Samoa Joe Hopes NXT Is ‘Always Changing And Evolving’

Samoa Joe wants to see the NXT brand continue to evolve and hopes it’s never the “same old” show.

Samoa Joe recently spoke with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated and he was asked about the rumors that Vince McMahon wants to change the NXT product and focus on younger talent. Joe said that he hopes to see an ever-changing NXT product, and says it’s always been a brand to try new things, and wants to see that continue.

“I hope NXT is never the same as it used to be. I hope NXT is always changing and evolving and experimenting and trying new things. So much has been done in NXT, so many barriers have been crossed and so many new, amazing superstars have been introduced. It’s always been a place for experimentation, it’s always been a place for something new. I hope it continues to be that,” Joe said. “I hope it’s never the same old NXT.”

Joe also spoke about his in-ring return this week, explaining why he’s making his comeback on the NXT brand.

“I’m coming back for the fans that want to see Samoa Joe. I get to do what I love,” Joe said, “and that’s perform for the WWE Universe and for fans around the world. I have a committed relationship with this industry. I’m back around the energy. It always lifts me up when I’m around it. There are a lot of young, hungry individuals ready to show the world what they’re about, and that kind of enthusiasm is infectious.”

Samoa Joe challenges Karrion Kross for the NXT Championship at NXT TakeOver 36 on Sunday night.
