Samoa Joe has been away from WWE television for nearly four months now. He last competed on the January 8th episode of Monday Night Raw where he locked horns with Rhyno. Joe suffered an injury during the match and has been out of action as a result.

Joe was reportedly backstage during last week’s Raw but he did not make an on-screen appearance at the event.

The Samoan Submission machine was interviewed by Renee Young at the Hall of Fame. During the interview, Joe talked about being injured and said that he was looking forward to his return.

This was Joe’s first WWE television appearance after being sidelined due to the foot injury mentioned earlier.

What’s next?

According to several reports, Samoa Joe is currently scheduled to appear at the April 16th edition of Monday Night Raw. The event will take place at the XL Centre in Hartford, Connecticut. However, he is more likely to return on the episode of Raw after WrestleMania.

WrestleMania 34 will take place on April 08, 2018 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Author’s take

When Joe finally makes his in-ring return, it will be a big boost for the WWE. It will be interesting to see how the former NXT Champion copes with ring-rust. It will also be exciting to see how WWE decides to use him after WrestleMania.
