There are very few Superstars on WWE SmackDown that can steal the show without stepping inside the ring. Sami Zayn is undoubtedly one of them. This week, he appeared as a special guest commentator during the opening match of the show in which Kevin Owens and Big E teamed up to take on Apollo Crews and Commander Azeez.

Throughout the match, Zayn insisted that Owens deserves every bit of punishment for abandoning his friend. He took hilarious digs at everyone except Past McAfee and helped in drawing attention towards each of the five superstars throughout the match. His responses were witty, and he made the entire match more entertaining on WWE SmackDown.

In the end, Zayn distracted Owens, leading to Captain Azeez taking advantage of the situation. He pinned KO for the win while Zayn’s laughter echoed in the ThunderDome. A frustrated Owens then went backstage after his loss and demanded a match against Zayn.

As a result, the two WWE SmackDown superstars are now set to lock horns at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view, and we are looking forward to a memorable match between them.
