Get ready to laugh your boots off, Toronto! WWE’s Sami Zayn, the man who’s as hilarious on the mic as he is fierce in the ring, is set to deliver a knockout punchline at his upcoming stand-up comedy show. After slaying it at the Netflix Is A Joke festival in LA—with a little help from his in-ring nemesis and “Jackass” prankster Johnny Knoxville—Zayn is bringing his comedic chops to the Great White North.
WWE just dropped the bombshell: “Sami Zayn & Friends Do Toronto” will hit the Danforth Music Hall on Thursday, July 4, just in time to set the stage for WWE Money in the Bank. Expect a star-studded comedy and variety show featuring WWE talents and surprise TV and comedy guests. Last time, Zayn’s show saw appearances from Becky Lynch and Wee Man, so who knows what hilarity will ensue this round?
Tickets go on presale tomorrow, with the general sale kicking off on Wednesday. And for the die-hard fans, there are limited meet and greet passes up for grabs. Imagine getting a selfie with the Intercontinental Champion himself—definitely worth the hustle.
This isn’t Zayn’s first rodeo in the comedy ring. He previously hosted a charity comedy event in Toronto back in 2019, proving he’s no stranger to making folks laugh out loud. Despite his comedic endeavors, Zayn remains a force to be reckoned with in the WWE universe, recently defending his Intercontinental Championship against Chad Gable at WWE Clash at the Castle.
With Money in the Bank looming, tonight’s “WWE Raw” promises to shed light on what’s next for Zayn. Will he be cracking jokes or cracking skulls? Either way, Sami Zayn is sure to keep us entertained!
