WWE star Sami Zayn has not entered the ring since competing in a Fatal 4-Way #1 Contenders Contest at SummerSlam earlier this month, and there is a valid reason for his absence.
As reported by PWInsider.com, Zayn is currently dealing with a legitimate physical issue. This follows his revelation during a segment on WWE television, in which he stood up to CM Punk on SmackDown and stated that he has a broken bone in his hand. The report confirms that Zayn’s broken hand is not part of a storyline; the injury is real.
It remains unclear how severe the hand injury is and how long it will keep Zayn out of action. Despite the injury, he still made an appearance on final week’s airing of WWE SmackDown.
