Samantha Irvin Slams Criticism Over Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill Hosting WWE Bad Blood

WWE is gearing up for its 2024 Bad Blood Premium Live Event, with Women’s Tag Team Champions Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill set to serve as the hosts. However, not all fans are happy about the decision. One Twitter/X user questioned why a show like Bad Blood, which isn’t as high-profile as WrestleMania or SummerSlam, needs hosts at all.

WWE announcer Samantha Irvin wasn’t having any of it and quickly shut down the criticism and pointed out how fans don’t know how to enjoy the show.

“We just never gonna sit back & enjoy are we 😭🤦🏽‍♀️,” and then followed up with another message aimed at the Internet Wrestling Community (IWC): “IWC knows how to book PLE’s, secure sponsors, delegate budgets, call matches, commentate, brand & market, but they don’t know how to enjoy the show.”

But Irvin didn’t stop there. When another fan chimed in, agreeing with the original question about why hosts were even needed, Samantha offered a more detailed response.

“To make people happy. To have fun. To celebrate the champs who’ve been on damn near every show and to not ignore the crossover mainstream appeal these women have accomplished. And who knows what else they have in store 👀.”

Samantha’s comments seem to echo WWE’s desire to celebrate its top talent while also entertaining fans in new and creative ways. With Belair and Cargill both enjoying significant mainstream success, their presence at Bad Blood 2024 as hosts could signal something exciting for the event.
