Former AEW World Champion Samoa Joe, who had been off AEW programming since July 2024, made his return to the company during Wednesday’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
Following the scheduled Christian Cage vs. HOOK match leading to The Patriarchy attempting to attack HOOK and Katsuyori Shibata, Samoa Joe’s music came out to make the save and make his return to AEW.
Samoa Joe is back!
