CM Punk defeated Cody Rhodes during Night 1 of WrestleMania to retain the title. Randy Orton returned during the match and hit The American Nightmare with an RKO while the referee was taken out. Punk did not see Orton’s attack, but capitalized on it by hitting the GTS on Rhodes for the pinfall victory.

Sami Zayn won the Undisputed WWE Championship last month at Night of Champions 2026. His title reign only lasted nine days before he lost it to CM Punk. Zayn was scheduled to defend the title against Cody Rhodes on RAW last month, but Gunther attacked the former AEW star ahead of the match. Punk returned from his hiatus to replace Rhodes and captured the title. The Second City Saint also called out Oba Femi during the SummerSlam Post-Show last night.

Sami Zayn praises major WWE star

Sami Zayn broke character to praise Finn Balor ahead of WWE SummerSlam.

In an interview with ESPN, The Last Real Good Guy complimented Balor and noted that he could not say enough good things about him as a performer ahead of their match.

“Finn Balor, look, unbelievable, unbelievable. I can’t say enough good things about him as a performer. He has his own journey too. I mean, he won it for a day. It’s not actually terribly dissimilar from me in some ways. He won it, held it for a day because of an injury and that was it, and now he’s been trying to chase that and get back to that for ten years, and it’s similar to me in the sense that it felt like something that was within my grasp ten years ago, and I just have to keep beating my head against the wall to finally get there. So I think we’re in some ways kind of in similar situations. I take nothing away from him,” he said.

It will be interesting to see if Zayn can defeat Balor at SummerSlam to become the number one contender for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
