#3. Samoa Joe has a very specific role in WWE

A jobber to the stars?

Samoa Joe is as legitimate as it gets and WWE is well aware about this. When Samoa Joe was brought into WWE, Triple H told him straight up that he wasn't being paid to train. He was brought in to be a long-term anchor of NXT, but as things changed, he eventually got his main roster opportunity.

Even on the main roster, he's proven time and again that there's nobody more intense on the microphone as he is and his style certainly makes him back up his words. Unfortunately, WWE only seems to view Joe as someone who needs to be built up to put over other stars. The term for it as a "jobber to the stars" and it seems as though WWE doesn't view Joe as a proper main event talent or a World Champion. He's there to put over bigger stars.
