Johnson was hired by WWE as a ring announcer in April 2021 following an in-ring tryout, after being introduced to the company by Mark Henry.

During her stint with the company, she introduced WWE stars on 205 Live, NXT, Raw, SmackDown and PLEs, before departing the company in 2024.

Samantha Johnson is notably married to AEW star Ricochet.

She recently reacted to being referenced on Dynamite, which you can read more about right here.
