantha Irvin is also dealing with the fact that Ricochet is leaving WWE

Things have not been the easiest for Samantha Irvin in the company recently. Other than the hate she has received online, her real-life partner, Ricochet, is also set to leave the company.

According to recent reports, Ricochet told the company he would leave when his contract expires, which is set to happen next month. The star was already written off TV with Bron Breakker assaulting him backstage on an episode of RAW. The same segment saw him lawn-darted into the side of a trailer and then put through the windshield of a car.

Irvin tearfully left RAW with him as he was taken away by an ambulance.
