Let's make this birthday one to remember.

46 years old (Born on March 17, 1979)

Happy Birthday, Samoa Joe! The man who made choking people out look like an art form. From dominating Ring of Honor as World Champion to your legendary 18-month undefeated streak in TNA between 2005 and 2006—your opponents probably still wake up sweating from nightmares about the Coquina Clutch.

Whether you're delivering bone-crushing submissions or intimidating promos, you've always been a force inside (and outside) the ring. Here's hoping this birthday is just like your wrestling style: fierce, unforgettable, and leaving everyone else tapping out early. Cheers to another year of making grown men reconsider their career choices!
