WWE wrestler Sami Zayn crashed the premiere of Jackass Forever and confronted star Johnny Knoxville on the red carpet. Knoxville has recently appeared on WWE television over the past few weeks to promote the upcoming Jackass sequel, and even participated in the Royal Rumble match as an official entrant.
Zayn had teased his appearance on the red carpet on this Twitter, having some fun playing mind games with Knoxville. Arriving on the red carpet, the former Intercontinental Champion boasted the fact that he had eliminated Knoxville at the Rumble, feeling vindication for the weeks of aggravation that Knoxville has caused, however the Jackass star had the last laugh, tossing Zayn off the premises all the while zapping him with a cattle prod.

Zayn made his way into the theater, continuing to taunt the star on Instagram Live, claiming that Knoxville does “all of these stunts to overcompensate for the fact that he is a very, weak weak little man.”

This doesn’t seem to be the last of their feud either, and could culminate at Wrestlemania 38 in Houston in April, but Knoxville is determined to have the final word.
“That lowdown, dirty Sami Zayn! Anyone but that lowdown and dirty Sami Zayn taking me out,” Knoxville said on ESPN’s SportsNation earlier this week. “But it took four men, four Superstars to take me out. But they haven’t heard the last of me, I will be world champion!”
Jackass Forever hits theaters Friday.
