Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.
We’ve reached the end of our three-part series on Samoa Joe, and we’re talking about his time in WWE. We start in NXT with classic title matches against Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura. Then we move to the main roster and watch two world title matches. We talk about how Joe was misused on the main roster and his eventual return to NXT. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about:
- Wrestling themes as gym songs
- Crowd chants
- Office supplies
- Comfy gear
And a lot more.
