WWE superstar Sami Zayn reacted to the 2022 Oscars controversy featuring Will Smith and Chris Rock.
Popular comedian Rock - the host of the 94th Academy Awards - cracked a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith. The G.I. Jane joke referred to her appearance, and the actress has publicly stated that she struggles with her hair loss due to alopecia.
Chris Rock's comments didn't sit well with Will Smith, who walked on stage and punched the host. Smith then went back to his seat and yelled:
"Keep my wife's name out of your f***ing mouth."

Since Knoxville publicly revealed Sami Zayn's phone number, the WWE Superstar has struggled with strangers spamming his phone. However, he is apparently open to a conversation with Chris Rock after the Oscars incident.
