#2 Corey said "Super Saiyan"

Corey Graves made a Dragon Ball Z reference on Raw and this author's gut reaction was to label it as a botch. He said the phrase "Super Saiyan", but instead of making the first syllable of the second word sounding like 'say,' he pronounced it like 'sigh.' Clearly, Graves doesn't know his stuff and there were plenty of people on social media to back up this claim.

Or maybe, Corey was right.

Despite a horde of people (including me) more than willing to call Corey Graves out for his improper anime pronunciation, he may be in the right after all. A vocal section of social media came to the Raw announcer's defence, proclaiming his version of Saiyan to be correct.

If you're a WWE fan and someone who's into Dragon Ball, what's the correct answer here? Either Corey botched or he sparked an outrageously geeky debate.
