"They are talking with Samoa Joe about bringing him in with Jonny Fairplay. The company is back talking with Fairplay thinking his notoriety will help them when they start on TV. Fairplay suggested the idea of Joe, and the office people (who deep down hate ROH and while it's never said publicly, several close to the situation say it's a common theme) loved the idea of stripping ROH of its champion. There is no deal in place because Joe at this point has refused to bail on ROH without at least going out professionally, and as of the weekend, the negotiations had not reached the serious level."
Wow
What do you guys make of that?
First off, as much as I like Joe, I don’t think he fits the RoH style. I mean he’s a strong style worker and I cant really see any one in the company his style would work well against, especially in the sports entertainment like styles. First off I can’t ever see Joe getting passed Midcard, I think they really only want to get him away from RoH so that they lose another big name.
So maybe if he does go to NWA TNA, He will have battles with the likes of AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels, but I for one cant see his true talent being aloud to show if he does step in to that TNA ring.
Thoughts?
