5 Crazy footages of encounters between WWE Superstars and fans

#1 Sami Zayn gets into an altercation with a fan at a WWE live event

Back in late 2019, WWE Superstar Sami Zayn got into a heated altercation with a fan. Unlike the other incidents mentioned in the list, this one happened at a WWE live event. The show was held at Daytona, Florida, and featured a match between Shinsuke Nakamura and The Fiend. Zayn accompanied Nakamura to the ring for his match, and was at ringside during the bout.

A fan, who was at ringside, allegedly made a homophobic comment while confronting Zayn, and the SmackDown Superstar didn't take kindly to it. He lashed out at the fan immediately. The fan was then ejected out of the building by security personnel.

Sami Zayn certainly put the WWE fan in his place that night

Zayn is one of the most outspoken WWE Superstars from the current crop of wrestlers, and he wasn't in the mood to let the fan get away with the slur. Here's hoping that WWE took strict action against the fan and banned him from all of its future events.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
