Samantha Irvin Reveals Plans for Wrestling Return in New Role

Samantha Irvin has revealed plans to return to professional wrestling as a manager rather than as a ring announcer, responding to fan tweets by stating "I promise I will bring even more gusto to the mic when managing talent." According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select, Irvin re-signed with WWE in early 2024 with a significant pay raise but also a two-year non-compete clause that runs through October 2026.
