According to Pwtorch.com, Samoa Joe has signed a full-time deal with the WWE prior to tonight’s live edition of Monday Night RAW. The deal was seemingly sealed after Joe appeared on a taping of Superstars prior to RAW while multiple reports broke on the internet pointing to his exclusive deal WWE.

Joe’s original deal with the company was rumored to allow him to work indy dates and certain scheduled events with Ring of Honor. However impressive opening sales on Samoa Joe merchandise and his early work on NXT prompted Triple H and Vince McMahon to offer Joe a full-time deal with WWE. Ultimately too you’d have to believe ROH’s new television deal with Destination America also had something to do with the new exclusiveness to Joe’s current contract.

With the deal in place it’s assumed Joe will no longer book any further new indy dates as well as appear on any ROH tapings. Reports though suggest he’ll be able to finish up previously scheduled indy dates booked.
