Sami Zayn has buried the hatchet with CM Punk.
WWE Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn was a recent guest on Gorilla Position. When asked about his past issues with CM Punk, Zayn revealed the two caught up following Punk’s WWE return, and as far as he’s concerned, it’s now a clean slate.
“I’ve known him a very, very long time,” Sami Zayn said. “There have been some ups, there have been some downs. And he showed up and I was like, ‘Look, I just don’t want this to be weird. So, like, you know, say whatever you need to say. Say your piece.’ I said my piece. And like, clean slate. That’s it. You know what I mean?
“You just can’t walk around harboring resentment. Because I just don’t want him to walk by and be like a black cloud. Like, I work here, you know what I mean? Or vice versa. I don’t want him to see me and go [groans]. Hey, whatever happened, cards on the table, let’s just, ‘Clean slate? Good? Good? Ok.’ And that’s it.
Sami Zayn believes it’s exhausting to hate people
“That’s how I approach, I guess not just him but life. I’ve found in my experience it’s kind of exhausting to hate people [laughs]. The only person who’s mad is you, you know what I mean? They’re just walking around, but you’re the one all of a sudden under a cloud of negativity. So I just don’t want that cloud.
“So, has there been some weird stuff between us in the past? Sure. I think 90 percent of people you ask about Punk would probably say the same. But as far as I’m concerned, hey, we gotta work together, you’re here, you’ve been through a lot in your life, let’s just clean slate, start over, and, you know, whatever. That’s it.” [H/T: F4WOnline]
