According to Cory Hays of BodySlam, Sami Zayn will be kicking off tonight’s episode of SmackDown. Zayn has never won a major title in the promotion and has made it known that he wants the World Heavyweight Championship.

Drew McIntyre defeated Cody Rhodes in a Three Stages of Hell match earlier this month to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion.

WWE interviewer reveals how Sami Zayn almost ruined a segment

Backstage interviewer Jackie Redmond detailed a time when Sami Zayn almost ruined their segment.

Speaking with Chris Van Vliet on the INSIGHT podcast, Redmond recalled when Zayn arrived late to their interview segment, which caused her to panic. However, she revealed that Zayn was excellent in the interview and everything worked out.

“We’re like 20 seconds away. Don’t even have eyes on him. Don’t know where he is. I haven’t seen him. We chatted earlier in the day, like, yeah, we have backstage, and that will be great, whatever. But we’re getting close.” She continued, “And so I’m starting to panic a little bit. And literally, like, we’re in the 10 count. And finally, Sami Zayn shows up, and we’re ready to go. And I was like, ‘Oh my God, Sami! I’m so nervous!’ I was like, where is this man? But he was fine, and he nailed it, and we were great. And it was a wonderful segment,” she said.

It will be interesting to see what Zayn has to say tonight on WWE SmackDown ahead of the Fatal 4-Way match at Saturday Night’s Main Event.
