Samoa Joe Has Parted Ways With TNA Impact Wrestling

That’s right, folks. Everyone’s favourite multi-year blindspot has reached the end of his contract, and will not be re-signing with TNA. Or, as most people in TNA call it, “resigning.” See, Gunner? This is where you use that word.

Hopefully Samoa Joe treats his “family” like I treat all of the members of mine I don’t like: awkwardly listening to updates about them from his mom while never being in the same room with them ever again.

Since that tweet, rumours have been flying about where he’ll go next. Going back to Ring of Honor seems the most probable, as they’re the Detroit Red Wings of “getting up there” independent wrestlers who were on TV once. People seem to really want Joe in NJPW as well, joining his Global Force Wrestling bro AJ Styles. Personally, I just hope wherever he goes, he takes a hard pass on people drawing a dick on his face for “easy cultural identification.”

Oh yeah, they really TNA CROSSED THE LINE with that one. But that’s okay. You’ll always be the Cool Guy Sunglasses emoji to me, Joe:
