With WrestleMania right around the corner, there has been ongoing speculation in the WWE Universe about who is going to face whom and in what match. WWE fans have their eyes set on the wrestlers teasing each other ahead of the biggest show of wrestling.

Recently, Jackass star Johnny Knoxville took a sarcastic dig at his last WrestleMania rival Sami Zayn. Zayn and Knoxville had a heated feud at the SmackDown episode of February 25, 2022, and it resulted in Zayn duping Knoxville with a brutal Helluva kick. The duo appeared on SmackDown several times until Knoxville took revenge on Zayn with a win at WrestleMania 38.

Looking forward to the WrestleMania scene, Sami Zayn crossed paths with Jey Uso on the Road to WrestleMania last week on RAW. Jey Uso betrayed the onetime Honorary Uce during the March 6th Raw episode in Boston, in an unexpected turn of events. Later, he came out with a justification for prioritizing his own brother and family over anything.

Zayn, who moved out of The Bloodline during the Royal Rumble 2023, is now a man standing alone with no one on his side. But fans are hopeful that he can tear down The Bloodline along with his lifelong friend Kevin Owens. It will surely be one of the hottest moments of the entire WrestleMania when Zayn and Owens collide against The Usos . However, we will have to wait for nearly 4 weeks to let that happen.
