In a surprising turn of events, Johnny Knoxville, the man who clashed with Sami Zayn in an unforgettable “Anything Goes” match at WrestleMania 38, couldn’t resist taking a few jabs at the WWE Superstar on social media. Knoxville responded to a backstage photo posted by Zayn, featuring him and Becky Lynch, with a series of humorous comments that left fans in stitches.
The photo, which surfaced from this week’s RAW, showed Zayn and Lynch, who are known to be close friends in real life, posing together behind the scenes. Knoxville, seemingly inspired by the playful atmosphere of the snap, took to the comments section to roast Zayn with a string of witty remarks.
While the exact content of Knoxville’s comments remains unknown, the tone is said to be light-hearted and playful, with no signs of malice or bad blood between the two. This comes as no surprise, given the positive reception their match received at WrestleMania 38, with both competitors receiving widespread praise for their performances.
The dynamic between Zayn, Lynch, and Knoxville is a fascinating one, with the trio possessing a clear camaraderie that transcends the world of professional wrestling. Last year, Zayn and his partner Kevin Owens made headlines by defeating The Usos to become the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions, earning a thunderous ovation from the crowd in attendance. Becky Lynch, who has a close friendship with Zayn, was visibly emotional in her reaction to their victory, penning a heartfelt message that showcased the strong bond between the two WWE Superstars.
In more recent news, Zayn successfully captured the Intercontinental Title from Gunther at WrestleMania XL, ending The Ring General’s near two-year reign as champion. He is set to defend his title against Bronson Reed and Chad Gable in a Triple-Threat match at King and Queen of the Ring on May 25.
With Knoxville’s recent comments adding a touch of humor to the mix, fans can’t help but wonder if a rematch between Zayn and Knoxville is on the horizon. Given their explosive encounter at WrestleMania 38, a second encounter would undoubtedly be met with widespread excitement and anticipation. Only time will tell if these two giants of the wrestling world will face off once again.
