That’s a different gimmick. There are all kinds of ways for a wrestler to get noticed, but most of the time they have their own unique way of doing things in the ring that will get them noticed. At the same time, there are occasions where a wrestler might try to do something that another star is already doing, often in some kind of tribute. That happened again this weekend, in a big way.
WWE ran a live event in Glasgow, Scotland over the weekend, featuring a six man tag between New Day and Braun Strowman against the Usos and Sami Zayn. During the match, Zayn used Roman Reigns’ Superman Punch on Strowman and managed to knock him down. Zayn also tried the spear but missed, allowing Strowman to come back for the win. Using Reigns’ offense is something Zayn has done at live events but not on television as of yet.
This was pretty good. Check out what Zayn managed to do to Strowman:
Opinion: I love seeing things like this as you get to see a fun idea that doesn’t hurt anyone because so few fans are getting to see it. Zayn continues to be one of the most entertaining people in wrestling today and it is great to have him putting on this kind of a run so late in his career. I’m curious to see where it goes and that is a sign that they are doing things right.
What do you see Zayn doing with the Bloodline? Should he use Reigns’ moves on TV? Let us know in the comments below.
