Kevin Owens Discusses The Recent Success Of Sami Zayn
Upon joining the main roster in 2015, It looked like WWE had big plans for the Canadian professional wrestler. But somehow he was struck somewhere in the mid card division of WWE. He continued his feud with Kevin Owens in the main roster but it did not help him much in his career further.
But Sami had always been a serious contender for the WWE Intercontinental championship. He has won the prestigious IC title of WWE for a total of three times. When everybody was giving up hope on him, he became a member of the Bloodline which is the most dominant stable of WWE right now.
After joining the Bloodline, Sami went on to become the most famous star of WWE. There is no doubt in the mind that he is one of the most famous stars of WWE right now. After his amazing work as a member of the Bloodline, we can definitely expect a good future for the 38 year old.
Kevin Owens who is also a former three times WWE United States champion recently spoke to The New York Post’s Ryan Glasspiegel where he talked about his best friend Sami Zayn and discussed his recent success. He also talked about their history together. He said;
“He’s been an incredible performer for the 22 years I’ve known him and it’s great to see people finally taking notice of that and getting to appreciate that as much as they should. He’s getting the credit he’s deserved for a long time.
“Our careers at this point, there’s no denying they’ll forever be linked and attached to one another. We’ll always come back to each other one way or the other, whether it’s fighting or teaming. It’s been a real thrill to see things develop for him.”
“She’s an incredible fan, and she knows all of our careers,” Owens said. “She’s gone back and watched every single match that involves both of us that she could find from our independent career through WWE, and she writes these essays on her Substack about our careers that I couldn’t recommend more. I kind of call her a Sami and Kevin historian.”
“I guarantee it’s not even close. It’s so much more. We’ve had so many shows in the backwoods of Quebec, or all over the world, that no website would have ever heard of,” Owens said. “If I were to guess, I don’t think it would be exaggerating to say it’s definitely close to a thousand. We’ve been doing this for 20 years. It’s great.”
