Sami Zayn referred to All Elite Wrestling by name on the latest edition of RAW.

The most recent reference to take place on WWE TV, this huge name-drop took place this week on Monday Night RAW.

In the very first edition of The Electric Chair, Sami Zayn was given questions by the WWE Universe, and at one point, even referred to All Elite Wrestling, the new promotion formed by former WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes, and the Young Bucks.

AEW recently hosted their Double or Nothing event, which has been widely praised by fans, with many considering the new company as legitimate competition to McMahon.

It's currently unclear whether Zayn's comments were approved ahead of time or whether it was improvised by the former NXT Champion.

Whatever the truth may be, Sami certainly made a name for himself on RAW, by referring to the newest hot thing in town.
