Samantha Irvin just gave fans the clearest update yet on her wrestling comeback—and it turns out they’ll be waiting a little longer. While speculation about her joining AEW has been building for months, Irvin has now confirmed she’s still under a non-compete agreement with WWE.
On October 21, 2025, a fan tweeted about how proud they were to support Irvin since her WWE departure, praising her music career while eagerly waiting for her wrestling return. Irvin responded with a revelation that sheds light on her timeline.
“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…..”
The former WWE announcer has been busy since leaving the company, diving into music and making appearances such as WaleMania X earlier this year in Las Vegas. But with her non-compete still active, wrestling fans won’t see her back in the ring—or at ringside—until late 2026.
Her comments line up with earlier reports suggesting AEW has interest in bringing her in. With Irvin confirming her timeline, anticipation is only going to grow as the countdown continues.
Do you think Samantha Irvin will land in AEW once her non-compete expires, or does WWE still have a shot at bringing her back? Share your thoughts in the comments.
