Big NXT star was originally planned for WWE Raw tonight
Added 2021-09-13 15:09:30 +0000 UTCAnything can happen in the World Wrestling Federation. Or World Wrestling Entertainment.
Sunday night, Samoa Joe announced that he was relinquishing the WWE NXT Championship due to an injury and not being cleared by WWE medical. Fightful Select has learned this morning that an original Raw script called for him to actually appear on tonight's show. We're not sure what Joe was scheduled to do or if he'll remain on the program, but we were told it was in relation to promoting the relaunch of NXT on Tuesday night.
Fightful will work to find out more about what Joe was slated to do, but some NXT talent had been made aware of internal rumors that Joe was planned to appear.
