It's actually surprising that WWE don't do this more - AEW too, for that matter.

During Edge vs. Randy Orton, a cameraman could briefly be spotted in-ring with both guys and referee Charles Robinson after the big superplex spot. No, it doesn't make sense that a non-wrestler would be allowed inside the ring mid-fight (how dangerous), but it was really cool to get close-up facial reactions from Edge.

The guy manning the cam tried to stay low that he wouldn't be too noticeable when the angle changed. He just about got away with it.
