Moose Defends Samantha Irvin After Death Threats Over Ricochet Controversy

Moose is stepping in to defend Samantha Irvin — after she revealed she’s been receiving death threats tied to the Ricochet controversy.

The situation escalated fast after Irvin shared disturbing death threats sent to her following backlash over Ricochet’s comment about a fan with multiple sclerosis. Now, the TNA star is weighing in publicly, making it clear things have gone too far. Taking to Twitter in March 2026, Moose addressed the situation head-on, acknowledging how invested fans can get — but drawing a firm line when it comes to harassment.

“Guys we have to be better….I understand fans get fully invested in everything that we do and say and that's fine.”

Moose didn’t dismiss fan passion — but made it clear that personal attacks and threats have no place in the conversation. And then he delivered the message that sums up where things stand

“Just remember we are not the characters we portray on television so no need for the hate speech DMs or the Death threats DM….let's all be better ❤️💜💙”

What started as backlash over a controversial comment has now turned into something much more serious — with Irvin becoming a direct target and other wrestlers stepping in to call out the behavior. Irvin had already deactivated her Twitter account amid the fallout, and the messages she shared showed just how extreme things have gotten behind the scenes.

Now, this isn’t just about what was said anymore — it’s about how far the reaction has gone, and whether the line between criticism and harassment has completely disappeared.

Do you think messages like Moose’s will actually make fans rethink their behavior, or has social media already crossed a line that’s hard to come back from? Let us know your thoughts and leave your feedback below.
