Hall Of Famer Says WWE Left Money On The Table With Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe made a name for himself wrestling in companies like Ring of Honor and Impact Wrestling, but fans wondered for years if he would ever get a legitimate run with WWE. Joe finally joined WWE in 2015 and it didn’t take long for him to become one of the top stars on the NXT brand. In 2017 Samoa Joe officially joined the main roster and fans had high hopes for his WWE run.

During his time on the main roster Samoa Joe feuded with some big names, and he also managed to win the United States Championship twice. However, Road Dogg recently explained on his Oh You Didn’t Know? podcast that he thinks WWE left money on the table with Samoa Joe.

“100 percent (there was more to Samoa Joe in WWE). I think Samoa Joe is money any way you look at it. He’s a great promo, I believe every word he says, he’s well-spoken, he’s a big tank of a man, he can fly around like a bumblebee. He shouldn’t be able to but he can and so it’s just incredible how much money is left on the table with Samoa Joe and look, I don’t know how he’s doing now or whatever but I just think from our company and me working with him, man, there was a lot left on the table with Samoa Joe.”

Samoa Joe was released from WWE in April of 2021, but he was brought back to the company a few months later. Ultimately he was released from WWE again in 2022, and he has since moved on to work in AEW and ROH.
