Sami Zayn's return to WWE action was brief, as the beloved superstar is back on the sidelines. Last week he wrestled on the WWE Holiday Tour, reuniting with Jey Uso at Madison Square Garden and then in Boston, and later he competed in his homecoming in Laval, Quebec.
On December 28th, the former Intercontinental Champion faced Finn Balor in a match that ended in disqualification before being turned into a tag team match. His next bout against Finn Balor was a Last Man Standing Match in Toronto, where he emerged victorious - but at a cost.
During the match, Sami put his opponent through a table which resulted in a cut to his head, requiring 15 staples. This setback was enough for WWE to pull him from their event in Los Angeles and announce his injury on Monday Night Raw.
Sami had previously been written off TV by Drew McIntyre on December 4th. In the weeks before his return, he posted on social media about how his life had been "crazy and in some ways difficult" in 2020, expressing gratitude for being in great cities with great fans.
It's unclear how this injury will affect his return to Raw. We hope Sami Zayn makes a speedy recovery and is back in action soon.
