The Internet Wrestling Community can be a funny place at times. While it does have the power to shake up the world as seen in the case of Cody Rhodes, sometimes it can be a bit overdramatic. Something similar happened recently when a troll online tried to share an opinion that was in poor taste. What followed next was that Ricochet tried to teach the said fan a lesson but in the subtlest way possible. Now that fan might think a couple of times before commenting about Samantha Irvin.

Ricochet claps back at a troll

WWE recently posted a clip from the 03/11 episode of Raw. The clip is from the iron gauntlet match from that episode where the next opponent of Gunther was to be finalized. In the clip, Ricochet and JD McDonagh could be seen flying around in the ring and Ricochet’s fiance, Samantha Irvin was sitting on the edge of her seat during the match. Fans could see how visibly nervous she was as her fiance was about to be pinned by McDonagh.

While the purpose of WWE posting the clip might be to remind fans that they are a couple and Irvin gets worried for him, fans took it in another way. A fan commented on the post, “I have never once watched a wrestling match and thought ‘I wonder who the announcer is and how they are reacting to the match”.

However, this is not the first time Ricochet has confronted the Internet Wrestling Community head-on. When almost everyone was against WWE, the former Intercontinental Champion decided to call out fans for their behavior.
