Mariah May is the reigning AEW Women's Champion and coming off a successful title defense against Thunder Rosa in a Tijuana Street Fight at AEW Worlds End.
May has often voiced her displeasure regarding the rest of the women in the AEW women's division, feeling she is above them as the reigning champion.
However, she does enjoy watching a certain former AEW World Champion when she gets the opportunity.
“Definitely not any of the girls," May told Zaslow Show when asked for her favorite wrestler to watch. "The only girl I like to watch is myself on playback. But if I had to pick one of the guys, I mean, my favorite’s probably Samoa Joe, who I miss. I miss him. Where is he? I think he’s just real. I think he’s so real, every promo he does. I’m not one for nonsense and dreams and fantasies, I say it how it is. I think Samoa Joe, people hated him, they love him now, but he’s someone who just says it how it is. Even the way that he wrestles, it’s so real, it’s so honest. I like that. I like that kind of stuff in a world of nonsense and everybody playing dress up, I like Samoa Joe."
Samoa Joe has been off AEW television since July. It is unknown when he will return.
