The Undertaker speaks highly of Sami Zayn and his work with The Bloodline.
In recent months, Zayn has been aligned with Roman Reigns, The Usos, and Paul Heyman. He was initially a stooge, as he did the faction’s dirty work and often took beatings from other WWE stars in their place. Eventually, Zayn proved his loyalty, and Reigns acknowledged him as “The Honorary Uce”. This shift caused tension with Jey Uso, who questioned whether they could trust Zayn. The drama reached a new height at WWE Survivor Series, where Zayn helped The Bloodliine beat Drew McIntyre, kevin Owens, Sheamus, Ridge Holland, and Butch in the Men’s WarGames Match.
Speaking with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, The Undertaker praised Zayn and his role in The Bloodline. He stated that Zayn gives the group more layers, and the tension between the members works well.
“Sami’s character is so intriguing in that whole mix. It is very clear who The Bloodline is and what they stand for, and they go out and do their deal. But adding Sami, that gives so many more layers. Plus, you have that tension between Sami, The Usos and Roman. It works so well,” The Undertaker said.
The WWE Hall of Famer went on to emphasize that Zayn has never been a bigger star, and his place in the group gives it a fresh dynamic. The legend also stated that, as a whole, it’s great storytelling, and he wondered how anyone could not enjoy it.
“Sami is a vital part of the whole thing, and he’s never been a bigger star. But this is also important for The Bloodline. It gives them something new. Roman has been champion for over two years. That means he has to go out and beat everyone he faces, right? That’s tough. But it’s a new dynamic with Sami in there. How can you not enjoy this? It’s great storytelling,” The Undertaker said.
