Samoa Joe would have his first main roster debut on WWE Superstars, where he faced off against Tyson Kidd. However, a botched muscle buster would end Tyson Kidd’s career and almost killed him.
Kidd spoke to The Winston Whig-Standard, where he talked about Joe’s botch and if he resents him for what he did. He revealed that wrestlers never intend to hurt each other. Joe even visited him in the hospital and was apologetic about the whole situation.
“There’s an unwritten protocol when you hurt somebody. And when I say you hurt somebody, obviously it’s not on purpose, but it still happens. I know I’ve rocked guys before where I checked on them after to make sure everything’s cool.
“Joe did come to the hospital that night.
“We spoke that night. We would text throughout the time I was hurt, but I only saw him face to face when I got hurt and when I did see him that night, things were still up in the air with the severity of my injury. He was definitely remorseful and I think we all are when we hurt somebody and when somebody gets hurt under our watch.
“Stuff happens. We perform at such a high level so many days a week that things are going to happen. We just have to do the best we can to take care of each other and to let a person know that we’re there for them when they do get hurt.
“My first day back as a producer after two years, once I was out of meetings, he was the first guy who I Terminator-style sought out and found. And we had a very good talk and we’re friends. We get along great.”
So it seems that Tyson Kidd holds no resentment towards Samoa Joe for ending his career.
