XxFutureLegend112xX Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Samoa Joe's contract with TNA Wrestling has expired, according to multiple sources. The word going around the locker room is that the former TNA World Heavyweight Champion will work tonight's Final Resolution pay-per-view and this week's iMPACT! while both sides negotiate terms of a new deal. He has been with the company since 2005.

20LEgend Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 He should leave, just for sheer awesomeness of a return to ROH Would WWE want him? (it seems he is going to resign) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stennick Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 How did they let this guys contract expire? Seriously I have little faith in the way TNA handles business. They let Nash's contract run out only to try and renegotiate same with Sting (well it does in two weeks), same with Eric Young and so many others. I get not wanting to just throw money at them but why wouldn't you start negotiations three months out? Seems silly to let it expire and then hope and pray that the WWE doesn't just give him as sweetheart deal taking a guy that you guys have spent five years gushing over as a "star in the making" or whatever he is supposed to be. If I was Joe I'd go back to ROH, it'd make ROH more money, and he might make more money as well. I'm sure he'll resign but I'd be excited if he didn't especially since I think he's overrated and someone else could easily be pushed in his place just as effectively.

Hyde Hill Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 He probably won't be winning then... Don't know if that was meant to be ironic but TNA has the odd, and imho bad, habit of letting people win on their way out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slagaholic Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Williams vs AJ was really really good. Loved the finish. Best match on the show yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slagaholic Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Jarrett-Joe = Meeeeeehhhh But believe it or not it's not Jarrett's fault. It's the booking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabataged Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 So Joe's contract is up. Whats the chances of him actually going to WWE? A year ago I would say no chance in hell. But with Punk having some pull in WWE. I think now is his best shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagaholic Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Eh I don't think so. WWE would put him on NXT and he would look as silly as Kaval and Daniel Bryan have. He isn't as skilled as either of them and I wouldn't count on him lasting very long in WWE. 2006 Samoa Joe? Would maybe last a while in WWE. But he's put on a good 30 lbs since then if not more.

Slagaholic Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I can't help but feel like 1/2 of the finishes were changed right before the matches started or during the matches. Even Russo wouldn't have booked that many ****ty finishes ahead of time. The best match was AJ vs Williams and that was also the only match that had a good finish. I'm growing tired of sports entertainment as a whole. TNA would be so much better off if they got rid of all the ****ing overbooked finishes. Just let the guy you want to win pin their opponent 1-2-3. For the love of Christ... Part of what will allow pro wrestling to get hot again is the abolishment of dusty finishes.
