Sami Zayn has found himself entangled in a social media spat with pop star Melanie Brown (Mel B) of the Spice Girls.
WWE just wrapped up its latest tour of the UK on Wednesday with a live event from Manchester, England. Mel B, aka Scary Spice, was in attendance for the show at AO Arena. Evidently, she was not impressed with Sami Zayn’s actions.
Zayn took to Twitter to note that he was called a derogatory term by Mel B on the show. He was shocked when Mel B called him a p*ssy.

She then doubled down on her comments when responding to Zayn’s Tweet.
Mel B Attends WWE Event
Mel B and Sami Zayn didn’t get along too well, but she did pose for photos with some of WWE’s top performers.
Here are some photos of Mel B backstage Sasha Banks, Natalya and Charlotte Flair:
Charlotte Flair has been apprehensive about handing out her title in the past. She did give it to Scary Spice, however.
Sami Zayn’s Side of the Story
Sami Zayn spoke about his encounter with Mel B during a recent appearance on WWE’s After the Bell podcast.
Zayn tells Corey Graves that he got knocked to the floor during his match. While on the outside, he’s getting heckled by some fans at ringside.
“So I’m doing a little bit of back-talk,” said Zayn. “It was like, ‘Get up, you’re a coward.’ I’m saying, ‘Hey, I’m hurt. Give me a second. You don’t know what it’s like. I’m in pain right now.’ That’s when the line was uttered by Scary Spice, under her breath mind you. Because she was in the front row, it was almost as if she knelt down and whispered in my ear of what I know and you know what you’re being right now.”
