Zayn took this to Twitter to share about this matchup against one of the greats in the business. Sami said that he is looking forward to facing the greatest of all time, Mysterio, and he expects him to win the game and advance to the next round.

“Looking forward to facing the greatest luchador of all time tomorrow night. Also looking forward to advancing in the #KingOfTheRing tournament.”

Sami Zayn recently slammed the Fox for picking him last at the WWE Draft 2021. Mysterio and Sami will be looking to become the first King of the Ring since Baron Corbin won the tournament way back in 2019.

This will be the mark of the first Queen’s Crown tournament match in WWE history, and what a way to start the proceedings with two of the top matches to start the tournament with.

WWE also announced a contract signing between former SmackDown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair, Sasha Banks, and current WWE Champion Becky Lynch for WWE Crown jewel.

It will be interesting to see who will become the first-ever Queen of the tournament and how Zayas will fight against one of the industry’s best.
