Could we finally get a match between Zack Sabre Jr. and Samoa Joe in 2025?
New Japan Pro-Wrestling‘s Zack Sabre Jr. recently sat down with Philip Lindsey of Bleacher Report. When asked about the future possibility of a match with AEW’s Samoa Joe, Zack said he believes that’s a match that the world is clamouring for.
“Joseph of the Samoas. As the sole representative of the Isle of Sheppey, as Sheppey Zack, I think it’s the island battle that the world has been clamouring for,” ZSJ said. “It was obviously unfortunate that that match never materialized.
“Samoa Joe is one of the best wrestlers in the world and had an incredible AEW title reign very recently. Sadly, it will not be for control of television at this point. But obviously, my focus moving forward will be domestically on New Japan, but it’s still a world title.
“And given the close connection and collaborations that happen with AEW, then that is something I would definitely be eager to make happen. We have to find a neutral [venue]… Well, I guess Japan would be a neutral island for both of us. If he wants to make the fight, then I think that’s something I’d be eager for.”
