I think they definately had Samoa Joe in mind when they wrote this. But it's not a big deal.
Besides, it's nowhere near TNA's shots at WWE (the whole cookies and balloons bit, VKM and Ron Killings' rap come to mind)

If WWE really wanted to take shots at TNA we'd be seeing "Millionaire Jerrys wrasslin war room" skits, and unneccesary shots at spike tv's other programming (a la larry fling).

Average Joe is a common expression. And we all know that Mr. Seaona (sp?) isn't your average Joe, he's a Samoa Joe.

I don't believe it's a "shot," but using the phrase "not your average Joe" is so ridiculously stale and ineffective in this context. I'll chalk it up to uninspired writing, personally.

This is almost as bad as when they said Cena took a shot at Christopher Daniels by calling Howie Mandel "the Angel that falls" or whatever it was.

If they wanted to taunt him, just write "Remember 5 years ago when Samoa Joe jobbed to Essa Rios...funny, huh?" or something.

Umaga: He is no regular Joe. He is a Mocha Latte.

I think we can all agree that while it's not a "shot" of any kind, it's certainly a reference or a wink. I mean, there is NO reason to use a "Joe" when describing the character of Umaga, agreed?
