I've always been partial to "Tonga Jim" Polynesian Paul Fatty Turnbuckle.

Wait, so the guy with the towel and the Bullet Clubish shirt from the pre-show...was that Joe? If so, that is f***ing incredible.

I just finished Takeover, so glad that I didn't spoil myself.
Holy f***ing s**t. It actually happened. Falconarrow was right. I can't believe that Joe is finally in the WWE. Amazing.

I know the comparisons between Joe and Tazz has been going on for years, but he was seriously a slightly larger goatee and a singlet away from Tazz's debut against Kurt Angle.

I was just about to post this, but luckily I checked first. This is good news for everyone involved, and those out there who could find themselves in a similar situation now that the precedent has been set. I'm sure this type of deal won't be offered to everyone, but for more established guys, it's definitely a good thing. I wonder if there's still any interest from either side on Cabana. He would be an ideal candidate for a deal like this. Edit: AJ, Daniels, & Kazarian fit that mold too now that I think about it. Hell, maybe even Ki gets another shot with the company, this time down in NXT. To be clear, I'm not trying to recreate the first couple ROH years here. They can come in every couple months, staggered, so the roster isn't filled with a bunch of indie vets all at the same time. One or two guys either get called up, or move on, but you constantly have a veteran presence to help the younger guys out, without changing the focus of what NXT is supposed to be about. I dunno, just thinking when I should be sleeping...

Once his dates are up, I'm guessing he gets a full fledged deal. They wouldn't give him a shirt unless they've worked that out already. Hopefully this also means Joe in 2K16.

Countdown to "Vince Russo: 'Samoa Joe didn't look like a star'" thread in 5..4...3... People are too sick of Russo's trolling to want to even complain about that idiot. With any luck his shit will quit even showing up on the forum and everyone will go on ignoring him.

I just hope someday he gets to take on some main roster guys. Joe vs Sheamus is a personal dream match of mine. So much violence.

I like how Owens isn't afraid of Cena but is afraid of Joe.
Also, I wonder if they'll bring this up on Raw since Owens seems to be a part of Raw now.

Would suggest that Joe tends to be underrated when it comes to interviews. I recall on his old Myspace (that far back) how he mentioned drawing influence from Polynesian warrior poets: hell on the battlefield, the utmost gentleman in all other walks. His shtick embodies that sentiment so resoundingly.

I can't wait for the usual interview on WWE.com that new signings get. Will be interesting to see how much they put him over.
