Samoa Joe Makes WWE Raw Debut - Attacks Seth Rollins
Two-time NXT Champion attacks Seth Rollins at Triple H's behest.
Monday's Raw saw the red brand get a new major player as Samoa Joe made his main roster debut, attacking Seth Rollins.
Rollins's long quest to get his hands on Triple H - which began after HHH cost Rollins a Universal Title match last August - seemed to have come to an end on Monday. Rollins came face-to-face with Raw commissioner Stephanie McMahon, who promised that her husband would be in the building later on. Sure enough, Triple H took to the ring to address Rollins, telling him that while he had tried to transition to a career as a corporate "creator," Rollins was forcing him to revert to being the "destroyer."
With Triple H looking poised to fight, Rollins came out to grant his wish. As he headed down to the ring, though, Samoa Joe attacked him from out of nowhere, throwing Rollins into the ring steps and the guardrail. He then brought the former WWE Champion into the ring, choking him out with the Coquina Clutch.
This looks to set up a Rollins-Joe match at Fastlane, although what path Joe takes for WrestleMania is anybody's guess.
