Samoa Joe has been out of action for quite a while and has been doing an excellent job as a color commentator for Monday Night RAW. However, will we be seeing him back in the ring anytime soon? When Joe spoke with Sportskeeda about the subject, he said,
“As far as the timetable, no. But I just want to reassure people that you know this point, WWE medical is doing the best for my health and my well-being, and I’m appreciative of it, so we’re taking our time. We’re making sure that I’m as healthy as I can be. And we are… Yeah, I think that’s essentially it, you know, I’m not putting a timetable on it because the type of injury is not something that I want to rush, obviously, for obvious reasons. So, yeah, I mean, that’s essentially the update.”
Joe added,
“I mean, and obviously, too, there’s been some holdups from a technical standpoint with the pandemic going on and availability of medical personnel, but for the most part, we’re taking a careful, measured approach, and though I don’t think my in-ring career is over by a long shot I’m appreciative of the recovery time. And that my health is being respected at a premium.”
Samoa Joe has been out of action for over a year after suffering a concussion, then was suspended for 30 days after a company Wellness Policy Violation.
