The Highlight of the Night, Ricochet might have reached the end of his WWE career after being written out of television programming on Monday Night RAW, amid weeks of speculation about his exit from the company. However, a recent photo drop raised some questions, leading his fiancée and WWE’s ring announcer, Samantha Irvin, to clarify the issue.
During the latest episode of RAW, the dominant Bron Breakker ruthlessly assaulted Ricochet backstage, leaving him battered. WWE officials quickly intervened, and Ricochet was taken to the hospital in an ambulance, joined by Samantha Irvin, who was visibly distressed and in tears as she watched Ricochet being attended to by the medical personnel.
What did Samantha Irvin have to say about the recent photo drop?
Following the attack, Samantha posted a photo of herself with Ricochet, leading fans to speculate that he was doing well after Breakker’s assault.
However, Irvin took to her Instagram stories to clarify the situation. She revealed that the photo was a throwback, posted recently. Irvin also addressed those who assumed Ricochet was fine based on the photo, emphasizing the importance of posting supportive pictures of loved ones in times of need.
“For those of you wondering, this is crazy. I’m flying to Scotland right now. That picture is seven months old. So you guys are crazy. Not all of you, but obviously the ones in the comments saying, ‘he looks fine to me.'”
“It’s insane that you don’t have pictures with your loved ones on your camera roll that you can post in a time of need when they could use a boost of support. It’s crazy; you should start taking pictures with your loved ones. Anyway, I just wanted to clear that up,” she added.
