Report: Sami Zayn Dealing With Legitimate Injury, Could Miss ‘A Few Weeks’

Sami Zayn could miss a few weeks of ring time.

Sami Zayn appeared on the July 15 episode of SmackDown sporting a sling on his left arm, and it turns out the injury is legitimate. According to F4WOnline.com’s Dave Meltzer (via the Wrestling Observer Newsletter), Sami Zayn is currently dealing with an undisclosed injury. It is believed that the issue is a minor one, and WWE hopes Zayn will be able to return to the ring in a few weeks.

Sami Zayn last competed in the Men’s Money In The Bank ladder match on July 2. While his in-ring return is in question, Zayn does have a big appearance lined up as he is the latest guest on the Broken Skull Sessions with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. The new episode with Zayn is now streaming on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.

Sami Zayn recently signed a new contract with WWE. During an appearance on Out Of Character, Zayn told Ryan Satin what made him stick around and sign another contract with the company.

“Having even a little bit of creative input, I think that’s what’s really taken my appreciation and my enjoyment of being here in WWE to another level. I’ll say ‘hey, I really wish we can kind of do this’ and then some version of it will happen and I’m thrilled, I’m over the moon, what more could you ask for? That’s it. Yeah, just to feel like you have a voice and feel like you’re being heard and then when you actually go out there and do it, you feel respected and valued,” Zayn noted, “that’s really what kept me here. There are other factors for sure but that was really it. It wasn’t, ‘oh all of a sudden my contract is coming up and it’s time for a negotiation’ and hey, hey we really like ya, well where have you been the last two years? No, no, the last two years they’ve shown they value me, so when they told me that they wanted me to stay, I believed them. So I stayed.”
