Samoa Joe Makes History At NXT TakeOver 36

Following WrestleMania 37 WWE shocked the world when the company announced that Samoa Joe had been released, but it wasn’t long before Joe was back under contract. Samoa Joe returned to the NXT brand as William Regal’s enforcer, and after one thing led to another he ended up in a title match with NXT Champion Karrion Kross.

Samoa Joe challenged Karrion Kross for the NXT Championship at TakeOver 36 on Saturday night, and in the end it was Joe who beat Kross to become the NXT Champion for the third time in his career.

Tonight’s main event was Samoa Joe’s first match since the February 10, 2020 episode of Monday Night Raw. Samoa Joe is now the first ever three time NXT Champion.

Stay tuned for updates.
