In an interview with the New York Post, AEW star and ROH TV Champion Samoa Joe was asked about the Blackpool Combat Club, which is an AEW stable consisting of Bryan Danielson, and Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, and William Regal.
Joe was complimentary of the men but not sure he would be able to work in the group due to his solitary nature.
There are a lot of men within that stable I have a great amount of respect from and some I’m learning to acquire respect for.
Obviously some would think that it would be a perfect fit for me, but I’ve never been one to be a very good teammate so I don’t know how that would work.
To the reporter’s surprise, Samoa Joe announced he only wants to work a few years before taking on an unpaid, behind-the-scenes role in the WWE.
Joe said:
It’s a difficult choice not because ‘oh, there’s this specific thing.
No, there are a lot of things. Knowing my luck it will be some combination, hybrid, kind of all those things kind of rolled into one and I’d have bitten off more than I can chew, but alas, that is life.
