While many fans will be rooting for ‘The Underdog from the Underground’ it is hard to look past Roman Reigns with him, being almost guaranteed to headline WrestleMania. But as we know in WWE, stranger things have happened. Zayn and his fans will certainly be hoping for the same when he steps up to challenge ‘The Tribal Chief’ for the titles.
Speaking with Main Event Radio ahead of possibly the biggest night of his WWE career, the former Intercontinental Champion shared his feelings about the match and why it is a great feeling for him. Zayn said, “It’s hard not to feel great. This easily could have been the Wrestlemania match, in my opinion. The fact that this is happening in Montreal is almost more special. This is my Wrestlemania for sure. And then there is Wrestlemania for real right after that. It’s been a great time for me.”
Zayn’s words about this being his WrestleMania certainly caught the attention of fans who gave their thoughts on Twitter on the big match and his chances.

The way they're building it up is really good. People were complaining that he should be the one main eventing Wrestlemania. To me, that doesn't make sense.
I know wrestling is all about stories, but it's hard to buy the fact that the guy who lost to Jackass last year is winning https://t.co/wzYWrkpiLd

I’ll just say this, if Cody wasn’t healed in time and could not have been back until AFTER the Rumble…I’d have argued Sami should’ve been the guy. Which is amusing, considering I’m a Cody ride-or-die. https://t.co/egJY3x7ma0
