“I Was Entertained by Him’: Despite Getting Betrayed, Roman Reigns Breaks Character to Give Sami Zayn His Dues Before His Match Against The Usos

From being the underdog in WWE to becoming one of the hot favorites in the company, Sami Zayn has come a long way from where he started. Years and years of hard work and sheer determination finally paved his way to the top last year. And it happened when he joined one of the hottest stables in WWE currently.

Zayn, who struggled to find his spotlight, rose to great heights when he got involved in The Bloodline story to showcase his talent. Plus, he also helped the storyline to flourish and keep the audience hooked on the story with his on-screen skills. And now even Roman Reigns acknowledged and praised him for that.

Roman Reigns speaks highly of Sami Zayn

The ‘Underdog from the Underground’ became Reigns’ nemesis earlier this year after the former betrayed the latter for Kevin Owens. The Tribal Chief’s on-screen character dislikes the red-headed superstar. But recently he came out of his character to praise Zayn’s work in The Bloodline story.

Speaking with ESPN, The Big Dog stated he enjoyed having the Canadian wrestler as the ‘Honorary Uce’. Plus, he also acknowledged Zayn’s creativity. He said, “I was entertained by him when he did the Jackass stuff and really respected the way he navigated that creative [process].”

Also, The Head of the Table admitted Zayn was the perfect fit to play the role of Honorary Uce in The Bloodline.

The 38-year-old star started as the Honorary Uce in The Bloodline. Nine months later, he was met with a critical decision on whether to put an end to his longtime friendship or fail his ultimate test. The main event of Royal Rumble saw Zayn driving a steel chair to Reigns’ back instead of hitting KO.
