Zayn reflects on past Mania moments as Owens’ injury opens possible opportunity


Summary
– Sami Zayn posted a throwback reflecting on past WrestleMania matches

– He was not booked for WrestleMania 41 but was seen in the talent section

– Randy Orton’s open challenge may still bring Zayn into the spotlight

Sami Zayn, a consistent WrestleMania presence in recent years, found himself without a match at WrestleMania 41—but he still made headlines with a reflective post.

Zayn shared photos on social media recounting his unique journey: his comedic match with Johnny Knoxville at WrestleMania 38, capturing the tag titles with Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 39 and ending Gunther’s Intercontinental Title reign last year. The final image showed him watching this year’s event from the talent area, accompanied by the caption, “The way she goes.”

Originally rumored to be part of this year’s card, Zayn’s path may have changed due to Kevin Owens undergoing neck surgery. Owens was pulled from his scheduled match with Randy Orton, and Zayn’s ongoing ties to Owens made him a likely candidate to be involved.

With Orton issuing an open challenge, many now wonder if Zayn will answer the call before the weekend ends.
