Cena and Orton off the road, Samoa Joe's WWE status
- This weekend’s WWE house shows will not be featuring either US Champion John Cena or Randy Orton. It’s not believed they are injured and are either resting up or doing other WWE related appearances.
WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins will be headlining one set of shows against Roman Reigns, while Ryback, Dean Ambrose and Rusev will be the main attractions on the other set of shows. It was originally supposed to be Daniel Bryan vs Ryback, but Bryan is still out injured.
- According to a Wrestling Observer report Samoa Joe is expected to start with NXT in June, but the deal has yet to be formally signed. As previously noted Joe was backstage at last week’s NXT TV tapings to have a meeting with Triple H. The process may be taking a while because there are all sorts of medical tests that new talent have to pass before the paperwork can be signed.
