Samoa Joe headed back to NXT?

[Hidden Blaze]

According to Fightful Select, Samoa Joe could be headed back to NXT. That is the way it was reported. There is a thought backstage that Joe will make a return to WWE’s NXT brand, something he could do prior to his 90-day non-compete clause expiring.

It was said that “numerous NXT talent and staff on Friday” noted that they heard NXT was thinking about bringing in Samoa Joe. It was also noted that “the interest on NXT’s side is for a wrestling role.”

Joe returns to NXT to do what put over guys and say see you later? If they were so interested him they would of tried it all to resign him Months ago. Joe needs to leave WWE so he can get back to the Joe I saw in phases in WWE where he was one of the baddest guys on the Planet.

I don't think and NXT paycheck is near as much tbh from what I've heard. But maybe they really are a THIRD BRAND now

Would be cool if the NXT brand had it's own specific brand budget, would be crazy how many names would go back as opposed to being out right released.

"In an update on this story, officials in NXT have confirmed that Samoa Joe was briefly at the WWE Performance Center this week. We were not told why he was there. We did get confirmation there have been pitches within NXT to use Samoa Joe, however."

WWE: We need to cut people to make more money
Also WWE: We need to rehire those people so they can't go no where.

I personally don't see any exciting or must see opponents for Joe in nxt outside balor. Going to be a no for me.

Edit: compared to what's available out there. That wasn't meant to be a slight at nxt

The fact that he might go backs, makes my believe that he would of gone to NJPW, if it hadn't been for the reason COVID spike.

 

[Cwalker]

Joe/Cole and Joe/Kross would be cool.

But I feel like if he did end up back there, it’d be a brief run of putting people over before transitioning into a producer role

People also go to the pc all the time. Zelina was there to and she never signed afaik. I'll believe this when I see it, looks more like them.hqvng second thoughts.but what do I know

 

[Buffy]

Samoa Joe going to the PC might amount to nothing. Remember Zelina went there too but wasn't signed back.
