16 Revelations From The FalconArrow's WWE Reddit AMA
7. Management Are Over The Moon With NXT… And Samoa Joe
NXT’s TakeOver live specials continue to astonish the wrestling fan community, and the Dallas special two days before WrestleMania 32 easily outperformed the main roster in terms of storytelling and in-ring magic.
One of the standout performers on NXT for the last few months has been indie veteran Samoa Joe, who has returned to the incredible form that made him an icon before TNA devalued his name with the last few years of nonsensical booking and stupid swerves.
Asked about the office’s opinion of NXT and about Joe specifically, falconarrow had a happily positive reply to give:
“Ecstatic. Takeover continually proves to be a success for the company and its fantastic. Not sure about Joe's future but know that they totally want him for a main roster run... I cant spoil as they havent planned anything for him yet but they want to do bigger things.”
Ever wondered what a Brock Lesnar/Samoa Joe match would look like? What about Owens vs. Joe? Hell, forget the myriad match-ups that bringing Samoa Joe to the main roster can suddenly make possible: how about several thousand people on Monday Night RAW all chanting JOE IS GONNA KILL YOU?
It’s the stuff that my daydreams were made of, ten years ago.
