According to Sean Radican at PW Torch, Samoa Joe has signed a full time deal with WWE. It was reported by a source that after being very impressed with Joe's performance at the NXT tapings, as well as merchandise sales that surpassed expectations, Vince and HHH decided to offer the full time deal. Joe will finish up his commitments with indies, and then report to either NXT or the main roster immediately.

Samoa Joe ended his 10 year tenure with TNA Wrestling on February 17. After appearing at various independent promotions, he returned to Ring of Honor March 1. On May 20, Joe appeared at the NXT event Unstoppable. Joe had signed a unique contract that allowed him to work for independent promotions, while also appearing on NXT TV. This deal included Ring of Honor because their television didn't air nationally. This changed last Wednesday when it was announced Ring of Honor would begin airing on Destination America prior to TNA.
