6 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Mar 18)

Ups...

6. Anything Goes = Logical

WWE WrestleMania 38 Sami Zayn Johnny Knoxville

Sami Zayn announcing that his match with Johnny Knoxville is now "Anything Goes" made perfect sense. This was always the right way to go with a one-on-one match between pair, if only because they'll need all the bells and whistles they can muster to make it watchable for longer than a few minutes.

Solid decision then.

Zayn's promo was a typically delusional rant too, and that's always fun. WWE also had Knoxville accept almost immediately, which helps put him over as a reckless stuntman incomer who doesn't realise just how badly Sami could hurt him if he wants to.

Nobody should have a problem with a match like this. It's an undercard attraction between celeb and wrestler, and it'll be violent enough (you really think Knoxville won't do some borderline-stupid sh*t?!) to pique interest for 10 minutes or so.
