Sami Zayn has stated that his WrestleMania 38 match against Johnny Knoxville is “as good as it can get” and is one of his “all-time top picks.”
Zayn shared his thoughts on the Knoxville match Thursday via Twitter.
My Wrestlemania match against Johnny Knoxville is one of my all-time favorites. Definitely one of the matches I’m most proud of. I’ve had a lot of great matches in my career, I’d put this up with any of them. Anyone who saw this match will remember it. That’s as good as it gets.
Knoxville was defeated by Zayn in the Anything Goes Match with cameos from Party Boy and Wee Man as well as the Jackass co-stars. Knoxville was able to pin Zayn following being trapped by The Great Liberator in a huge mousetrap.
Sami Zayn and Johnny Knoxville’s rivalry began in the build-up toward 2022’s Royal Rumble. Knoxville was able to compete in this 30-man match by shooting Zayn on top of the rope during SmackDown. Zayn later removed Knoxville in their Rumble match. After that, Knoxville cost Zayn the Intercontinental Championship against Ricochet, which resulted in the WrestleMania match. Zayn’s blog post is below.
