Next month, WWE's Sami Zayn will be performing stand-up comedy in Los Angeles.
Zayn announced yesterday that he'll be doing a live comedy show as part of this year's Netflix is a Joke festival. Titled "Sami Zayn & Friends," the show is being held at the Avalon Hollywood on Saturday, May 11.
Tickets for Zayn's show are going on sale to the general public this Friday (April 5). A pre-sale is taking place today starting at 10 a.m. Pacific time using "SAMI" as the promo code.
This is the second-ever Netflix is a Joke festival. Billed as the largest comedy event in history, the festival is taking place from May 1-12. It's set to feature more than 300 events with some of the top comedians in the world.
While this is mostly unfamiliar territory for Zayn, it's not the first time he's presented a comedy show. He put on the SamJam Comedy Hour in Toronto during SummerSlam week in 2019.
Zayn is competing in one of the most anticipated matches at WrestleMania 40 this weekend. He's challenging Gunther for the Intercontinental title at night one on Saturday (April 6).
As the longest-reigning Intercontinental Champion in history, Gunther has held the title for more than 650 days. He decimated Zayn in an angle that went down on Monday's episode of Raw.
