“It must be tough for him” – WWE Universe believes Syrian descent Sami Zayn’s passionate promo on Raw was indirect reference to the situation in Gaza

WWE superstar Sami Zayn is one of the only few Syrian-descent superstars to make a name for himself in the WWE. Recently, he was in a segment with The Judgment Day’s Rhea Ripley. The WWE Universe was so shocked to see an emotional and passionate speech from Zayn. The promo was seemingly a reference to the ongoing situation in Gaza.

This week on Monday Night Raw, Sami Zayn had an incredible segment with The Judgment Day. He has been in a rivalry with the stable for quite some time now. The promo soon turned hard-hitting and personal when the 39-year-old went out of control and talked about how he has been facing people like The Judgment Day all his life.

The former Undisputed Tag Team Champion gave a befitting reply to The Judgment Day, saying people like them only like power, and they are ruthless when they are hungry for power. He further added that they can oppress whoever and whenever they want in the name of power. This was supposedly a reference to the ongoing war between Israel and Palestine.

My entire life I have fought people like the Judgment Day. people who think that all that matters is power and as long as you are chasing power you can do whatever you want. You can be as ruthless as you want. You can oppress whoever, whenever as long as it's in the name of power. If that's your game, fine. If that's your game, I am not Sami Zayn, I am a rebellion.
