Anthony will soon feature as the main lead in the 2024 film Captain America: Brave New World. According to Samoa Joe, beating up Captain America has helped him in a great way, because he can now look at his kids and say he has beaten Cap when he needs them to do chores at home.
“Oh, it’s great because I’m whipping him right, and then the whole time when I’m at home, my kids are with me, and I’ll say, ‘Do you see what daddy did to Captain America? So can you get that trash out?’ So you know, Anthony’s helped me keep my home in order, and I appreciate that,” said Joe.
“He took some lumps for me, and it’s a little rough and tumble, but you know, Anthony, he’s a giving guy like that, he’s that type of dude. So I appreciate that.”- he further said.
