WWE sources have confirmed Samoa Joe will not be cleared in time for the Royal Rumble. They had obviously been lining him up to work with John Cena, so the timing is very unfortunate. We are told there is no timeframe for his return as of this morning.
Kevin Owens was again held off the Smackdown live events over the weekend due to an ongoing injury issue, which sources have stated is a back issue. He's been out of action since the first WWE event in Hildalgo, Texas last week but is expected to be back for his match teaming with Sami Zayn against WWE champion AJ Styles this Sunday at the Royal Rumble.
WWE Raw Tag Team champion Jason Jordan has also been held out of action due an ongoing injury, the nature of which PWInsider.com has not been able to confirm. For the second week, he did not work live events but is in New York City for tonight's Raw.
