Jim Cornette Criticizes Former WWE Regime as “Stupid” for Requesting Samantha Irvin to Tone it Down

The journey of the WWE ring announcer Samantha Irvin has been marked by a significant evolution, beginning in NXT where she honed her skills before making her huge impact on the main roster. Her continuous growth combined with her supreme talent has been evident, earning her admiration from fans and peers alike.

Ricochet’s fiance reached a poignant moment at WrestleMania 40, as Cody Rhodes clinched a historic victory over Roman Reigns to become the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. As soon as that happened, Irvin’s heartfelt announcement reflected the emotional magnitude of the moment, underscoring her passion for the sport.

Despite her immense and distinctive talent, Samantha Irvin had her fair share of detractors. But one of them has apparently turned into her fan, that being wrestling veteran Jim Cornette. On the recent episode of his The Jim Cornette Experience podcast, Jim stated that he has now become a fan of Samantha and fired shots at the old WWE regime asking her to tone down her style, which was the prime reason she thrived under the new era as one of the prime figures on WWE television programming.

“I’m a Samantha Irvin fan now. The inflections, the facials, she’s doing a good job. I wanted to praise her there. “They (the old WWE regime) were crazy if they were trying to tell her tone it down, because she comes off doing this more like the Bruce Buffer type of introduction.”
