Thinking that Dwayne is not the greatest samoan wrestler of all time is being deliberately contrarian.

Dave's gimmick is being deliberately contrarian. This is an unusual moment of honesty from him.

You know, I got so used to it being his name, but I guess Samoa Joe WOULD be Samoan. So yeah, he's definitely up there. Definitely has a better legacy than Umaga and Roman, and definitely fucking Rikishi.
>>18959911
Dwayne didn't start being Samoan until Roman got pops during his Chief gimmick.

Now YOU'RE being the contrarian, Anon. Just Joe's already been forgotten since he left the WWE main roster, and it's only gotten worse since he got fired from NXT.

It’s funny how Samoa Joe’s gimmick isn’t being Samoan but every Samoan is WWE’s gimmick is that they’re Samoan.

calling samoa joe the GOAT samoan is maybe the best smark opinion possible, so of course dave wouldn't have it, he's actually doing an advanced double contrarian technique here

i didn't know this. it explains why he always calls him dwayne instead of rock. which was very funny to me because it was like he knew him but i wouldn't have expected him to actually know him like that.

It’s almost as if Joe is the only Samoan in the business who isn’t a nepobaby or something.

Roman took over a decade to get good and STILL could not get over without a manager, stable AND outsider like Sami to elevate his dumbass. Even if you wanted to act like a jackass and pretend it was all him, the majority of his career was DOGSHIT. Even during the Shield all he was was the Silent Enforcer who closed out shows and didn't do anything special.

i can think of only 5 polynesians, not even samoans but all pacific islanders, in this business, out of the dozens of them, that are not somehow at least tangentially related to the rock
>xyon quinn
>dakota kai
>toa linoa
>dominik mysterio
>samoa joe
and joe has even said he might be very distantly related

Samoa Joe is a top 5 wrestler for me but I am fully aware you have to be retarded to rank any Polynesian period over the Rock.

Dwayne got his first big tribal tattoo while Roman was getting recruited by Georgia Tech.
