Teh Internet's resident wrestling nerd The Nude Smurf, checking in live on location from Western Connecticut State University with the answer to the pressing question "How come Samoa Joe listed as being from Ring of Honor and not TNA?"

The answer, folks, is quite simple: ROH is not booked by Vince Russo, Jeff Jarrett or Dutch Mantell. If we took the risk of putting in TNA's Samoa Joe in the tournament, by the middle of the second round we could have a contender that is wearing a pink tu-tu and breastfeeding the child of Sting and Christie Hemme while everyone in THA IMPACT ZOOOOONE chanted "THIS-IS-AWE-SOME!" and Don West tried to sell us Tiger Woods rookie cards for THE LOW LOW MOTHERFUCKING LOW PRICE OF TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS AND NINETY-SIX CENTS.

ROH's Samoa Joe just kicks people in the face real hard and drops them on their head even harder. This is, in actuality, much more badass, and what we like the people in our tournament to resemble. You know, the same tournament that has The Golden Girls, because all know that when Estelle Getty comes into the kitchen, "YOU'RE-GONNA-GET-YOUR-FU-CKIN'-COO-KIES-BAKED! *clap clap clapclapclap clapclapclapclap clapclap*"
