JR: “I’m glad to see Samoa Joe win the United States Championship”

“I’m glad to see Samoa Joe win the United States Championship. I’ve thought Joe’s been underutilized for a long time. He’s believable, he’s durable and can have great matches with a variety of people. I’m a big Samoa Joe fan. Congratulations to Joe on the United States title. You think a guy like Joe with so much pride… proud man, loves the wrestling business, he’ll do more than a lot of guys will ever dream of doing to make the United States Championship have value. And I don’t know how many titles in WWE have the value that ideally they would like. One thing will help that value: put the title on somebody and leave it there for a while. I believe that knee-jerk title changes is a definitive sign of lazy booking.”
