La WWE présente Elimination Chamber , samedi, au Centre Bell, le dernier rendez-vous avant la grand-messe qu'est WrestleMania. Le Montréalais Sami Zayn fera ...

[…] Tout le monde a été bon, mais Sami était le gars qui ne cadrait pas dans l’histoire, et il a réussi à faire de quelque chose de temporaire une histoire longue, au point de faire la finale d’un gros événement. Il y a des gens qui veulent juste regarder une émission de télé et se laisser divertir par les histoires, et c’est tout. Trois membres du conseil ont été expulsés dans la foulée, et deux ont choisi de démissionner. Et on fait confiance à un Québécois pour le combat principal de la soirée. Mais cette semaine, c’est celle de Sami Zayn, entre l’invitation au match du Canadien et la finale d’Elimination Chamber. C’est vraiment la consécration pour Sami Zayn, soutient l’auteur et historien de la lutte québécoise Patric Laprade.

Le week-end de Sami Zayn - TVA Sports (TVA Sports)

De Stevie McFly à El Generico, il s'en est passé des choses pour que Rami Sebei devienne le lutteur Sami Zayn.

«C’est un mélange d’athlétisme et de jeu c’est pourquoi très peu de gens dans le monde peuvent faire ce que nous faisons. C’est quelque chose que j’adore faire et je suis passionnée de la lutte, surtout féminine.» Le Canada est très significatif pour la famille Hart alors c’est comme revenir à la maison que je peux lutter ici. Elles vont à la rencontre des gens qui n’ont pas de voiture ou qui vivent dans des camps de réfugiés. Je suis une Hart», assure la femme de 40 ans. De son vrai nom, Nathalie Katherine Neidhart, elle est la fille de l’ancien lutteur Jim Neidhart et la nièce d’Owen et Bret Hart, les frères de sa mère. Il y a la dimension athlétique et technique, mais il y a aussi le drame, la comédie et le jeu. Natalya vit à Tampa Bay pour le travail, mais c’est au Canada que commence son histoire. Évidemment, le tremblement de terre qui a secoué le pays l’interpelle, d’autant plus qu’il est personnellement impliqué dans l’aide humanitaire. Le fait que ce combat-là soit présenté à Montréal, c’est une belle note dans l’histoire. Il est bien sûr revenu lutter à la maison, et c’était avec son grand ami Kevin Owens qui occupe souvent plus d’espace dans les médias. Il portait d’ailleurs un t-shirt orné du logo de la ville lors d’une rencontre de presse vendredi matin.

Sami Zayn will be front-and-centre in the main event of WWE's Elimination Chamber against Roman Reigns before a sold-out crowd at Montreal's Bell Centre on ...

It’s sports, it’s entertainment, it’s a hybrid of the two,” Zayn said. “I think we produce some of the all-time best. “And it just so happened to be, this fight, that people are really anticipating, everywhere in the world …. “For a lot of people, it’s the ultimate moment, to reach that championship. It’s also put a rocket on Zayn’s stardom that hits its highest point Saturday night at the premium event known as Elimination Chamber, in front of his home fans and a sold-out Bell Centre. There is just something about Montreal, the way they treat one of their own, it’s second to none.

En toute fin d’entrevue, Zayn a tenté de calmer le jeu quant à savoir si une telle transaction, si elle se confirme, signifierait son départ de la WWE. C’est que Zayn est d’origine syrienne et il n’a pas participé aux évènements que la WWE a tenus en Arabie saoudite ces dernières années, ce que plusieurs perçoivent comme un boycottage de sa part. Le fait que j’aie un combat de championnat au Centre Bell, c’est spécial. Le premier évènement de la WWE que j’ai vu, c’était au Centre Bell, c’était Bret Hart contre Shawn Michaels. Le mois dernier, le bruit s’est mis à courir que la WWE était vendue à des intérêts de l’Arabie saoudite. Il a démontré qu’il est capable de lutter, de jouer la comédie, de mener une histoire du point A au point B juste avec un micro. Le premier de ces évènements avait été le Survivor Series de 1997, qui a marqué les esprits. Il s’agira seulement du quatrième de l’histoire de la WWE. C’est un Québécois qui est l’athlète de l’heure dans l’univers disjoncté de la lutte professionnelle. Cette histoire s’est terminée par un coup de chaise dans le dos, cause numéro 1 des conflits à la lutte. Aux yeux du grand public québécois, Kevin Owens demeure le visage de la lutte de la génération actuelle. Si vous avez regardé le match du Canadien sur les ondes de RDS mardi dernier, vous l’avez entendu au côté de Pierre Houde.

SMACKDOWN: Sami Zayn whips Montreal crowd into a frenzy as he ... (Toronto Sun)

MONTREAL – Sami Zayn nearly blew the roof off the Bell Centre in Montreal on Friday night as he returned home on WWE.

The crowd roared with adoration as the video promoted Zayn’s match on Saturday with Reigns. Asuka scored the submission victory before all of the Chamber participants entered the ring and a melee ensued. While the action in the ring was a precursor to Saturday’s women’s Elimination Chamber match, much of The main event on the night featured the wildly popular Gunther, fresh off a record-setting Royal Rumble, defending his Intercontinental championship against Madcap Moss. When he spoke, it was first in French, thanking his hometown. Article content

Sami Zayn Got An All-Time Crowd Reaction, And Now Fans Are ... (Cinema Blend)

Or it can have Roman Reigns ruin the hopes of Zayn and everyone in his hometown by beating him and generating nuclear heat from the angry fans. [are in place for it to get even better](https://www.cinemablend.com/wrestling/different-directions-the-bloodline-angle-could-take-on-the-road-to-wrestlemania). Then I'd have Roman and Solo fight The Usos as the main event of night one of WrestleMania. Then I'd have Roman vs Sami Zayn vs Cody close the show on night two. WWE can put the belt on Sami Zayn and reward one of the most astounding mid-card to main event runs in wrestling history. Call the audible. Why would you burn one of the most popular characters in almost a decade six weeks before WrestleMania? It turns out I'm not the only one having these thoughts. Roman Reigns has been holding the belts for more than two years. I have no idea what the original plan was for when Sami went out there. Now, full disclosure, as much as I love Sami Zayn, I've never, even for a second, thought he could beat Roman Reigns, especially not ahead of WrestleMania. Fans have long been excited for the match, as it's a major next step for the Bloodline story arc, but for an overwhelming majority, there was never any real expectation the underdog would win.

On one hand, it was probably the right call to give Zayn his solo moment in front of a rabid hometown crowd. Reigns was warned that he fights not only Zayn on Saturday night, but the entire city of Montreal as well. A fired-up Zayn couldn't get a word out as the crowd chanted. Zayn made a triumphant homecoming to the Bell Centre in Friday's closing segment. [#SmackDown] [pic.twitter.com/tE820d9Ako] [February 18, 2023]

Cody Rhodes, Sami Zayn Proving WWE Can Still Create Major Stars (Forbes)

WWE is hitting it big with Sami Zayn and Cody Rhodes, but they aren't the only fan favorites who are super over.

The tag team division, of course, still has its ups-and-downs outside of the Usos. There’s still a lot of work to be done, particularly in the women’s division, which has been largely neglected outside of a few select names despite being deeper than it’s ever been. [Bleacher Report](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10065557-where-does-roman-reigns-bloodline-storyline-rank-among-all-time-great-wwe-angles) just ranked Zayn’s storyline with The Bloodline, which was originally meant to be a short-term thing, as the greatest storyline in WWE history. For the most part, that has been true, but Triple H’s laser focus on long-term storytelling is ensuring that this is no longer the case. There is something to be said, however, about the tremendous job WWE—under the guidance of Triple H—has done with its protagonists. 1 pro wrestling company in the world has mutliple red hot fan favorites who are changing the game.
