Sami Zayn thrashed WWE over new advertisement
WWE recently released the Friday Night SmackDown season premier advertisement. Almost every Superstar on the SmackDown roster features in the segment except for Zayn.
Due to this, the Superstar called out WWE. He claimed that making profits and entertaining audience is the company’s secondary goal. The primary goal of the company was to humiliate Zayn at every chance.
People think @WWE is this international media giant whose goal is to not only turn massive profits, but to bring joy to millions of fans worldwide. And while that is all true, it’s actually secondary to it’s main objective, which is to disrespect Sami Zayn every chance they get. https://t.co/ygYflj9LTu
