A Recap of the Samoa Joe Conference Call
Samoa Joe was featured in the Spike TV/TNA Wrestling monthly conference call. Here are a few highlights from it:
- Said he hopes Sunday’s match will be a pro wrestling match. He said Kurt Angle has been lobbying management for an MMA match, but at the end of the day it’s still pro wrestling. He later said they will push the boundaries.
- Joe said he’s reaching the end of his TNA contract they still have a few things to work out.
- Said he likes Kevin Nash a lot more now than he did the first time he met him.
- Identified A.J. Styles and Christopher Daniels as two of his favorite opponents. He also put over his past matches with Kenta Kobashi and Homicide.
- Said winning the TNA title would represent opportunity. He wants the opportunity to prove he can make Samoa Joe work in a national company.
- “I’m overly excited about the TNA video game,” Joe said. He said he’s never been a big fan of the WWE game and believes they’ve come up with a better product.
- Regarding the match stipulation that he has to leave pro wrestling if he loses on Sunday: “I was thinking about hiring myself out as a sparring partner around my neighborhood.”
