"Fake tough guy" - Top AEW star sends a warning to Samoa Joe
Max Caster will take on Samoa Joe on AEW Dynamite on Wednesday. Prior to their match, the Acclaimed member sent a warning to the Samoan Submission Machine.
Samoa Joe showed up at the end of Ring Of Honor's recent pay-per-view Supercard of Honor. He made the save for Jonathan Gresham, who had just defeated Bandido to become the Unified Ring of Honor World Champion.
Gresham was attacked by Jay Lethal and Sonjay Dutt before the three-time NXT Champion made his return to his old hunting ground. After coming face-to-face with Jay Lethal, he choked out Sonjay Dutt. Post-show, Tony Khan announced that Samoa Joe is All Elite and will take part in the Owen Hart Tournament.
The former WWE star will take on Max Caster in a qualifying match, a star who has seen his stock rise over the past year with his witty raps and improved work inside the ring. Before his match, Caster sent a message to his upcoming opponent on Twitter:
"Yo! Listen! Samoa Joe is NOT gonna 'kill' me. If he does, he's going to prison. And a fake tough guy like Joe doesn't want that. He's scared straight #AEWDynamite #MicDrop."
🗣️ Yo! Listen! 🗣️
Samoa Joe is NOT gonna "kill" me. If he does, he's going to prison. And a fake tough guy like Joe doesn't want that. He's scared straight 😂
