Rollins said that cashing in Money In The Bank is his favourite WWE moment Rollins who started using the Pedigree finisher – originally made famous by his former mentor Triple H – during his stint as a member of the Authority was asked why he still uses the manoeuvre to which the former NXT champion replied that it's a sign that there is no replacement for Seth Rollins. He said:
"No, you know what, let's talk about that finisher for a minute. Look, the reason I did the pedigree to begin with, was as a tribute to Triple H. So now, every single time I deliver a pedigree, it's me sticking my fist up in the air and telling him to stick it up his rear-end. He thinks he can stick it to me by anointing Kevin Owens as the new guy? There is no replacement for Seth Rollins.”
He did, however, tease a new finisher when he does get settle his score with Triple H.
“So, every single pedigree from now until I drop Triple H on his big, stupid nose, that's gonna mean something, that's gonna mean something. That's me sticking it to the man, sticking it to Triple H. So no, no new finisher, not until I'm done with Triple H."
Speaking of the former NXT champion Samoa Joe who has been rumoured to make his main roster debut soon, Rollins said that he would love to face the former TNA champion once Joe is done with his NXT run:
"Uh, I'd love to face Samoa Joe, Dawn. It's been uh, it's been a long time since I've been in the ring with Joe. I think we've both grown a lot as performers, and uh, I think we'd actually tear the house down. So, hopefully, um, you know, once Joe's done with his stuff in NXT, and uh, he can come make his way up here and we can have a good fight."
moa Joe was one of those names who many thought they would never see in the WWE.
However, as the brand of NXT was proliferating, it began attracting some of the names that we thought we might never see in the WWE. Ringside’s latest report indicates that one of those names could be Samoa Joe withBraun Strowmanas a possible opponent.
A little over a year ago, Joe showed up at the end of NXT TakeOver: Unstoppable confronting then NXT Champion Kevin Owens to a rousing ovation. Later on, his impressive merchandise sales forced WWE’s hand and the company signed him to a full-time deal.
So far, he has had an impressive run in NXT performing initially as a face and then as a heel. He won the NXT Championship defeating his former tag team partner Finn Balor in a live event in Lowell, Massachusetts.
The Samoan submission Machine lost his NXT Championship to Shinsuke Nakamura at NXT TakeOver: Back to Brooklyn.
Samoa Joe is still dominating the scene on the WWE’s developmental show and is expected to get the return match vs The King of Strong Style when they northwards at NXT’s next special event – NXT Takeover: Toronto.
It is more than likely that he won’t be going over in the match and reclaim his title as he is waiting in the wings to be the next NXT member to be called up to the main roster. Right now, WWE could benefit immensely from having Joe show up on either brand.
On RAW, there’s a lack of top babyface singles star apart from Reigns and Rollins. It is rumoured that both Ambrose and Cena may take time off after No Mercy so the main event scene on the Blue Brand will be incredibly vulnerable. Joe can be effectively utilised in any of those situations and his presence would definitely benefit either brand .
..
It has been rumoured for a while now that Joe was going to get called up to the main roster in the fall of 2016. In an interesting development to this story, Ringside News is reporting that the latest storyline of Braun Strowman demanding more competition will lead to the much anticipated main roster debut of Samoa Joe.
The former Wyatt Family member has been squashing jobbers left and right over the past 3 months as a member of RAW roster. This could be an intriguing feud if booked right and the opportunity to work with a guy with the experience,skill and talent of Samoa Joe will definitely help Braun.
It was also rumoured that fellow Wyatt Family member Luke Harper could be the one to confront Strowman. However, if this story is to be believed he may very well end up being one of the many that he has vanquished. .
Which brand do you think Samoa Joe will be a part of once he is called up to the main roster?
