En entrevue pour le podcast After the Bell, animé par Corey Graves, Sami Zayn a avoué être agréablement surpris des réactions positives des fans depuis qu’il est membre honoraire du clan The Bloodline.
Zayn soutient que ce n’était pas évident de voir un Canadien d’origine syrienne faire partie d’un groupe formé de membres de la famille Anoa’I.
Il soutient que tout est question d’exécution. Une telle idée n’avait pas de sens sur papier, mais en fait c’est devenu une grande réussite.
“It’s not something you predict ahead of time. It’s not something that you want to see or would think would make sense. But in the execution [it has worked.]
“The concept is a bit strange. All the Bloodline is a family, and here’s this person who is clearly not family. The whole thing doesn’t make sense on paper. But it’s the perfect example of when things work in execution more than they do on paper.”
“All the Bloodline is a family, and here’s this person who is clearly not family.”
Zayn cite comme exemple le “People’s Elbow” de The Rock, qui était bien plus efficace comme prise de finition en mode réel que sur papier.
“There are so many things that I think you could say the same about. The easiest one that we often fall back to, just as an example: the People’s Elbow. If you wrote down ‘Rock comes up with a new move called the People’s Elbow, where he stands over the guy and does this,’ it doesn’t read like something that’s going to become iconic.”
“It’s the execution. It’s the performer, the time, and the place, and all these variables that make it magic and make it special.”
Zayn est donc vraiment surpris de l’impact de son arrivée au sein de The Bloodline, même s’il s’attendait à ce que ça soit bon.
“I’m not entirely surprised at the success of the segments that we’ve done, but it has still exceeded my expectations.”
“I knew it would be good, but I didn’t think that fans would take to it the way they have.”
