Samantha Irvin Shuts Down Rumors About WWE Exit and Paul Heyman Comparisons

Samantha Irvin’s sudden departure from WWE in October surprised many fans, and speculation about her reasons for leaving has continued to circulate. Recently, she had to address yet another false rumor suggesting she quit WWE after giving an ultimatum to become the “female Paul Heyman.”

Irvin Responds to Claims About Her WWE Exit

A fan on Twitter claimed that Ricochet had disclosed Irvin’s desire to take on a Paul Heyman-style managerial role, alleging that she left WWE because the company only wanted her as a ring announcer. Irvin saw the post and responded with humor, laughing at the exaggerated claim.

“The comments!!!! ‘Make me Paul Heyman, or I quit!’ WTF,” she joked.

One fan agreed that WWE should focus on developing the next generation’s version of Paul Heyman, arguing that while the manager role might seem outdated, it can still be valuable in the right storylines. They also expressed their belief that Irvin would have been a great fit for the role.

Irvin responded by acknowledging that aspiring to be a top-tier manager requires dedication and a deep understanding of the business. However, she made it clear that she never made such a demand to Triple H.

“It’s a beautiful goal tbh and what it really means is: I wanna put time in to learn every single thing. Limited believers could never understand. But regardless I never said that shit to HHH ???”

Focusing on Music and Acting

Irvin’s decision to leave WWE had been in the works for some time, as she now wants to focus on her music career. She has also begun filming for the second season of Churchy, further signaling her shift away from professional wrestling.

She has already confirmed that she has no plans to return as a ring announcer, but it remains to be seen whether she will ever be involved in the wrestling world again in another capacity.
