Sami Zayn: It Remains To Be Seen If We’re Main Eventing WrestleMania 39

Sami Zayn is set to team with Kevin Owens to challenge The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles at night one of WrestleMania 39. 

Though ESPN announced that John Cena vs. Austin Theory would be “headlining” night one, it was later clarified that the bout would still open the show, as previously announced. 

It is unknown which match will main event night one. 

Running into Ariel Helwani of BT Sport in a hotel lobby, Sami Zayn was asked if he was headlining night one. 

“That remains to be seen. I should (know), that’s for sure, but I don’t…..we’ll see,” he said.

When it was noted that Sami & Kevin vs. The Usos would be the first tag team match to headline WrestleMania since WrestleMania 1 when Hulk Hogan teamed with Mr. T to face Roddy Piper & Paul Orndorff, Sami said, “It is insane. If we do go on last, which remains to be seen. It would be the first time since WrestleMania 1 and it would be the first tag team title match of all time (to headline). That’s something.”

WWE has not officially announced the main event for night one of WrestleMania 39.
