Samoa Joe hasn't been booked for a match yet, but he did say he'll be at the historic event.
The much-anticipated AEW event in London is on August 27. Samoa Joe hasn’t been booked for a match yet, but he did say he’ll be at the historic event. Joe didn’t rule out fighting Zack Sabre Jr. from Great Britain when he was on the Battleground Podcast.
“But Zack, he’s home, right? Does he really want that to happen to him in his backyard? Mum can finally make it out for the matches and I smear you all over the canvas? Do you really wanna ruin Christmas?
“That’s all I’m really saying here because it’s gonna be awkward coming out of summertime and you can’t walk right.
“It’s just me, you know? If I’m thinking about the family events and how I wanna arrange this and I’m Zack, I’m like, ‘Eh, maybe not the best time to really go after Joe, so yeah, we’ll see.”

Joe doesn’t want to ruin any family events, but the current ROH Television Champion was made to fight and knows that someone is just going to be another victim. If it is Sabre Jr. or another fighter from Britain, he casually gave one last warning.
“I know I’m gonna be there and somebody’s gonna have a bad night but hopefully it’s not one of the local boys, you know? Because we all wanna have a pint afterwards.
“Call it kissing cousins and just walk away from it okay, right? No big deal. Everybody is friends and family.”

Zack Sabre Jr. is no new to AEW, as he has participated in both versions of Forbidden Door and lost both times. Joe must be a little angry after losing to CM Punk in the semi-finals of the Owen Hart Cup, so he’ll be glad to get some steam off this weekend at ROH Death Before Dishonor.
