Samoa Joe has reportedly been suspended indefinitely by TNA. Apparently the reason for Joe’s suspension is a bad attitude. There is also at least some heat on Joe for his weight not improving.

As reported earlier, Samoa Joe was said to be very upset following his match with Jeff Hardy on iMPACT! last Thursday, which ended in a time limit draw. Joe was furious following the bout because he felt the finish was given away by TNA having ring announcer Jeremy Borash say there were 30 seconds remaining when he specifically asked them not to. According to a source, Joe headed backstage and screamed at Vince Russo while Dixie Carter was present. There are reports that Russo instructed Borash to announce that there were 30 seconds remaining in the match which got Joe irate.

Joe hasn’t worked for the company since the outburst. He wasn’t on hand for last week’s iMPACT! television tapings in Orlando. One source claims Joe yelled at production team members David Sahadi and Keith Mitchell, while others say it was Vince Russo — who reportedly instructed Borash as we noted above.

Meanwhile, another source felt that Joe was right about the finish being given away, but added that he handled the situation poorly. He’s had past backstage outbursts which doesn’t help matters.

As of this writing, we believe that Joe has been suspended by TNA. We’ll keep you posted as we get more.

Sounds like he is getting fed up with the overbooking & writing too. Also sounds like he is trying to protect his characters likeness in the process. Good man, Joe is, for sticking up for his character & what he thinks is right.

Atta boy Joe

He's a fat piece of shit, that's what he is.

Now lets get Homicide to quit, Joe waits out his contract, and BAM 3 Kings back together.

Who was the 3rd king?

I was hoping someone would say that.

Joe can join the SES and save us. Not likely though.

Samoa Joe and Husky Harris could be a tag team...no wait..that would suck.


4 too many floppy titties in one team.

TNA suspends people? Since when?

Not enough cash to support the roster?

I'm pretty sure he's said he'd never jump ship.

Anyone have the interview he said that?

Hell he is too good for them here is hoping for him to come back to Ring of Honor where he belongs. As for weight name a small samoan.

The Rock. While not "small", he did not have the "Samoan Fat", aside from the moob issue, which a few thousand dollars and a jogging suit remedied.

The Usos

Them too.

None of them are small by any means so you are all wrong.

Define "small". Wrestler small or "normal" small?

Please from everyones reactions on here a little bit of fat means that your obese.

What the fuck are you talking about?

He's clearly fat. It's not that big a deal.

I am talking about how everytime someone gains weight or shows a little bit of weight. You mindless fucking morons start harping about how they are obese.

Fat != Obese.

Samoa Joe is fat.

What the world sees of the US, he is fucking anorexic.

Anyway, tbh, Joe boy... WWE bound at any point? Nah, Japan / RoH more likely. Fuck Russo. His time was up ages ago. He should go do some other shit like grow oranges. Surely his over selling of things would work a treat in the retail sector.

So was Umaga,Manu,Husky Harris,Yokozuna, Rikishi, and Giant Haystacks.

Joe has every right to punk out Vince Russo. Dixie carter is too stupid to realize how much of problem he is. Let him go write for CSI or some other bullshit.

I watch the preview for the You Shoot with Dixie Carter and she said every time she hears fire Russo. She will fire someone else.

Okay, we've established who fat wrestlers are. You are apparently in agreeance.

What is the problem here?

Also, Yokozuna was obese.

That is correct. There are multiple fat people in wrestling.

I am tired of everyone being obsessed with body Image its wrestling. Look back 30 years ago not everyone was in great shape.

Don't forget about Matt Hardy and Raven.

Yokozuna was a planet... RIP...

Heh Fat Hardy... Jeff is starting to put on the lbs a lil too...

If they can move, not be sloppy in the ring and generally be not lazy, there is no problem with "fat". Vader was a fat fuck but he could also fuck you up twenty ways from Sunday and looked good doing it.

Thing is, guys like Matt Hardy's in-ring work was being affected to some extent when he put on the pounds. It's more a problem of being out of shape than being fat. You can be fat and in shape.

This :y:

Define fat here because if you are not so roided up or your ribs aren't showing then you are an obese human being.

I always wondered why I was so fucking obese. Must be the Samoan in me.

i dont think wwe have expressed any interest in joe have they?? though seein joe vs kaval in wwe would be tremendous imo.

How did a thread about Joe being suspended turn into a rant about how fat he is?

No one said obese. Fat and obese are not the same thing. Your gripe seems to stem for your inability to understand this.


Also, come on bro. He's clearly fat. LOOK:

That is fat. It's very clearly fat. There is no debate.

Nix that, fat wrestlers period.

When you have double boobs going on, you're in the "fat" zone.

yep... fatty... But still so f'in quick...

What was Umaga? What is Husky Harris and not once has anyone said anything about his weight.

Actually, at least in chat, it's been brought up that Husky Harris is, indeed, fat.

Fat. They're fat. AND THAT'S OK. They're big and beautiful.

The real story here is that Russo is still a f***in idiot who can't book shit.

so all the "men" callin joe fat,... You'd say that to his face would ya???

Yes its is but the first comment after that one chap posted. Well he is a fat piece of shit.

Say that to my face, pussy.

No but he might eat you... The fat kid always gets hungry... I'm just sayin' ...
:yes::yes::yes:

i recall joe punkin some fan out at a live event lol

I plan to eat Sammy G if I ever meet him, because he called me fat.

Maybe he meant PHAT Xero...

So lets curse the name of Vincent Russo Esquire.

Joe's gonna kill you

What is going on here?

What the fuck happened in here?

I dunno but I think someone called me fat too.... love it when threads get like this sometimes...

Damn you, VSG

So its great that a TV writer decided to give away the finish of the match. He might as well come before the show starts and tell them the results.

THIS IS THE WORST THING TO HAVE HAPPENED IN PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING.

I do love Samoa Joe and I'm glad he's trying to stand up for himself and, lets face it, logic in TNA. He could never make it in WWE though, he's just not their type of wrestler.

I think we should just unite and say, he is fat. but the best wrestler to be fat. By miles.

Ok

Just cause hes fat dont mean we cant like him, calm down son.

NOT AS MUCH AS YOU LOVE CHEESEBURGERS

Got him good!

Change your name to jfattyg.

Hey man, you called me out.

XERO'S GONNA EAT YOU

Yes, the only reason anyone would ever call Samoa Joe fat is because his ribs aren't showing.

Nevermind the D cup tits and 17 fat rolls.

Fat or not I love most of his work.

hahahhahahaha good show old bean.

Samoa Joe suspended? Hell froze over, pigs are flying over my house, the apocalypse has officially begun and I'm pretty sure I just became a monkey's uncle...

Everyone get ready for NXT season 3's breakout star: Joe Seanoa!

Oh and he's not fat, he's fluffy!

Samoa Joe's not fat.















Mickie James is.

Tag with Husky Harris. Joe and the Fat Guy

book it

Lol, that needs to go up on the "wrestler Lookalike thread"


Am I the only one seeing it strange that there trying to call Samoa Joe on "not wanting to lose weight", yet he still can move in the ring? Both Jeff Hardy and Tomko have put on weight and gotten sloppier in the ring and havent gotten called on it?

I can see that as well. Also, you got to remember Big Van Vader and Bam Bam Bigelow.

I could see Samoa Joe leaving TNA pretty soon. The guy has been allowed to really showcase himself there at times, but it wasn't the match made in heaven that either party thought it would be, I don't think. Joe has got some good friends in the WWE. I believe he is close to both John Cena and CM Punk. If he wanted a job there, I think he would get one. To be honest, I could see him paired with The Usos as a sort of mini-stable.

But I think Joe cares more about his creative freedom than his wallet, so perhaps he might go to Japan, or even return to ROH or join that new Florida promotion. Also, a skinny Samoa Joe just doesn't seem as cool to me as a fat Joe who just kicks the shit out of people.

wel JB shouldn't of said that so I agree with Joe there, otherwise he's a donkeybag for going nuts backstage.

OMG, I CAN"T BELIEVE THAT THEY SUSPEN...

Yea don't really care.

For the record, the announced time limit was the wrong call to make. As soon as Borash said it, you knew what was going to happen, and it pissed off the crowd and took the wind out of the sails for the rest of the match. If it happened as it did without the early announcement, people would have been into their wild brawl, been annoying about the time limit, but really wanted to see the next match between the two.

That's okay. TNA would just bring in Lex Luger to fill the void and create a new buzz for Monday Night Wars Reloaded.

Punk is the 3rd king

This would've been funny had you just completely used different words.

Well then here is the question, would guys like Cyber Kong and former Eliminator Kronus be considered fat? Kronus was around 300 lbs but could hit that 450 better than Justin Gabriel. Husky and Joe are agile and quick in the ring and well, Cyber Kong could probibly throw one of those "Smart cars" at you

Yes. Let's hope Joe goes from making good money, to wrestling for $10 bucks in front of 20 people.

Let's face it, working for ROH won't provide enough food for Joe to eat.

Cyber Kong isn't fat. He isn't ripped, either. He's just right for his build, in fact.

Kronus was kinda sorta fat but I wouldn't call it fat. Chubby works better, he was borderline.

You can be fat and agile and/or strong.

Though remember height matters, as well as the amount of muscle. If you're 300 pounds and ripped, you aren't fat. If you're 300 pounds and over 6'5 you likely aren't in the fat category, either. Nash and Taker aren't fat, for example.
