Sami Zayn Weighs In On WWE Fans Preferring SMACKDOWN LIVE To RAW
It's unclear what direction Sami Zayn is heading in for WrestleMania this year but in a new interview the Underdog from the Underground shares his thoughts on SmackDown Live outshining RAW.
Most wrestling fans seem to agree that SmackDown Live is better than RAW, and quite a few WWE Superstars who perform on Monday nights have made it clear they would like to make the leap to the former. You'd think Sami Zayn would be among them, but in a new interview, he revealed that he only thinks about the show he's on and nothing else.
In fact, Zayn isn't letting the praise for SmackDown Live get to him as he's just happy to see fans enjoying the product and that he doesn't even tune into the "competition."
"That's fine. As long as they're watching and enjoying the show, good for them. I just appreciate you guys supporting WWE, I really do. I just feel like any show I'm on is better because I'm on it. Naturally I've felt like that my whole career. Even when I was wrestling on little shows in front of 100 people I just thought 'This is the place to be because I'm here.' So I feel like RAW is the show, like THE show. I don't really watch SmackDown. If I was on SmackDown then SmackDown would be the show. That's just the way my brain has always kind of worked. But if you prefer SmackDown that's fine, just thank you for the support either way."
It's easy enough to appreciate where Zayn is coming from here, though an argument could definitely be made that he would fit in a lot better on SmackDown Live. That's not to say the Underdog from the Underground hasn't done well on RAW after feuding with the likes of Braun Strowman and Samoa Joe, but he hasn't been given the chance to really shine.
That's evident from him not currently having a match at WrestleMania, but here's hoping he winds up with more to do than just a place in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal...
