Sami Zayn was recently a guest on E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness hosted by Edge & Christian. Sami spoke on a wide variety of topics about his wrestling career. One of the main topics was about Sami’s recent heel turn.
Sami turned heel several weeks ago when he aligned himself with Kevin Owens at Hell in a Cell Pay-Per-View. He has since taken on a new character.
Sami had a pretty interesting analogy to sum up his new character. Here is what he said on the podcast:
“I’ll try to sum [the character] up as easily as I can. The analogy that I would give is it’s almost like when you’re dating a girl and she kind of has these quirks, but they’re lovable. But once you break up, it’s like, ‘oh, God! She was so annoying! She would always hog the blankets, she always wanted the room at 65º,’ or whatever. Do you know what I mean? Like, the things you used to love about her, now, you hate about her because you don’t love her anymore. So it’s almost to me, that’s where I’m at right now. It’s like, the character isn’t all-of-a-sudden dying his hair black and wearing eyeliner or something like that. It’s just he’s the same kind of he, now it just means something different because his intentions are different.”
A pretty interesting way to sum it up.
We have also covered Vince McMahon’s advice to Sami about his recent heel turn. As well as Sami sharing his feelings about WWE not letting him use his ‘El Generico’ character.
