More on Sami Zayn Requesting Time Off – As noted, Sami Zayn is set for a hiatus into 2024 after a year marked by his standout feuds and partnership with Kevin Owens. Last week on Monday Night Raw, an injury angle played out during Zayn’s match against Drew McIntyre, leading to McIntyre’s victory. Zayn appeared to receive medical attention until McIntyre attacked him.
Initial reports suggested Zayn requested time off, which WWE granted, though the start date for his hiatus wasn’t specified. This week’s Raw continued the narrative, citing Zayn’s “partially torn meniscus” without a clear return timeline.
Dave Meltzer mentioned on Wrestling Observer Radio that Zayn’s request for time off wasn’t specifically tied to an injury, though the mention of a partial meniscus tear might hold truth due to wrestlers often grappling with ongoing injuries. He emphasized uncertainty regarding the legitimacy of Zayn’s injury status, emphasizing Zayn’s request for time off.
“I was told that he had asked for time off. The partially torn meniscus may be legit because guys are always hurt anyway. Last week…..I was told Sami is gonna be off for a while. He asked for time off. Not over an injury or anything like that…I don’t know if he’s got a partially torn meniscus or not. He very possibly does, but he actually asked time off, regarding the injury situation,” Meltzer stated.
