Sami Zayn Congratulates Olympic Boxer Imane Khelif, Tells “Bitchasses Online” (Like Logan Paul?) To Get Help

Sami Zayn doesn’t take to Twitter often. Usually, he only does so when he has something important to say. More often than not, he tends to focus on his SamiForSyria mobile clinics, which offer life-saving medical care to conflict-afflicted populations in Syria.
Occasionally, he’ll talk about pro wrestling, like when he waxed poetic about his Intercontinental Championship reign.
But sometimes, just sometimes, he’ll take to Twitter (or X. Or whatever.) to comment on current events.
Such was the case recently when he expressed his opinion on the whole (why is this a) “controversy” surrounding the boxing career of Imane Khelif and her quick defeat of Italian boxer Angela Carini at the Paris Olympics. While Khelif should have been celebrating her victory, much of the internet opted to transvestigate her, alleging that she was actually a trans woman that was allowed to compete in women’s boxing.
Not that it matters, but Khelif is a biological woman.
Still, this didn’t stop people like Elon Musk, JK Rowling and some of the other worst people you know from speculating about her private parts.
One of the worst offenders was former WWE United States Champion Logan Paul. Paul, instead of taking 30 seconds to do even a sliver of research, opted instead to read a few tweets — probably from Andrew Tate, Ben Shapiro, or Kane — and then shout his opinion from a digital rooftop, that being his Twitter account.
Shortly after, Paul apologized for spreading misinformation. Well, not exactly. By “apologize,” we mean “doubled down on his transphobic and then tried to play the victim.”
Later, Paul would be one of several WWE superstars who took photos with former Ring of Honor owner/current independent wrestling video provider/ subject of pedophila sting, Rob Feinstein.
So, it was a weird week.
Sami Zayn had a tough week too, as he lost the Intercontinental Championship to Bron Breakker at Summerslam. Still, Zayn didn’t let that loss suppress his pride for his fellow Muslim, Imane Khelif.
While countless weirdos spent the last week transvestigating her, Khelif was busy kicking ass, which led to her advancing in the Olympics and qualifying to fight for the gold medal.
Sami couldn’t contain his excitement for his “Muslim sister,” nor could he contain his disdain for “bitchasses online” who offered “the most idiotic, bigoted comments I’ve ever seen…”
There’s no way to know if Zayn was directly referring to Logan Paul or not but, like, Paul was one of those aforementioned Bitchasses who made “idiotic, bigoted comments.” Soooo 🤷
