Samoa Joe was the one to go on a rant against Authors of Pain being relentless on the US Champion. Seth Rollins ordered AOP to put the champion through the announce table.
Vic Joseph and WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler moved out of the way, but Samoa Joe decided to hold held his ground for Rey Mysterio. This led a confrontation with Rollins as the leader ordered his goons to finish the task in hand.

Thereafter, AOP double-teamed on WWE Raw to deliver a beat down and put him through the announce table before WWE RAW went off the air.

Additionally, wrestlingINC.com reported the following on Joe’s current status confirming that he will soon be seen in action,
“Samoa Joe was scheduled to be re-evaluated by WWE doctors at next Monday’s RAW from the XL Center in Hartford, but it looks like he’s already been cleared and approved for action.
Joe has worked the red brand announce team with Lawler and Joseph for several weeks now while he’s been on the shelf, but the belief has been that he will be done at the announce table once he returns to action. There’s no word yet on if he will continue to be a guest analyst for WWE Backstage on FS1.”
The source also noted that WWE Raw might be building towards a huge six-man tag team match with AOP and Rollins taking on against Rey Mysterio, Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens in the next few weeks. We will learn more about that in due course as the storyline progresses.
