Former WWE ring announcer Samantha Irvin has shared an update marking the one-year anniversary of her departure from the company, confirming that she still has one year remaining on her non-compete clause.
Irvin unexpectedly exited her role as the WWE RAW ring announcer on October 21, 2024, ending a remarkable run that made her one of the most recognizable voices in WWE. Her departure led to the return of Lilian Garcia, who filled in as RAW’s full-time ring announcer until March 2025 and continues to appear for special events.
When a fan posted about a year having passed since Irvin’s exit, she replied with an update on her status. She wrote: “One year down, one year left on my non-compete! Can’t wait I hope you enjoy my songs in the meantime and look back on all the memories as fondly as I do! Love & miss you all and remember- I NEVER left FOR music, I am music. Hope to see you soon…”.
Since her departure, Irvin has returned to music, releasing her first solo single, Make Me, in February 2025. She also released a music video for a new track, Shawty Wanna, in April 2025.
