Sami Zayn offers support for Chris Rock in his own humorous way

Sami Zayn is set to take on Jackass Forever star Johnny Knoxville in an “Anything Goes” match at WrestleMania 38

Will Smith slapped Chris Rock after the latter joked about the popular actor’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith. The uneasy incident took place when Rock, kidded that Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett should be in a G.I. Jane movie. He was referring to her shaved head. Jada suffers from alopecia.

Sami Zayn, who has quite the rivalry building with Johnny Knoxville tweeted that Chris Rock should call him mentioning he knows how it feels. Knoxville recently exposed Zayn’s mobile number. The former Intercontinental champion’s phone has been spammed by strangers ever since.

“.@chrisrock call me, I know how it is.”

Zayn later replied to his own tweet saying it’s better if Rock DMs him instead of calling as his phone is blowing up thanks to Knoxville’s exploits.

“Actually just DM me, my phone is blowing up”

Actually just DM me, my phone is blowing up

The feud between Zayn and Knoxville started towards the beginning of this year. The 51-year-old entered the Royal Rumble and was eliminated by his rival, Zayn. The two of them started their engaging feud during an episode of SmackDown before the Royal Rumble PPV. Knoxville cost Zayn his Intercontinental Title after being viciously attacked a week before. An irate Zayn challenged Knoxville to a match at WrestleMania 38 which the latter accepted gleefully.

Twitter reactions to the Will Smith-Chris Rock altercation

Twitter has been divided with mixed reactions coming up ever since the unforeseen moment occurred at the Oscars.

The Twitter world has had different opinions on the incident. Some are of the opinion that Rock took things too far in the name of comedy while others have aligned with him opining that Smith had no right to hit the 57-year-old.

Will smith defending his wife his understandable. But doing so by physically assaulting another man who is known for makes jokes is just plain stupidity. Chris rock's joke had no malicious harm or threatening effect. Everyone would just 'laugh and forget'.

Alternatives exist.

Leaving the drama aside. Seeing Will Smith with an Oscar in his hand is amazing. He should have got one of these a long time ago. So damm happy and proud of him, a terrific actor as well as a persona. Will is the goat 🐐. #WillSmith pic.twitter.com/mu7fUFxeG5

Will Smith let himself down and showed himself as a weak man who can't control his anger. Violence should never be condoned.

but the actions of Will Smith dont over shadow how unacceptable Chris Rock joking about someone's health is.
