Sami Zayn Gives Update, Layla Reacts To Michelle McCool/WWE HOF, Vic Joseph Fills In For Joe Tessitore
– Sami Zayn addressed his status in a new video shared via his X account on Friday evening. The WWE Superstar noted that it’s a running joke at this point how often Kevin Owens has gone from being his best friend to his biggest enemy who attacks him out of nowhere. He says this time it was different, and they both know that. He says Owens legitimately tried to end his career with the package piledriver. He says he checked on Owens at Royal Rumble, but that wasn’t the help Kevin wanted. He says he doesn’t know when he’ll be cleared, but when he is, he and Kevin will meet again — and this time it won’t be fun.
