Ric Flair Explains Why He Doesn’t Like “Comical” Sami Zayn And The Bloodline Storyline

For many fans, Sami Zayn’s current character is certainly the best thing about WWE television. This is largely due to his ability to make the members of The Bloodline break character no matter what, repeatedly making each individual.

While speaking on his To Be The Man podcast, Ric Flair talked about Sami Zayn being part of The Bloodline. Flair made it clear that he doesn’t like Zayn’s comical character.

Well at first, I was very open about it that I didn’t even like him being with The Bloodline. I thought he diluted it.

But I know in sitting and talking with Booker T, everybody looks at it differently. I was with Booker T in New York at an autograph session, and Booker thinks the sun rises and falls on the guy.

Looking at Roman and what Bloodline is and how they conduct themselves, I found him bringing way too much comedy to it. But apparently, it’s worked.

Maybe that’s me being old school. But when you got a serious character like The Usos, who I don’t even think I have to argue are the best tag team right now in business as heels.

Roman is over like nobody else. I didn’t like it because the kid is comical. His character is comical.

Sami Zayn proved his loyalty to The Bloodline due to his actions at Survivor Series WarGames. Clearly however, Flair is not a fan of the character.
