Will Samoa Joe return to the ring before the Royal Rumble?
Samoa Joe is a former NXT Champion, but despite striking fear into the hearts of a number of wrestlers throughout his time in WWE, 'The Samoan Suplex Machine' has been behind the commentary desk over the past few weeks.

Following Dio Madden's attack at the hands of Brock Lesnar, the former Impact Wrestling star took the reins on the commentary desk, until last week when he managed to anger The Authors of Pain.
AOP were helping Seth Rollins handle some business against Rey Mysterio when Joe made it his business and was then sent through the announce table. Joe was out of action with a broken finger and it appears that he is now ready to make his return since he has been wrestling at live events and has picked up a feud with Seth Rollins and his new bodyguards.

It will be interesting to see if Samoa Joe is able to get some revenge on AOP and make his return to the ring ahead of the Rumble because he would definitely be one of the dark horses to win the whole thing and go on to fight for one of WWE's most coveted championships at WrestleMania.
