WWE News Roundup: Veteran on The Fiend vs. Roman Reigns, Otis' real voice, NXT star wants Becky Lynch to return (July 2, 2021)

#2 Why Samoa Joe loved choking out WWE RAW Tag Team Champion AJ Styles

Samoa Joe and AJ Styles share a long history that goes beyond their WWE careers. At the moment, Styles is an active in-ring competitor as the RAW Tag Team Champion alongside his 7ft 3in ally, Omos. Joe was released from WWE back on April 15, 2021. However, he returned to NXT as an enforcer just two months later.

During a recent appearance on Out of Character with Ryan Satin, Samoa Joe revealed the bizarre reason as to why he loved to trap AJ Styles in the Coquina Clutch. Apparently, it's all related to Styles' "impeccably smelling" hair conditioner.

"AJ [Styles] always has impeccably smelling conditioner in his hair. It's always very pleasant for me. I get a little lavender, a little lilac with my pain and agony. It's a rare thing, you don't get that combination and you can't buy that in the street," said Samoa Joe. "It's a specialized and happy experience and I get to enjoy it every time I wrap my arms around AJ's neck. He's number one. You can't beat that. Sometimes, the shea butter, I'm not a big fan when he puts that in his hair, it doesn't have the same scent. When he goes lavender or when he goes to the body shop and gets the good stuff, trust me, it's a great night for me."
