Samoa Joe is like the best all-round talent in the WWE these days imo.
So because Joe was in TNA, he's bad?
And Joe is legit. He’s full-time, he looks like a killer, he’s awesome in the ring, he’s awesome on the mic, his cadence and delivery is so unique and different that he stands out and it feels real and he brings the intensity that is unmatched by anyone except for Lesnar when Lesnar cares (which he did when he was working with Joe).makes even less sense with his love for AJ Styles.
I'd go as far as to say they dont have a single big man that can out work, or out talk Joe. Regardless of size, Joe is top 3 in either category on the roster
agree with the poster that said a face Rollins run works...especially if you match him with Joe, or pipe dream a heel Roman
Honestly, if I were booking this post-Lesnar win at WM:I'd be so down if Lesnar retained at GRR then Joe beat Reigns at Backlash then at SS Joe chokes out Lesnar and wins the title.
When Curtis Axel is main eventing on Raw the night after Wrestlemania, I don't think the title is being held up by Brock. AJ has his so I'm happy, the rest... meh. Another Seth run, no thanks, Reigns and his stupid punches, nope, Finn? don't care, Samoa Joe... is this TNA?
I mean... I read the contract isn't the "extension clause" that would take him to Summerslam, so I wouldn't be surprised if the contract is for one more match in Saudi Arabia and then he's gone.So, I've been a bit confused with some of the things I heard. Is Brock's deal only for the Greatest Royal Rumble? I thought when they talked about 'one match and then we'll see' that they were talking about UFC, but I think it might be for WWE.
It definitely isn't the extension clause, this is a new contract. But he has to re-enter the testing pool and then wait 6 months before he can fight in UFC again. Is he just going to sit it out when he does that? I mean, he probably can, but he doesn't have to. It was also a raise in rate. Maybe he's just going to re-negotiate for each match, which is not only going to pay him a lot, but he also has leverage with creative. Fairly dangerous game to play since you have to have a new deal done or you book yourself into a corner.I mean...

If he wants to fight at the end of year show in December, I'd say GRR is definitely his last match for a little while.It definitely isn't the extension clause, this is a new contract.
