Ricochet Comments on Potential of Samantha Irvin Joining Him in AEW in Future

A recent episode of The Ariel Helwani Show featured Ricochet as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Ricochet’s thoughts about the potential of his wife and former WWE ring announcer Samantha Irvin joining AEW in the future.

“She probably would consider it, for sure, but I think right now she….she honestly was thinking about leaving and letting it be known for a little bit that she wanted to leave before I was even, six or seven months before I was (leaving), she was already thinking about it. Not that she didn’t like announcing. She loved the actual act and being in the front row. For her, saying someone’s weight and hometown wasn’t her dream. She made it obvious she wanted to do more. People like Paul Heyman pulled her aside and talked to her. She’s talking to Michael Hayes and he’s like, ‘You want to learn more, don’t you?’ She’s like, ‘Absolutely.’ ‘I can tell you want to learn more.’ When she knew that they knew, ‘we have such a good thing.’ She was so good at it. You have to think, if you had Mariah Carey, I know people are going to throw me to the wolves for saying this, but if you had Mariah Carey be a ring announcer, it’s going to be awesome.
I walked up on her and she was in her chair writing in her book and I see what she’s writing. It’s music notes laid out. ‘What is this? Songs?’ ‘No, it’s Rhea Ripley,’ but it’s how it’s going to sound in her head when she says Rhea Ripley. She was thinking about things like that. She was thinking about when the beat drops and trying to say everything before the beat drops. She was trying to think about these things and where someone is from and their character. All that is fun, but she wanted to put that effort into a character. ‘If I can make people feel this way just by announcing, what do you think I can do in a promo?’ When she knew that it wasn’t going to happen, she wanted to get out of it. I know people think she left for music, but she didn’t leave for music. She’s always done music. She’s been in the show choir and drama club for 20-30 years. She had an album come out in 2015-16. What she’s doing now is, kind of like me, I’m going back to stuff I did on the indies that got me popular. Same thing with her. Music has always been her thing. I think she felt stuck in this role, but she’s an actress. She was playing the role of a ring announcer. It just happens that she has one of the best voices in the world. She grew up a huge fan of wrestling. She knows the characters and how people would announce them and that characters have their own personalities. She was always kind of wanting to go. Once I departed, that was the straw and she made up her mind after that.”

AEW News & Notes

In a recent response to a fan on Twitter, Dax Harwood claimed that he will retire from in-ring wrestling if FTR loses to Adam Copeland & Christian Cage at this Saturday’s AEW All Out 2025 event in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

MJF and former WWE and AEW talent Andrade have been interacting with each other over this past week on Twitter following Andrade’s recent release from WWE. MJF was the first to reach out and invited Andrade to hang out and drink a margarita together when he arrives in Mexico for his match against Mistico at CMLL’s 92nd Anniversary show. Andrade responded with a middle finger emoji leading to MJF responding back calling Andrade a “perro.” On Tuesday, Andrade responded calling MJF a “pussy” and issued a challenge to him for a Hair vs. Mask match.

AEW recently released two new AEW Flashblack videos to their official YouTube channel. The first new video was a singles match of Paul Wight vs. QT Marshall from AEW All Out 2021. The second new video was an AEW All-Atlantic Championship match of Kip Sabian vs. PAC (c) from AEW All Out 2022.

AEW also recently released two new Hidden Classics videos to their official YouTube channel. The first new video was a No Rules Tag Team match of Shane Taylor & Keith Lee vs. War Machine (Hanson & Raymond Rowe) from ROH Survival of the Fittest 2016. The second new video was a ROH World Championship match of RUSH vs. Matt Taven (c) from ROH Death Before Dishonor 2019.

AEW also recently released one new video to their official YouTube channel. This new new video was a Lights Out Steel Cage match of Hangman Adam Page vs. Swerve Strickland from AEW All Out 2024.

In a recent interview with GamesHub, WWE Hall of Famer Jake “The Snake” Roberts gave his thoughts about how nobody in AEW currently reminds him of himself as a wrestler. Roberts stated “Oh, Randy Orton is a lot like Jake ‘The Snake.’ Without a doubt. Just the mannerisms and the way he carries himself. AEW. Not so much. They’ve got a different class of breed down there. They’re smaller guys and they’re all high flyers. Snakes don’t fly!” Roberts also gave his thoughts about the differences between former WWE Executive Chairman Vince McMahon and AEW CO Tony Khan’s management styles. Roberts stated “Well, I think Khan has it in the way he treats talent. Vince (McMahon) was a great delegator. He would come up with the idea or use somebody else’s idea and spread it around to where everybody could work on it. Tony Khan doesn’t do that. He wants us to be all hands on him doing it. And a lot of times things get missed. No way one man came up with this stuff 24/7, seven days a week. You know, how many shows are they doing now? You know, that’s a lot of TV time.“

In a recent interview with Forbes, Kyle Fletcher gave his thoughts about his match against Will Ospreay at AEW Full Gear 2024 being when he had felt that people began to understand him as a future star. Fletcher stated “It was an instance when people started to understand me, and I felt comfortable in front of those fans. When I was in the ring, sometimes you get those moments where everything’s going exactly how you pictured it. The crowd is absolutely into it, and you get a moment in between some stuff. You’re lying there on the ground, just listening to everything, you feel the vibe in the room, and you kind of just realize yourself, ‘Oh, we got something special going on here.’ I had that moment in the ring, and then afterwards, the reaction from everyone backstage and to everything online, all of that combined made me go, ‘We did good. We made it.’“

In a separate interview with the Good Karma Wrestling podcast, Kyle Fletcher gave his thoughts about how AEW feels different with Hangman Adam Page taking the reins over from Jon Moxley as AEW World Champion. Fletcher stated “Yeah, I feel like with Mox as champ, it was definitely — I think he did exactly what he set out to do in a lot of ways. I don’t think a lot of people liked it at the time. They were like, ‘We wanna see someone else’ but I think he did exactly what he set out to do. He was waiting for someone to step up, and Hangman, he really found himself throughout that process and he turned into the world champion that AEW has needed these past couple of years so, yeah, I think the company feels very different with him at the forefront. It feels like, almost, we’ve come out of this cloud of darkness almost that was the Moxley championship reign and everything feels a lot more hopeful. We have this momentum now going forward and we just gotta keep capitalizing on it, honestly.” (Transcript h/t: Fightful.com)
