Samoa Joe clarified through a Tweet that he would be back next week and while I am not necessarily a religious person, I must thank the Lord. And this is because Vic Joseph and Jerry Lawler had very little chemistry this week and the Samoan Submission Machine was missed.
Vic Joseph is undoubtedly at the behest of WWE's corporate rules and comes across as someone from the office who's not necessarily speaking for the WWE Universe. Samoa Joe is more a 'man of the people' who is a natural behind the booth as well!

Jerry Lawler made the worst dad jokes in history and also mentioned how he couldn't understand Asuka at all, which was very weird too. As great as he was a few years ago, it is a different era and it needs a different voice at the time.
He just hasn't evolved with the times!
