The Destroyer has a reputation for being a “stone-cold” killer, and his incredible facial expressions usually convey that with a smolder or a monstrous vein inducing rage assertion. However, even Samoa Joe can turn into a fanboy if he happens to run into the right wrestling legend.
Well…it happened.
That’s Samoa Joe with Japanese wrestling legend Shinjiro Otani, who was the first ever WCW World Cruiserweight champion, and a former IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Champion for New Japan. He continues to compete with Pro-Wrestling Zero-One (also in Japan) to this day, where he and Joe first met.
LOOK HOW HAPPY THE SUBMISSION MACHINE LOOKS THOUGH.
