WWE Rumor Roundup: Terrible news on AJ Styles' future, Top Superstar suspended, Big title change canceled - 27th January 2020

#3 Samoa Joe injured on RAW

As if AJ Styles' injury didn't cause enough headaches for the WWE management, the company now has to deal with the news of another top Superstar potentially being sidelined due to an injury.

On the RAW after Royal Rumble, Samoa Joe teamed up with Kevin Owens for a RAW Tag Team titles match against Seth Rollins and Buddy Murphy.

Joe injured himself as a result of a bad landing from an attempted suicide dive on Buddy Murphy. The Samoan Submission machine couldn't get up instantly and the WWE medics made the call to take him out of the match.

PWInsider reports that Joe suffered a legitimate injury and it was not a part of the booking of the match. Joe being taken out of the match forced the remaining Superstars in the match to improvise and get to the finish.

The decision to remove Joe from the match was made by WWE medical personnel and was 100% legitimate, not something that was booked as part of the match. Everyone involved was pretty much calling the remainder of the bout on the fly.

As things stand, Joe is undergoing medical eximination and we should know the full scope of his injury soon.
