10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Feb 10)

10. Samoa Joe's Raw Suit Was Intentional

It's far from common for the hard-hitting Samoa Joe to don a suit and tie when he's heading to the ring, but that's exactly what the 'Samoan Submission Machine' did on Raw. Clearly proud to make his first full entrance onto WWE's largest televised stage, a suited and booted Joe had a Mafia-like feel to him this past Monday.

According to The Wrestling Observer, the former NXT Champion's choice of attire for the evening was wholly deliberate; looking to present the Samoan as a hitman who was there on behalf of Triple H, WWE presented Joe like he was some kind of special agent.

There will be those wondering if Joe simply bust out the suit because debuting on Raw was a big moment for him personally. It seems that isn't the case at all; he was instructed to dress smartly for a snappy in-ring promo and subsequent confrontation with Roman Reigns.

It'll be interesting to see if WWE continue this costume tweak in the coming weeks and months. There's no doubt the hitman presentation feeds the ongoing story involving Triple H and Seth Rollins.
