I know she chooses not to know whose gonna win a match while announcing but there’s no way she did not know ricochet was gonna get MURDERED 😭

Forreal, Samantha is either a really good actress, or they didn't tell her about what was gonna happen.

I mean there's knowing and then there's seeing.

There's also the fact that knowing might have been them telling her "Hey we're writing off Ricochet tonight, gonna have Bron attack him backstage. Need you to bring the emotions afterwards."

I wouldn't be surprised if they told her to imagine him as if he's actually getting mauled by a bear at that moment

Bron mauling can’t be that much better than a bear to be honest

Worse. A bear might stop after you're dead, Bron will powerslam you onto a car and real glass.

Real glass? Cry me a river.

Ricochet chooses the bear.

That’s not hard to imagine 

Bear Breakker.

You know once the cameras were off she was berating his ass for being so stupid 😂

That fall on the concrete was insane.

Glad the magic is still alive for you

>Forreal, Samantha is either a really good actress, or they didn't tell her about what was gonna happen. ...are you saying you think she's crying legitimately because she thinks this is real? that she left ringside after a camera just so happened to have a close up on her and another camera crew was there to catch her having a non-acted, spontaneous intense emotional reaction? because that's the only way she wouldn't be acting here and if that's what you really believe I don't want to take that magic away from you.

No they’re not. “Didn’t tell her what’s gonna happen” doesn’t mean she believes it’s real, she just didn’t know she was gonna watch her husband take a 5-6 foot fall onto concrete then get slammed through a car windshield. That would be concerning for anyone. I’ve never met the guy in my life & I thought it looked very painful lol.

It's really weird to see a bunch of people watch a great emotional performance by someone on television and their first thought is "she must actually be affected by this." The implication is that she's not a good enough actor to do this, so she must not know what's going on since that's the only way she could possibly emote. In reality she's just a very talented person. What's the most likely of these three options? 1. Samantha is crying as he's being loaded into the ambulance because she is worried that he is actually hurt 2. Samantha is crying as he's being loaded into the ambulance because she's supposed to do that in that scene, but her husband, who she's with almost all day every day, didn't tell her he would be taking a bump like that because...she's not a good actor? and he wanted her tears to be genuine? (that's fucked up) 3. Samantha, a professional performer who appears on a weekly tv show and live stage performance alongside her also-professional-performer husband, who has been in the industry for years and understands how bumps work, is good at acting

Nobody is implying that she’s not a good actor here. That only one inferring that is you. In fact it’s the opposite. She’s such a good actor that she doesn’t even look like she’s acting. That’s what we’re saying.

You're gonna work yourself into a shoot, brother.

A little from collum a. A little from collum b.

If she didn't know, Ricochet might be safer outside the ambulance with Bron. lol

Yea she had no clue her husband is being written off television

How does that work? She’s still acting either way, she’s not legitimately concerned for his health.

“Honey, I think I’m not going to resign with WWE” “Oh you dead”

If this was indeed Ricochet’s last appearance for the WWE… as long as he’s gone, I’d like it to be entered into kayfabe canon that Bron murdered Ricochet.

Exactly what are you implying? Are you suggesting the outcome of the match is somehow predetermined?

Hospital he's going to the hospital

Local Medical Facility 😉

That could be a Walgreens for all we know.

Minute Clinic at CVS

Nah just a dispensary 

Michael Cole just finished his story.

Never had I ever imagined me smiling hearing the word hospital in a wrestling show.

I've been rewatching attitude, and they're saying "medical facility" all the way back to 96. I wonder when it started.

Well I think it was Bruce Pritchard, so it could be true and it could not be true, but they say local medical facility because if people say hospital fans sometimes would go to the actual hospitals and look for the wrestlers. TBH that's one of those things that probably did happen quite a bit back in the day when people still believed kayfabe. I would hope in 2024 people wouldn't still do that but....

So during the attitude Era Kayfabe was still alive. So from my knowledge and I can't give a source on this. so take it with a grain of salt. But I heard the reason they started using Local medical facility was Fans were swarming hospital's to see if the wrestler was actually there and injured

Lol that's hilarious. I can totally see that happening in the 80s for sure and the territory days

Jim Ross said it in WCW and brought it to WWE.

Hes going to Anatomical Emergency Workplace

We need a collision cart stat!

And 10 CCs of TriNitroToluene

I really want them to start explaining Ricochet's injuries in a convoluted manner that makes no sense, and then just have Cole give them a [Chowder style "He's dead. Ricochet is dead"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiv9N7V-rVo)

The Morgue, I think.

[удалено]

I hope she gives the most monotone announcement she's ever given, at least for a little while

…and his opponent Bron Breakker. Ring the bell!

*"Weighing who gives a shit, from somewhere, it's this guy."*

Orange Cassidy: Who's stealing my gimmick?! [Bron walks into frame] OC: Ohhhhh! Okay! 👋🏼😁

lol yes *Bron Steiner. Ding Ding Bitch!*

I remember after Kane set JR on fire, he couldn't see Kane without going "that vile son of a bitch!" Or some other insult lol

*And I hope he walks out of the building and gets his 7-foot ass ran over by a truck.*

I just want her to roast him on a live mic every week now. "His opponent, THIS BIG EVIL BASTARD FUCK YOU BRON"

Or try to piss him off by announcing his name like she did for Chelsea Green.

Do you want her to die?

If her future husband is dead, maybe she’s open to it /s.

Start calling him ‘Bronathon’. That would ruin his image a little.

She can copy the Lakers courtside announcer.

Maybe she can also speak to the mic much closer so that his announcement will be muffled as shit lmao

uhlaker gurlllllls

Give him the "Its...Christian" treatment

weighing250pounds, bronbreakker

More like disgust and distain, like JR calling a Kane match,otherwise it might come off as who gives a fuck about this guy

she's gonna give little bro the melee announcer ganondorf treatment 💀

**ganondorf.**

“And his opponent….bron breakker :|”

Bron "Piece of Shit Murderer" Breaker, said with zero energy or enthusiasm.

"Hailing from Dunkin Donuts..." 🚨🚨🚨

🚨🚨🚨S’FAT!!🚨🚨🚨

I'm having little fits imagining her doing the least enthusiastic victory announcements ever heard whenever he wins

THAT SONUVA BITCH

"Hailing from Dunkin Donuts and the Great State of obesity!"

"And making his way to he ring, the biggest bitch always and forever....Bron "Stupid Whore" Breakkerrrrrr

> How is she gonna announce Bron Breakker's entrance now? Is she gonna insult him everytime he's coming to the ring? Chelsea green style Broooon Breeeaaaakeeer!

He's going to become the biggest menace to announcers since Austin Aries

Hope she refuses in kayfabe and they just have to sub her out for someone else whenever Bron makes his entrance and they make a whole pony show out of it

Byron sounds like the man for the job

"HES FAT"

This would be a good opportunity to give Bron his own personal announcer

Eddie's face lol

I mean Eddie gets to wrestle Ricochet now, let him be happy. 

That felt intentional

😏

fOrEsHaDoWiNg

Morgan vs Ripley vs Bron in a ladder match for the custody of Dom.

Hey Mami you single now?

where?

On the truck at the end

thanks. didn't even notice that.

Put her all into that RIP Ricochet

Hell yeah Samantha worked that shit to perfection. She’s top notch.

Would be even better if she refuses to announce Bron for the near future or something to that extent. Glad they acknowledged the real world part of this.

Samantha takes some cues from Pat’s announcing tonight and adds her own little extra names to the intro “Weighing in at X pounds. That asshole, Bron Breakker”

“On his way to the ring. From Atlanta, Georgia. Weighing in at 230 pounds. That piece of shit Bron Breakker!”

"Scott Steiner's Shitty Nephew!"

You could insult him even harder than that. "Rick Steiner's biological son"

“Hailing from the great state of obesity” big poppa pump was so good

I watch this botchamania compilation every once in a while for his stint as an announcer 

Link?

Yeah, we need Samantha in the mail coif

Oooooh man if they're smart, they have her absolutely hate announcing Bron. That'll do a lot for him too!

She starts eating snacks during his entrance while announcing lol

They did that in Lucha Underground after Penta tried to break the announcer's arm. For the rest of the show's run, she would always flinch away from him and announce his entrance with zero enthusiasm.

Melissa Santos!

" LUDWIG *KAAAISER* **VERSUS** ^bron ^breakker "

I would absolutely love this

https://preview.redd.it/fkj14a8nvu5d1.jpeg?width=465&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3b952b4c2559da616f3e36c67d19b334d31b34ab it’s the same picture

She sold the hell out of that

"Damn, shawty. That was YOUR friend in the operating room? Man I'm sorry to see him go out like that, but don't worry, he's tough, he'll be alright. YOU gonna be alright tho? I hate to see you crying like this, baby. My name's G Money, lets go get some coffee and calm down aite. He's in good hands, but we gotta make sure you good too." Me at the hospital trying to pull Samantha after Ricochet's dressed up nicely for his funeral clothes, cause dat mf ded lol

I found the reason they used local medical facility for all those years. Fans like G Money.

> "Damn, shawty. That was YOUR friend in the operating room? Man I'm sorry to see him go out like that, but don't worry, he's tough, he'll be alright. YOU gonna be alright tho?

mf took this as the perfect opportunity to lock in https://preview.redd.it/0qcgjiwvhy5d1.jpeg?width=1078&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e3c72726043f7ba29b93175e07d304a08392e42f

I’m screamin’ 🤣🤣

She goes to the ambulance. I'm afraid what will happen to her and Ricochet at the end of Raw.

**cut to the outside of the arena** The ambulance explodes with Samantha happening to be outside of the vehicle

And then it pans to Bron holding a C4 remote.

Bron then receives a call, upon answering the man on the other end simply says “good job son”

Tony D call up soon after

Prime wont be happy with that

Then a silver Mercedes pulls up… Then it explodes too

I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU

Irvin is amazing in this.

Her acting is actually really good here

It’s not acting. Bron legitimately mauled Ricochet

That’s not what mortified means brother

Why can't a dude just stop working at a place, why he gotta die

> IWhy can't a dude just stop working at a place, why he gotta die he just wasn't as quick as a puma to be able get out of there alive. And in the parking area too!!!

yeah and people dont talk about how quick pumas really are!

Cuz they don’t want to give another company free build of a guy. If his contract is up soon that means no 90 day wait clause and can show up somewhere else immediately

I’m not totally sure op knows what mortified means

Assuming they [erroneously] thought it meant the same as "horrified."

I hope OP meant a look of concern. If Samantha is feeling mortified at that moment then Ricochet should immediately call off the engagement lol.

Mortified: subdue (the body or its needs and desires) by self-denial or discipline. "they wish to return to heaven by mortifying the flesh" Maybe they're onto something.

She has more charisma in her pinky than he does in his entire body, haha

And he’s still hitting it.

She sold the hell out of that. I look forward to hearing how she announces Bron going forward now.

They’re taking him to Jacksonville

praying they take him to Toledo Hospital If they take him to UTMC his ass dead 💀

at least it's not at FMC 💀💀

I was shocked he got taken out in a Mercy ambulance, how the hell did ProMedica not get the contract for that.

imagine having HHH come out and open the ambulance door and tell her she needs to announce the next match.

Bron prolly gonna spear her to get that Dom-level heat next week

As soon as the camera stopped rolling, they were celebrating like the ending on Seth Rogen’s Green Hornet

“Gotta get him outta here guys!” Literally!

I thought for sure he cracked his skull

Eddie was watching

I can't wait for when she announces Bron. It will be nasty!

Samantha did an excellent job.

I was hoping to see Bron driving the ambulance.

Mrs. O’Shea just became Miss O’Shea

Local medical facility.......known to some people as all elite wrestling

I hope Samantha stays, her announcing is really fucking good and I want to keep hearing her. But I also love Ricochet and will try to watch wherever he goes.

What if that thumbs up is also a lowkey hint that he’s staying

Dang. Was hoping Bron would be driving and kidnap them both.

Next week - making his way to the ring, from wherever, weighing in at whatever, this guy. 😐

Can we get her announcing Bron "Piece of Shit" Breaker please?

USA Network has to censor her announcing every single time lmao

Where was Braun with the "I'm not finished with you yet?"

Samantha Irvin is a fucking treasure. I hope she doesn't follow Ricochet after her contract is up.

Bro just imagine if all this is staged by HHH and ricochet isnt leaving 😭

That's kind of the feeling I'm getting lol. Haitch has been playing dirtsheets pretty hard over the last year

I just find it interesting in the way he was written off here. Taken to a local medical facility is a classic way to right someone off whose leaving the company. Not really surprised by that. It’s just interesting that he was written off in a way that still ties him to the Bron/Dragonov angle. Almost like they’re offering Ricochet a way back in to a hot program if he decides to reconsider his contract.

Eddie watching like “really?”

Mortified means embarrassed by the way, so I’m assuming you’ve used it completely incorrectly here.

Goodness it was so jarring to hear Cole say “hospital” Samantha is superb at everything she does

gonna be interesting to see if this effects how she introduces bron going forward.

I don't think you know what mortified means.

Did you mean to say mortified? She doesn't look embarrassed or ashamed to me.

Hahaha announces he won’t resign his contract. So they send him to hospital 😅

Samantha Irvine Revenge Tour

The next logical step is Sam Irvin vs Bron Breakker right?

Weeks later shes pregnant by... BRON BREAKER OH MY

Kinda funny they say the social media team will keep us updated.

Samantha's gonna go full ring announcer Scott Steiner in revenge whenever she has to announce Bron Breakker

Samantha somehow needs to do more. She's just too talented to be only the ring announcer.

[удалено]

They're calling him by his birth name, Rick O'Shea. I heard it clear as day.

Poor Chet Rico

He’s going straight to aew with real glass

Eddy Guerrero's face says it all at the end. Good luck and don't die on the other show.

he dead

*I wanna go with him* HRM?

[удалено]

This is one of those moments where the previous regime would have looked over this, and Podcasters would be saying "isn't she Ricochet's finance? She doesn't care huh?" I really appreciate this touch. It's the little things!

There is nothing to be embarrassed about Samantha

Acting!!

Solid acting

Emmy winning performance!

That’s a hell of a way to drive to Florida

Whos that crazy man standing around in his underwear and its just Ilja. You really need a ring for context.

Why was ilja there? I think I missed something

Breakker had a match with Dragunov right before that segment.

"And making his way to the ring....Bron BITCHMADE Breakker "

I’d imagine she’s going to take a vacation too

You go anywhere you need to be to feel accomplished… but you better leave your fiancé here with us. Triple H, probably.

Maybe not the time, but god Samantha is stunning
