Sami Zayn was recently a guest on E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness. During the podcast, he spoke on a wide variety of topics about his wrestling career. This includes talking about his recent heel turn and pairing with Kevin Owens.
Sami shared a bit of insight into his relationship with Vince McMahon, saying that it has grown since being involved in the major storyline with Kevin Owens and Shane McMahon.
Here is what Zayn said about his relationship with Vince:
“My interactions with Vince have been a little more limited because I haven’t been in as many prominent storylines. Now this is something that I feel like he has sunk his teeth into. Just to get to pick his brain a tiny bit about how he views the character”
Zayn shared some things that Vince told him after turning heel that seem very small but have really helped him. One example was Vince telling him to smile as a way to generate heat:
“He didn’t even get into detail. Some of it he would just say smile out there. I’m like really? Smile? And then I would do it and I’m like oh man, of course… It’s so much more heat than just going out there and scowling and being like: ‘you did me wrong’, yeah whatever, you’re angry, cool. Everyone is angry. But if you are smiling, it is so much more obnoxious and so much more dislikeable. It is such a simple thing. Once you execute it and it works, it’s just another light bulb that goes off”
