NXT star Sami Zayn spoke to WWE.com this week about the shoulder injury that he suffered on RAW prior to his match against John Cena.
Zayn underwent an MRI on Tuesday. While WWE has not provided a formal update on his status, it’s believed to be an injury to his rotator cuff.
Here’s what Zayn said about his situation:
“I’m an easy-going, take-things-as-they-come kind of guy, not just in the ring, but in life. Experiences like this make you realize that a lack of certainty can be very unnerving. Not knowing what the future has in store for you can be unsettling, especially when you’re riding that momentum. In the blink of an eye, things change.
That’s the nature of the industry we work in. It can be frustrating, but you have to keep your chin up and not get too down on yourself and believe that in some way that it’s all for the best. A lot of fans have been really supportive and have commended me. In a weird way, it could be the worst thing that ever happened to me or the best thing that ever happened to me. One way or another, it will all work out. You keep going forward and you get ahead.
I’m not going to let this destroy me, so you take it as it comes. You deal with it, see what you can do, do your best and it will all be OK. I’ll keep driving forward.”
