Sami Zayn is not a happy bunny. The former Intercontinental Champion is still protesting what he perceives as being mistreatment at the hands of WWE management, but that didn't stop him from reluctantly announcing his entry into the 2021 Royal Rumble match. Zayn isn't going to win it (unfortunately), but he may end up being one of the most entertaining parts of the match.

Because he isn't going to enter the ring, not of his own accord anyway. It wouldn't be a surprise if Zayn draws something like number 17 and refuses to get into the ring, choosing to handcuff himself to the ringside barrier instead, as he did on SmackDown. Corey Graves will call it genius. Michael Cole will be perturbed. For some reason, all the competitors will leave him alone.

All except Big E., of course. Let's go ahead and say that the former Langston draw 19 and stops to consider Sami before entering the ring. At this point, Zayn will beg off and frantically try to uncuff himself, something that is exceedingly hard to do when simultaneously dealing with panic. Zayn won't have to worry though, as Big E. will grab him and drag him away from the barricade, snapping the handcuffs, before throwing Zayn into the ring only to throw him straight back out.
