– Sami Zayn once again tried to prove that he can do anything Johnny Knoxville can do, only better but got called out by the Jackass star who revealed that Sami was only pretending to use a Cattle Prodder. Knoxville grabbed the device, turned it on, and jabbed Sami in the stomach with it before tossing him over the top rope.
