Jim Ross comments on Samoa Joe winning the AEW World Championship.
Joe was able to cement his legacy in the company by capturing the AEW World Championship at the Worlds End pay-per-view. This is Joe's third time winning a title in the company, as he is a former two-time TNT Champion.
On the latest episode of the Grilling JR podcast, Jim Ross commented on Joe's world title win, saying that he liked the title change.
“Joe’s been, over the years, he’s proven to be very durable, and his work is believable, so I’m a big Samoa Joe proponent. He’s the right man for the job, it seems like. He can have good matches with just about anybody, as a babyface or a heel, which is important, to have the ability to dance with different partners. So I like that move. I like the fact that Joe’s the champion, and I like the fact that he has the ability to work with just about anybody, and he is a veteran. He provides leadership, physicality. You can’t see through this work. He’s strong in that regard. So good for him. Good for Joe. He’s the kind of guy you want to be pulling the wagon, not only because he’s strong enough to pull the wagon, but he’s smart enough as a veteran to make it work for him and the company."
Joe is set to appear on the January 10 episode of AEW Dynamite. Fans can check out the current lineup for that show here.
