WWE Raw Summary and Highlights
Sami Zayn
Sami Zayn stepped into the ring as the Charlotte crowd welcomed him back. He picked up the mic and stated that it had been a rough couple of weeks for him. Zayn mentioned that there weren’t really many two stars whose names had been tied together more than his and Kevin Owens.
He said there was no forgiving this time for KO because he had tried to end his career, but KO hadn’t gotten the job done, and he was still standing right there. Zayn revealed that he had enough in the tank for a fight and that he wanted it to take place in Toronto.
General Manager Adam Pearce appeared on stage, trying to convince Zayn not to accept the match in Toronto. He revealed that Zayn had not been medically cleared to compete and, as much as he loved the idea of the match, his answer was ‘no.’ Pearce turned to leave, but the crowd continued to boo.
Zayn picked up the mic and stopped Pearce from leaving. He stated that he wasn’t taking no for an answer and wasn’t going to leave the ring until Pearce gave him the match. Pearce once again repeated that he couldn’t sanction the match, explaining that he couldn’t stop Kevin Owens if he really wanted to hurt Zayn because there were no rules WWE had washed its hands of the situation legally.
He warned that if Zayn won the match, he would still lose in the end. Pearce asked Zayn what he wanted to do, suggesting that this might be Sami’s last match at Elimination Chamber. The crowd filled the arena with chants of “Let them fight!”
