It must be a powerful feeling to emerge from behind the curtain and step out onto the WrestleMania stage. For Sami Zayn, 'Mania 32 provided his first experience of wrestling's largest event, and he looked positively starstruck as he danced down the massive aisle.

Goosebumps must have been rife as Zayn's music played, and he revealed to Chris Jericho on his podcast what was going through his mind. What was going on in his head actually came out of his mouth, the wrestler cursed several times as he was jigging to the ring. He simply couldn't stop himself from bursting with excitement.

Struggling to take it all in, he then admitted to swearing again when he heard the music for Kevin Owens. Good friends in real life, Zayn was delighted to hear the live crowd go nuts for the then-Intercontinental Champion, and he says the pop sounded thunderous inside the ring.

WWE gets a bad rep sometimes, but it's amazing that the company can still provide moments like these for people who truly love the industry they work in.

Zayn should be thankful those curse words weren't picked up by the microphones though!
