WWE Superstar Samoa Joe recently had an interview with Rick Ucchino of Sportskeeda and discussed about several topics including about his in-ring return.
When Rick asked Joe about his return to the square circle, Joe said that current he had no timetable to return in-ring and medical team is doing best to make sure he’s healthy.
Here what Samoa Joe said about his in-ring return:
“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.”
The former two time NXT Champion Samoa Joe also further said that there has been some holdups in availablity of medical personnel due to pandemic that prevented him returning quicker than he can now. He also stated that he’s in-ring career isn’t over and he’s appreciative of of the recovery time.
“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 longshot I’m appreciative of the recovery time. And that my health is being respected at a premium.”
