Legendary ring announcer Michael Buffer endorses current WWE personality

Legendary ring announcer Michael Buffer has high praise for current WWE talent Samantha Irvin.

Buffer is one of the most popular ring announcers of all time, who rose to prominence in the world of professional boxing and is known for his catchphrase, "Let's Get Ready to Rumble." Wrestling fans may recognize him from his days working for WCW during the height of Monday Night Wars. He's also called events for the NFL, NASCAR, MLB, and the NBA.

When someone asked on Twitter who is the greatest ring announcer of all time, a fan responded by naming Buffer. However, this same fan also named WWE ring announcer Samantha as the best announcer today.

Buffer responded to the tweet and agreed with the fan, adding that Irvin has a "super voice."

"Samantha is REALLY outstanding!! Super voice!!"

Buffer later congratulated Irvin on her engagement to WWE Superstar Ricochet.

"Oh, and big congratulations to @SamanthaTheBomb and WWE superstar @KingRicochet on their engagement!"
