Samoa Joe Receives New ROH World TV Championship Belt

Samoa Joe received a hero’s welcome in Chicago, Illinois, as he was presented with a brand new Ring of Honor TV Championship on the June 22 episode of Ring of Honor TV. The footage showcased the debut episode of AEW Saturday Collision, which took place on June 17 and featured the significant moment.

Ring of Honor Chairman Tony Khan, along with the board of directors comprising Jerry Lynn and Stokely Hathaway, handed Joe the newly designed championship belt. The updated design now aligns with the aesthetics of the other prestigious Ring of Honor World Championships, adding a sense of unity and prestige to the title.

During the presentation, Stokely Hathaway humorously attempted to take credit for the championship, but it was clear that Joe was the rightful recipient of the honor. In a teaser for later in the night, Joe expressed his intentions to confront someone and vowed to break “his boy’s face,” indicating an intense encounter on the horizon.

Samoa Joe’s reign as the ROH World TV Champion has been nothing short of remarkable, as he has held the title for an impressive 435 days. His championship victory came on April 13, 2022, when he defeated Minoru Suzuki in a memorable match on AEW Dynamite. Joe’s year-long dominance as the TV Champion has solidified his reputation as one of the most formidable competitors in the world of professional wrestling.
