Samoa Joe wants to set a new precedent.
Samoa Joe is the new AEW World Champion, winning the title from MJF at AEW Worlds End. Joe is no stranger to holding championships, and his in-ring style has always been in your face and smash mouth wrestling.
Speaking at the AEW Worlds End media scrum, Joe was asked by Graham Matthews of Bleacher Report what kind of precedent he wants to set at AEW World Champion.
"Honestly, the precedent is quite simple. What we do in the ring is the focus of what we put out in front of the fans. Our in-ring talent, what our athletes are able to accomplish inside the squared circle, it’s going to become more of a focus, especially under my reign. We’re going to do things head up and in your face in front of the people. I’m looking forward to this new era. I think in the world of wrestling, there is always controversies, there is always things swirling about, and it’s those people who persevere through it and ensure the fans get the best show for what they came to see. That’s what I’m here to ensure," he said.
Elsewhere during the scrum, Joe said the Triple B Championship that MJF used was going in the trash. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
