WWE: No 205 Live for Next Two Weeks, Samoa Joe Close to Returning to Ring

205 Live

There will be no live episodes of 205 Live for the next two Fridays, according to Dave Meltzer.

Instead, WWE will air “Best of” 205 Live shows in the time slot after SmackDown on WWE Network.

Samoa Joe

SPOILER ALERT:

There are spoilers for next week’s Raw in this post, so skip it if you don’t want to know.

Samoa Joe looks like he’s very close to returning to the ring from his broken thumb, which has kept him out since September 9. According to PWInsider, his return is imminent.

Joe, who has been doing commentary on Raw for the past few weeks, took part in an angle during last night’s Raw taping, which will air next Monday.

At the end of the show, AOP were going to give Rey Mysterio a powerbomb through the announce table, but Joe defiantly stood up from his commentary position and wouldn’t move out of the way, so AOP attacked him and powerbombed him through the announce table instead. So it looks like he’s going to get involved in an angle/feud with AOP and possibly Seth Rollins.
