This is kind of a double edged sword....I like Samoa Joe. I like WWE. But I know that WWE is not going to let Samoa Joe do anything that I like about him. All of his moves.....they aren't going to let him do those things in WWE.
It's going to be like when they brought in Taz and ruined him. He wasn't allowed to be an ass kicker. He wasn't allowed to be the human suplex machine. They brought him in, he had that initial little bit of success against Kurt Angle, and then that was it for the rest of his WWE career.
So, really....in a WWE environment, Samoa Joe will only be Samoa Joe BY NAME....nothing else about him will be like the Samoa Joe that we all know or like about him if you are a fan of his.

I still have no interest in Samoa Joe in WWE, but we'll see what happens.

Joe has wrestled legends such as Angle Christian and Sting.like Joe's legit all these stupid iwc fans on here knocking Joe obviously are internet nerds. Joe puts on 5 star matches and can cut the hell out of a promo. Him and AJ would benefit the NXt and WWE SO hard they will put NJPW and Lucha out of business

Cody Rhodes has used the muslce buster and they let Harper do dives all the time. I think his moveset is pretty WWE oriented.

NXT and WWE will not put NJPW out of business. Not even almost, and that sure as hell wouldn't change with Joe and Styles.

They're two completely different markets, and wrestling is still a highly respected sport in Japan. I'd say it's more popular in Japan than WWE is in America.

The problem is that his arrival in WWE is a few years too late. Would I like to see Joe sign? Absolutely. I'd love it, but I would have loved it even more in 2006.

I have a feeling that since Cody has used it, they are going to take it away from Joe.

It was a joke to show the significance of AJ Styles (top Free agent) and Joe(newest free agent) lol! If they really wanted to edm NJPW they'd take Kenny Omega and the two guys that went on before the main event at Wrestle Kingdom

Tell me how the top two hottest names in wrestling of the last decade, who are renowned world Wide wrestlers, couldn't do well in NXt?? Tell me how?

Had Joe came in 2006, I would have loved to see him and Chris Benoit have a match. There are a lot of variables to think of had Joe came into the WWE a decade ago.

I think that in order for Joe to have been successful in that period, Paul Heyman would've needed to fight for him the way that he did for Punk.
