Samoa Joe discusses there being more left to do as AEW World Champion.
At AEW WrestleDream this coming Saturday, Samoa Joe will challenge for the AEW World Championship against Hangman Page as he looks to reclaim the championship he lost to Swerve Strickland back at AEW Dynasty 2024.
While speaking to STL Sports Central in a new interview, Samoa Joe was asked if he felt like there was more left on the table as AEW World Champion.
“Oh, you’d be absolutely correct. I mean, anytime that you are not the possessor, of the AEW world championship. You should be taking it personally. So yes, a hundred percent correct. You know, it was not what we would hope it would be, but like all things in the future, this too can be amended.”
Joe would continue, noting that while Hangman Page has been an exemplary person, he believes Hangman is only world champion due to him.
“Well, I think, in the world that I exist, anybody can get it at any time, including Hangman Adam Page. Now let’s be honest here. I mean, Hangman Adam Page, he’s been an exemplary person. But I mean, as far as like being a champion, what I consider a champion, he’s in the position he’s in right now because of what we, The Opps did on his behalf. He has been protected because of us. When you disrespect me, when you stop and don’t recognize the source, when you bite the hand that has fed you so graciously, I mean, it’s only natural that I have to come in here and do a little correction, you know? I understand how the hierarchy works, how things really are in the world and you know WrestleDream that’ll be that correction, he’ll very much understand where he is on the hierarchy, where I stand and where my level is and where his level is and obviously he’s going to realize there are very very different places.”
