I got this off of green destiny.
Foreigners for Autumn Navigation '07 have been announced, highlighted by the long awaited debut of TNA Wrestling's Samoa Joe. Joe's debut will no doubt cause a stir, because it has been confirmed that his challenge for a GHC Heavyweight Title match has been accepted and at the 10/27 Tokyo Nippon Budokan show he will face the winner of Misawa & Marufuji.
I didn't expect Joe to be involved in a match this big.

Joe better pull out his older ROH "I will destroy your ass by wrestling you" style, instead of what hes like in TNA right now. |

There's a pretty big story behind Joe getting the title shot, and you guys can thank TNA for almost screwing it up.

I doubt this but I'd love for this to have something to do with Joe wrestling Misawa on 11/3 in NYC.

It'd be great to see Joe getting the surprise title win, defending and losing the title back to Misawa in Manhattan as something of a closure to the Joe/NOAH feud.

Your details behind the great Samoa Joe heading to NOAH....
I was told late Friday by a friend who works for TNA that Joe was told he could not do a job during his sole NOAH match. When NOAH decided they had no interest in putting Joe over a top star, they told TNA they didn't want Joe anymore. Rather then anger Joe even further by costing him a shot at his dream, TNA allowed Joe to fix their mistakes.
Joe then brokered a deal with help from a former employer to mend the fences between NOAH and TNA and the deal for the GHC shot as brokered.
TNA didn't want Joe jobbing, and NOAH wanted to Joe in a high profile match to showcase him for their future business together once Joe is ready to exit TNA. This is a major test run to see how Joe draws in Japan. If he draws well enough, NOAH plans to offer him $500,000.00 a year to become their top young foreign gaijin, and be a part of NOAH's top of the card for many years to come.

Why would TNA help NOAH out if what you say is true and Samoa Joe plans to leave TNA? They have to protect their investment. He shouldn't lose to anyone in NOAH. And no, NOAH is not offering Joe $500,000. Ever. |

He's not a monster that cant be defeated. TNA is letting Joe go, it's not their show for him to win or lose on. Besides what normal fan will know if Joe loses or wins in Japan? |

They want to help out Ring of Honor and get Joe back in the fold so he can work there as well. |

It's a great moment for Joe, but for whatever reason, I'm not really interested.
I mean it's an achievement for Joe, the match should be awesome quality, but it's just more gotta playout for me first. See how he performed first.

We also can't forget us being worked by Jimmy Rave's departure, like JSWO claimed.
