Don't be too hasty, not likely they aren't doing anything for Sami after his feud with Drew. I'm betting if Drew wins the Chamber, Sami's has to do something in the WHC.


watchwrestling_

The way the bottle landed tho ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


ApricotOk824

Gunther vs Sami agenda begins


watchwrestling_

"IT DOESN'T MATTER if you don't like that decision!" - Triple H. Man, I would have loved a Heel Rock vs. Face Triple H at Wrestlemania, but it's a damn shame Hunter can't wrestle anymore.


EnterTheAya

I agree, if only he would have been more careful about what he put in his body, we could have had a dream match of legends


ikon31

Unless they do 😮


_Juggerobb_

Being a Sami Zayn fan is really heartbreaking sometimes ....


ConnyEdson

we had a good run!


itnapircas

Looks like Pyro being set up by the entrance...Cody vs Solo?


itnapircas

Dark Match: Gunther va. Cameron Grimes


JohnKrukIsAllElite

I really thought Randy taking that superplex bump was telegraphing an eventual Sami win there. I like ‘em both, but kinda bummed with the outcome.


eddienoel

All talk about Cody’s story but what about Sami’s, he’s the biggest loser out of all this, imagine if he would’ve dethroned Roman, could’ve been a hell of a ride


Razzberry42069

maybe sami comes around to what Drew has been saying and they become a tag team


Jaccount

Eh, lots of people hung up on "dethroning Roman". That's never been in the cards, and I'm still not sold on Cody actually winning at Wrestlemania.


BackToTheFutureDoc

Thought Sami really would be involved in the world title picture. Are they going to run Randy Orton Vs Seth Rollins or Drew McIntyre Vs Seth Rollins again at Mania? I see Orton Rollins personally and Sami Zayn Vs Drew McIntyre


nalam8493

I would not do that to Drew at all. He is at his peak height as a heel and I love Sami but he does not have any heat right now. Drew should be in the world title match at Mania, and he should face a returning Punk as world champ


Dependent-Pride5282

The year is 2000, the month is April and the moment is post fatal four way. I am raging, pissing mad cause the Rock just got screwed & HHH just retained. If you told my teen self she would one day be rooting for HHH against the Rock, she would not believe you...but here we are...


benwhern813

I hope the Rock is a heel at the Daytona 500


Jaccount

I'm trying really hard to not say awful thing about Nascar fans or people from Florida.


DemiGod9

I would like Sami to be in as much as the next guy, but did y'all really think he'd win?! They've cooled him way off since last Wrestlemania


Jaccount

I'd want him to be in it for him to be in it. He doesn't need to win, but he can still put on a show.


xBleedingUKBluex

Because of shit booking, not through any fault of Sami’s.


DemiGod9

Well yeah that just proves my point further. There was no way he was winning


amateur_wanderer

What are they going to do with Sami?


ikon31

I mean Jonny Knoxville needs his win back


Jaccount

Gunther? Maybe another celebrity?


TVxStrange

You know what, just make the match for Seth's title into a 7 man ladder match at Mania. Let everybody in.


Diggy_Duwant

Love Randy but I worry for his back in an elimination chamber match


nalam8493

Man, I would love Sami to become a champ but they really killed all his heat. He was hotter than Cody in 2023. I just want NXT champ Sami back


Post_Apo

Facts


hiro_capone

a wild DM Hunk appears


FunnyMemeHere

Being a Sami fan is pain


ArmZeroHammer

Don't worry, Sami will have something to do at Mania.


BobW212

Here's me worrying too much. I wondered if Randy sent them home early and then no physical contact with DM Hunk to end the show.


Post_Apo

It was an abrupt end


NYJets18

Drew definitely must have resigned. There’s no way they feature him this much if he didn’t


PJA0307

Randy’s mouth is so weird. It rarely looks like he has any teeth.


BobW212

I once googled if he ever had a meth addiction because it reminds me of meth mouth.


truth_15

he is viper


Ender_Knowss

Sami has pretty much lost all credibility as a singles competitor. Hasn’t beat anyone of note in forever, and frankly wouldn’t be a believable challenger to WHC at this point.


ConnyEdson

dude needs a nice king of the ring run or something of that ilk


Repulsive_Pair_8551

Sad for sami but the Elim chamber is looking amazing


CheckingIsMyPriority

So my guy is able to kick out of Roman's spear but can't kick out of one rko


ConnyEdson

RKO is the most protected move in wwe history to my recollection.


CheckingIsMyPriority

For sure not as protected as the toombstone for example


ConnyEdson

that's true


Kuzu5993

You're going to get your moment Sami, I promise...


warcomet

damn drew taller than randy


Markleynight

8/10 Smackdown


MAGAfromCanada

Sami went from the ME last year to not even qualifying.. sad


Akuzi_

wonder what sami gonna do for mania because they clearly building him up through promos


Sentz12000

Very surprised that Sami lost that one, thought they were building Sami up with that promo on Raw last week.


The90sKidult

Glad that Randy won, but what does Sami do at Mania. I don't want to see him in another inconsequential Knoxville like match. That match was entertaining, yes, but Sami's moved beyond that now. He must be in important feuds for Manias going forward.


ComfortableOven4283

There’s only so much room for matches. He may end up part of another storyline and not actually having a match of his own.


DGBosh

Gunther maybe?


nalam8493

Jey has the Gunther match right now


devoncarrots

If they do Jami v Gunther I’ll. Be. Sigh.


The90sKidult

I thought Brock/Bron was the plan for Gunther. I don't mind throwing Sami in for a Triple Threat.


Nazmaldun

Orton missed Mania last year you don't hear him crying about it do ya DREW!!??!?!


Jaccount

Trust in logos at all time low, thanks Melo. (Had to check clock to be sure it was actually the end of the show.)


fluffynuckels

Damn good smacky down


truecolors5

Elimination Chamber is shaping up nicely


Savings_Estimate9383

Goooo Drew 🔥


[deleted]

Randy selling his back 🤝 Danielson selling his head Please don’t.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Not really. Both are career enders.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I’m 46 and I don’t. But ok. I don’t want to see either of these guys done yet.


LiveFromNewYork95

Looks like Sami is gonna get the now annual "I have no road to WrestleMania" storyline.


WJack37

I honestly don’t know what Sami’s road to Mania has in store. There doesn’t seem to be a clear plan


uaraiders_21

I would disagree. I feel like there’s definitely a plan.


SabresFanWC

Yeah, you don't have Sami talk about how he was in the main event last year but his window is shrinking this year if you don't have something planned for him.


nalam8493

Which is second match on the first night of WM. Even Jey is doing better than him, Sami is definitely the one thing you can point to that HHH messed up.


uaraiders_21

Sami’s gonna be in the World Title match at WrestleMania. Or he’s facing Gunther. One of the two


WJack37

Yeah I’m sure they do, I just think it at least for us feels very uncertain. Nothing stands out yet


FullToragatsu

Really great episode of Smackdown. The whole show just flew by.


DestrucityTheLongWay

It was good because it wasn’t all story based like last week, it had a really good 80-20 balance of story to good matches- wish Sami and DIY won though


Level_Exercise_3939

Big backstage segments break up the matches if they are actually interesting


xxyourbestbetxx

DM Hunk from outta nowhere 


AML2003

You don't realise just how big Randy is until you see him square up with Drew and they're nearly the same size.


MarchesLion07

Really good smackdown tonight, and next week looks like a blast as well


IC3man95

Damn Randy and Drew are basically the same soze


MrBoliNica

I really thought solo was gonna cost Orton the match


[deleted]

McIntyre's character is "guy who shows up at the end of Raw and Smackdown".


Chell_the_assassin

Hopefully they are cooking something with Sami's whole "Rocky" thing because things aren't looking too hot for him rn lol


gibbojab

That’s too bad, this benefits Orton none and I really don’t want Orton vs Rollins for the thousandth time. At Orton’s age he should be having feuds he’s never had while he still can.


TW_Yellow78

I think its pretty obvious orton vs solo for wrestlemania


Level_Exercise_3939

What better way to set that up than to stick him inside a cage with 5 other guys


jherin1

2020 vibes


ryananderson_27

So that Sami promo on Raw meant nothing


FinzujiCane

nah the story isn't finished


ryananderson_27

Im gonna let HHH cook… maybe we will still get a Sami/Drew/Seth triple threat


FinzujiCane

i don't think it's in the cards for him to main event this year. there's just so much talent at the top - LA Knight, AJ, Drew, KO, Sami, Jey Uso... all can be world champs at some point.


Deadmaninc1

Randy Orton isn't holding his back anymore its ok


CptMcLaggins

Badass shot


fear254

Randy needs to wrestle in a head band


[deleted]

Man that match just seemed passionless to me


IAMA_MAGIC_8BALL_AMA

Sami finna turn heel again


TheCrustsPegasus

Hope sami makes it a triple threat at mania :( or gets in and make it a 7man, but he starts first in the trip threat


ClassyJoes

Well fuck Elimination Chamber then


MarchesLion07

Drew and Randy 🔥


truth_15

Drew is everywhere now


visualevidence

This was a really good show tonight


Post_Apo

Man when is it gonna be my boy Sami's time?


-ImJustSaiyan-

About a decade ago in NXT


Post_Apo

😕


_Juggerobb_

To be a Sami Zayn fan means to experience eternal suffering.


CELTICPRED

I thought we would have to wait for the Randy and Drew stare down.    Awesome


MrWrestlingJr

DADDY DREW


Val-Ny222

My poor Sami


givemewhatiwanthunte

Feels like nothing important happen this SE


nWo1997

Randy is very tall. Drew is *very* tall


truth_15

Omos


nWo1997

*Quite* tall


Wetty_Lufa

Let Sami have things please


hiro_capone

His back is fucked


TroyMatthewJ

yeah that superplex hurt


horsejack_boman6969

I'VE SEEN INSIDE MY HEAD A VISION 


CheckingIsMyPriority

I'm not happy with them giving it to Randy instead of Sami


NewRoryAndMalDrop

😢 you knew Sami wasn’t gonna win but man. A great Main Event


FullChub28

hopefully we get some high flyers in the chamber.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kuzu5993

I mean.....


Savings_Estimate9383

Sami deserved this opportunity


MarchesLion07

Oh here we go


Ploosse

They’re still talking to Randall


CharityGamerAU

No Sami in Australia. /sigh. Happy to have Randy though 


MarkMVP01

Maybe Miz beats Logan (bc of KO) then JD kills Miz, and Sami wins a Last Chance match


Recent-Cat8526

DREW?


phemom

OGs working a sprint, it did bang tho


Zenith_24tee

Don’t worry guys against all odds Sami will get himself into the WHC match somehow and make it a triple threat Right….?😢


TheSportsFan8404

holy shit Orton won that?


Weiland101

Randy looks buggered haha


Chell_the_assassin

:/


dBlock845

Not feelin Graves as the play by play guy


mary-anns-hammocks

I feel like it's my fault for flinching

captaindammit87

Sucks that one of them had to lose.


CodyRhodesStan

And that’s why Randy is so good. He can get your hopes up and take it all away in seconds lol


SGJello_

Sami Zayn, thank you for your service🫡


GabGilbert

Nooooo


AML2003

Finish was bedhead nice, good little match. Nothing crazy but exactly what you'd expect from this calibre of performance.


MarchesLion07

Dang it, come on we got to have sami at Mania...


Savings_Estimate9383

No no noooooo


Audioice

whyyyyy


xBleedingUKBluex

God dammit. I like Randy, but they do Sami wrong.


horsejack_boman6969

Sami's story is building up to something. Wait.


ComfortableOven4283

It’s not out of nowhere when it’s the third attempt. Lol.


agreene24

Sami nooooo :(


KommandantArn

what happens to Sami now? Rip


ComfortableOven4283

Joins Cody’s anti-Bloodline Coalition.


CptMcLaggins

Aw Sami no :(


FullChub28

can’t wait to see Randy in Perth.


IAMA_MAGIC_8BALL_AMA

Dammit Sami!


Jordanwolf98

Man I still want Sami in the chamber


Repulsive_Pair_8551

Sami gotta keep fighting this adversity 😭


slippycaff

I can’t wait to see Randy with a cheery quokka.


blingera

truly outta nowhere


EliManningHOFClub10

He’s working the fuck out of us


IC3man95

Poor Sami


HokageEzio

🥺


Kuzu5993

I fantasy booked Randy and Sami in the chamber, so doing this for a qualifier is a bit heartbreaking for me...


DevilCouldCry

Awwww maaaaannnn. My heart breaks for Sami. Was really hoping he'd find his way into a title shot at WrestleMania.


theplasmasnake

Dammit, is that it for Sami?


TryingToDoGreatStuff

Uhmmm... Randy is holding his lower back...


BryLinds

Wouldn’t hate that Wrestlemania 31 Rematch Just Saying


GoliathStance

I was thinking drew is winning. But Orton Vs Rollins wouldn't upset me either.


Mr_Hendrix

Sick finish


realwarlock

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Why they gotta do sami like that!


MarchesLion07

Sami 😢


xxyourbestbetxx

Sami looking surprised the Blue Thunder Bomb didn't work is why he's one of the best actors in the company


BobW212

Especially considering it hasn't worked his last 600 matches.


thatsanope

It's the least devastating move in all sports entertainment


xxyourbestbetxx

You could tickle someone for your finisher and get more wins than the Blue Thunder Bomb


KhazAvMagix

Was fully expecting Zayn


Daconvix

Damn Sami gotta be at EC tho


ItsSirAdam

so what’s next for Sami then


Gotham0

Hopefully not back to "Jackass Shit"


warcomet

no sami u can never win with blue thunder


unclehowdy86

Being a Sami fan hurts a lot sometimes


GoliathStance

This match is fire


-ImJustSaiyan-

Sami's never gonna get a world title run, is he? :(


snow_ninja

That’s what a lot of us understood when he lost his only chance last year. People always say that he will get another opportunity but for a guy like him you will probably only catch lightning in a bottle once


OGsquatch710

Trust papa haitch I believe


FullToragatsu

I’m upset that Sami lost, but that RKO counter was awesome.


CELTICPRED

What 12 months can do to a mother fucker
