Samoa Joe Tweeted the following:

The word that Joe was injured started when he was pulled from physical activity from TNA's live event loop a couple weeks ago. He was scheduled to work shows, however, a storyline was done where Rockstar Spud came out with a "doctor's note" and stated he was injured and for the referee to count him out.

He was scheduled to work last week's Impact Wrestling taping but was pulled from the announced 10-man Gauntlet Match.

Joe's contract with TNA Wrestling is up in December 2014 and he is commanding interest from Jeff Jarrett'sGlobal Force Wrestling. Click here for the latest on that.
