Steve Austin Praises Samoa Joe, Says He Is “One Of The Best There Is”

If you ask WWE fans who from NXT is the next likely call up to the main roster, a large majority would probably say Samoa Joe. Joe has been wrestling for over 16 years and is one of the most talented guys in the company. It appears as if Joe has made a big fan of Stone Cold Steve Austin, who praised him on a recent episode of his podcast: The Steve Austin Show.

Here is what he said:

“I’d love to see him work with Brock, AJ Styles, any of the top guys I’d like to see Joe work with. And for the people who say he aint fancy enough, or he aint got a good enough body…. I’m talking about a worker. Everything in this business is subjective, but for my eyes, from where I’ve been, I like the hell out of Samoa Joe and I’d love to see him on the big stage. He needs to be in there with the best they got, because he is one of the best there is, period” (Source: The Steve Austin Show).

Austin continued:

“The guy looks like a piece of granite out there, forward tilt, always moving forward, afraid of nothing, mean streak. He can wrestle with the best of them, he’s smooth, he’s everything” (Source: The Steve Austin Show).

Some high praise from the Texas Rattlesnake! I think Joe will be called up to the main roster very soon. Both RAW or Smackdown LIVE could use him!
