Samoa Joe wasn’t at WWE RAW last night for good reason, not the rumored one that’s been going around.
Initially reported by Sean Ross Sapp on his Fightful Select platform, Samoa Joe’s absence on RAW last night was not due to him being suspended for a Wellness Policy violation. Sapp noted that the response he received was not WWE issuing a statement to him about the suspensions, but rather a top staff member in the company that “vehemently denied” the rumors about more suspensions coming and Joe being named.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider later reaffirms Sapp’s report regarding Joe’s absence not being due to a suspension, adding that Joe is out due to a head injury. A concussion was a concern for Joe last week after the official had him removed from his tag match against Buddy Murphy and Seth Rollins, leaving Kevin Owens to finish the match on his own.
