Up until last night, Zayn has gone by the handle @ILikeSamiZayn. That changed following the ‘Smackdown Live’ pay-per-view where Zayn saved Kevin Owens from being hit by an Elbow Drop by Shane McMahon off the top of the Hell in a Cell structure.
His new handle is @SamiZayn. We’ve heard from many sources, including Dave Meltzer that Zayn is now a heel. That said, we have no confirmation of this. Both Owens and Zayn have had a storied past and with all that has happened between the two of them, it could mean a number of things.
That said, the new handle does seem to suggest he is leaning towards becoming a heel. This should become obvious this week on ‘Smackdown Live’ when Zayn addresses the situation, as Owens himself seemed in shock at what transpired.
If you didn’t get the chance to watch ‘Hell in a Cell’ or want to relive one of the biggest moments, we highly suggest this video where McMahon threw Owens into an announce table from 10 feet in the air.
