Sami Zayn Crashes Jackass Forever Premiere, Thrown Out After Altercation With Johnny Knoxville
Sami Zayn made his presence felt at the Jackass Forever premiere.
It was exactly one month ago that Johnny Knoxville announced that he’d be taking part in the 2022 Royal Rumble. In the weeks leading up to the event, he entered into a feud with Sami Zayn, who took umbrage with the fact that Knoxville was granted a spot in the match despite him not being a wrestler. As a result, Sami attempted to start his own stunt show, In-Zayn, in which he attempted to do ‘Jackass’ stunt better than the original cast. Naturally, this failed and usually ended up with Sami knocked near-unconscious and thrown over the top rope.
At the Royal Rumble, it was Zayn who eliminated Knoxville with a Helluva Kick, but the Master Strategist took too long celebrating and, much to his chagrin, was dumped over the top rope moments later.
With Jackass Forever set to be released on February 3, the red carpet premiere was held this evening and Zayn was there to cause a scene. While speaking with Entertainment Tonight, Zayn questioned why the outlet wasn’t also at WWE television tapings. Knoxville and his friends then came over and had Zayn tossed out, shocking him with a cattle prod for added insult.
It’s go time!!!
Headed to the #jackassforever world premiere!

WWE’s presence at the premiere extends beyond Zayn, though, and everyone else seems to be having a wonderful time.
