To say Samoa Joe deserves a championship push is an understatement. He arrived in NXT in 2015 and almost instantly won the NXT championship, putting the company on his back once the likes of Finn Balor, Kevin Owens, among others were called up.

He defeated the likes of Shinsuke Nakamura, Finn Balor, Baron Corbin and Sami Zayn during his run in NXT, he was finally called up in January of 2017 on an episode of Monday Night Raw, taking out Seth Rollins for Triple H.

Since his debut, Samoa Joe has been used mostly as a top guy to get over other top guys while still looking like a monster.

At 38 years old, Samoa Joe isn't getting any younger. WWE should capitalize on the popularity of Samoa Joe since feuding with Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar and give him a strong push towards the Universal Championship or Intercontinental Championship and see what the veteran of the squared circle could do with the championship.

Well that's it from me. Let me know what you think in the comments below!
