NXT star Sami Zayn is confirmed to appear at both the EVOLVE 49 and EVOLVE 50 iPPV shows in New York this coming weekend.
The announcement came courtesy of EVOLVE booker Gabe Sapolsky, who broke the news on social media and then proceeded to publicly credit Triple H for being a man of his word and helping support the independent wrestling scene. Sapolsky and Zayn also shared a brief back-and-forth.
This is said to be part of W#WE’s new working relationship with WWN Live.
Below is the reaction from Sapolsky and Zayn on Twitter.

I can't believe @FightOwensFight blocked me. Sorry man, we just preferred @iLikeSamiZayn back at EVOLVE. You swore too much at EVOLVE 9

Remember when @TripleH said he supports the "Independent Undercurrent." The man backs up his words. Thank you. pic.twitter.com/y3rTxDfpYi
