Why noble causes have to suffer all the time? Recently, Sami Zayn and pro-wrestling tees partnered to announce a massive raffling programme. Sami’s exclusive merch from his Bloodline days which had “My Dawg” inscribed over it was put on with a price tag. Notably, the raised funds were supposed to be credited in ‘Sami for Syria’ charitable trust.

However, before they could even get going, a catastrophe hit them. A reddit user, who purchased the raffle tickets, revealed that they’re no more valid. That guy was sent an e-mail from PW Tees stating that the raffling was scrapped after a Cease & Desist claim was made against them. The organization also apologized for the inconvenience caused.

At this point, there’s no word on why such a legal claim was made. Since 2017, Sami Zayn has been involved in various causes to raise funds for affected and homeless Syrians. The aforementioned raffling act was also acknowledged by current AEW Superstar Kenny Omega.

The Bloodline t-shirt supposed to be rolled out had signatures of various WWE Superstars on it. Given that the cause is dropped for now, they’re of no use anymore. However, it doesn’t mean that this was the last shot for Sami Zayn to collect money for the indigent. He has often donated his massive WWE paychecks to serve his people over the years. He’ll eventually figure out a way to replicate it this time too.

Being hailed as WWE’s best storyline in decades, The Bloodline’s saga continues to make fans agog. At present, the stable has been dissected with The Usos parting ways from Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa. They’re set to battle in a Bloodline Civil War at Money in the Bank this Saturday. However, getting to this point wasn’t an overnight thing.

The Bloodline developed cracks once Sami Zayn’s influence in the group started to affect Roman Reigns. The latter’s narcissistic tactics led to his group’s eventual downfall. Even after getting expelled from their party, Zayn fed The Usos with enough enlightenment to make them choose what’s best for them. At the end, Jimmy & Jey finally discovered Reigns’ manipulative ideologies.

Without a doubt, Sami Zayn’s involvement with The Bloodline helped them grow through leaps and bounds. Also, it did a lot for Zayn himself. He emerged out as a red-hot babyface from the storyline. He’s at the apex of his WWE career right now as one-half of Undisputed Tag-Team Champions with Kevin Owens.
