"My Wrestlemania match against Johnny Knoxville is one of my all time favorites. Definitely one of the matches I’m most proud of. I’ve had a lot of great matches in my career, I’d put this up with any of them. Anyone who saw this match will remember it. That’s as good as it gets," said Zayn.
Sami Zayn signed a new contract with WWE
The Great Liberator is one of the most talented superstars on the roster. He's good on the mic, in the ring, and he plays his character well.
During a recent interview with Ariel Helwani of BT Sport, Zayn stated that he chose to stay in WWE because he was valued and appreciated.
"There was another place to go. It was the first time where I was thinking, 'What's gonna happen?' Used to always be not even a thought. Just stay. And it was even the first time there was a remote possibility of examining options. But, I've not been shy about this - I've been having a ball here the last couple of years. I feel appreciated, I feel valued and trusted. A lot of the people who ran to the competition at the first chance they got, it's because they didn't get that."
Sami's match against Johnny Knoxville at WrestleMania Sunday garnered both positive and negative reviews from fans and critics. Fans will now tune in to this week's SmackDown to see where Zayn goes from here.
