• Their most recent matches occurred at Saturday Night’s Main Event and on Raw
• McIntyre’s first loss since October 2023 came against Jey Uso on Raw’s Netflix debut

Key Details

McIntyre posted on social media: “Sami even taking L’s in crowd fights now,” referring to a fan who resembled Zayn involved in a brawl at MSG.

Recent History

• McIntyre defeated Zayn at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December
• He won their rematch on Raw two days later
