5 things WWE SmackDown got right this week: Ronda Rousey saves former champion; Roman Reigns makes bold statement

#2. Sami Zayn continued his In-Zayn antics on WWE SmackDown

Sami Zayn introduced another edition of his In-Zayn podcast on WWE SmackDown this week. A video of Johnny Knoxville visiting the WWE pop-up shop in Los Angeles and defaming Zayn merchandise was shown before his guests came out.

Zayn’s guests for the show were Rick Boogs and Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura. The Conspiracy Theorist shot some words at the Intercontinental Champion before their title match next week.

Boogs looked to join in, but the microphone sent an electric shock up his arm, distracting Nakamura in the process. With Nakamura checking on his friend, Zayn rocked him with a Helluva Kick and left his foe lying.

The segment did not do too much for the Intercontinental Championship scene on Friday night. However, it looks like WWE is building towards a match between Zayn and Knoxville for WrestleMania.

Knoxville took a few bumps at Royal Rumble, and he may be ready for a singles match in the company. Zayn’s antics could lead to an Intercontinental Championship match between the two men at The Show of Shows. That will certainly help bolster The Conspiracy Theorist’s ratings on the show.
