As the WWE universe gears up for the highly-anticipated King and Queen of the Ring premium live event this Saturday, current Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn has taken to social media to share a lighthearted message that has left fans in stitches. Meanwhile, speculation is building around Bronson Reed’s potential to become a major heel challenger if he emerges victorious in their championship match.
Zayn, who is set to defend his title against Reed and Chad Gable at the event, posted a graphic on his X account featuring himself celebrating with his wife, accompanied by the humorous caption “Arab af.” The lighthearted post has garnered significant attention, with fans praising the champion’s ability to poke fun at himself ahead of the high-stakes match.
However, not everyone is taking the upcoming match lightly. Legendary wrestling journalist Bill Apter has weighed in on the potential implications of Reed capturing the Intercontinental Championship, stating that the Australian wrestler has the potential to become a major heel for the company. Apter drew comparisons between Reed and wrestling legend Crusher Blackwell, citing Reed’s athleticism and size as key factors in his potential to make a significant impact.
Reed, a former North American Champion in NXT, has yet to hold a title on the main roster and has been conspicuously absent from the past two WWE WrestleMania events. A win at King and Queen of the Ring could be the catalyst for a significant push, and Apter’s endorsement has sparked excitement among fans.
As the stage is set for this Saturday’s event, all eyes will be on Zayn, Reed, and Gable as they clash in a highly-anticipated triple threat match. Will Zayn’s humorous antics translate to success in the ring, or will Reed’s potential as a heel challenger come to fruition? One thing is certain – the WWE universe is in for an unforgettable ride at King and Queen of the Ring.
