Sami Zayn Officially Part Of WWE SmackDown Roster
Sami Zayn has been transferred to WWE SmackDown.
Zayn made another surprise appearance on WWE SmackDown, confronting Solo Sikoa and MFTs Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga, and JC Matteo.
Zayn turned his focus to the WWE United States Championship, saying he’s never won the title and noting that he pinned Sikoa last Friday on SmackDown. Sikoa told him to go away as he wasn’t part of the SmackDown roster.
Zayn informed Sikoa that he is officially part of the SmackDown roster.
Sikoa and the MFTs went after Zayn, who was saved by Jimmy Uso and Jacob Fatu, setting up a six-man tag in the main event.
"I never want to see you again. EVER!"
