This past Sunday night’s WWE Fastlane saw WWE United States Champion Samoa Joe retain his WWE United States Tile over Rey Mysterio, Andrade & R-Truth in his first-ever title defense in a Fatal 4-Way Match. Below is a post-match video of Kayla Braxton talking to Samoa Joe and asking him what the win meant to him.
“What did it mean for me? Kayla, for once this is a very, very excellent question,” Joe said. “You see, tonight was about setting a precedence. Tonight was about getting the world used to how things are going to go from now on. I walk to that ring as the US Champion, I stomp out anybody they put in front of me and I walk out, just like I walked in. Now Kayla, in celebration of your excellent questions, of your journalistic integrity, I’ll give you a little bonus, a little prediction for the future – that any man who decides that they have what it takes to be a US Champion, to any man who lies to himself when he looks in the mirror and says, ‘I, I can beat Samoa Joe and take from him,’ Know this… you may come and you may try, but you will fail… and your bonus prize, make sure you take a nice little nap.”
It was previously reported that The Hardy Boys have been wanting to face SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos at WrestleMania 35. After The Usos retained their SmackDown Tag Team titles last Sunday night at WWE Fastlane, Matt Hardy was quick to congratulate them on Twitter. There have been rumors that The Hardys vs. The Usos or a multi-team match will be taking place at WrestleMania 35 with The SmackDown Tag Team Titles on the line. Matt Hardy & The Usos had the following exchange after Fastlane last Sunday night:
Congrats, @WWEUsos. Cya soon. #WWEFastlane
