This week Rachel and Kath zero in on Samoa Joe’s career in 2005 and 2006. (They were two really, really, really good years, okay!) They talk Joe vs Kobashi, his TNA feud with Kurt Angle, and the IWA Midsouth classic with Necro Butcher. Plus: what kind of restaurant Joe should open, CM Punk hot takes, and Sylvia Plath.
Materials Discussed Includes: Samoa Joe vs. Kenta Kobashi in Ring of Honor 10/01/2005, Samoa Joe vs. Necro Butcher in IWA Midsouth 6/11/2005 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMU5S9VHhJM), and Samoa Joe vs. Kurt Angle in TNA 12/10/2006 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmSj54Ls6fQ).
