WWE is gearing up for its post-Christmas live event tour, marking the return of the action-packed extravaganza after a brief holiday hiatus. The tour kicks off tonight with shows in Baltimore and New York City, featuring the resumption of WWE’s thrilling performances.
Sami Zayn Unexpected WWE Return
Contrary to earlier assumptions, WWE fans will witness the return of Sami Zayn earlier than anticipated. Initially thought to be on leave for the remainder of December and the start of 2024, plans have taken an unexpected turn.
In a recent episode of Monday Night Raw, a strategic injury spot was incorporated into Sami Zaynmatch with Drew McIntyre. This allowed McIntyre to secure victory, and post-match, he attacked Zayn. Reports suggest that Zayn had requested time off, a request that WWE granted. The company later announced that Zayn was “injured” with a “partially torn meniscus,” refraining from providing a specific timeline for his return.
However, in a surprising twist, Zayn took to Twitter to confirm his participation in WWE’s Holiday Tour, dispelling any notions of an extended absence. The reasons behind Zayn’s initial request for time off and the subsequent change in plans remain unclear.
Sami Zayn expressed on Twitter:
Haven’t been very active on here lately. It’s been a crazy and in some ways difficult time for me, but I’m so grateful to be in such great cities, with such great fans, to end such a remarkable year. This life has been too good to me. Just know I’m very happy to be here with you. https://t.co/jqf8OrXPcz
