Sami Zayn vs. Mike Kanellis: SmackDown LIVE, July 18, 2017

With his wife, Maria Kanellis, watching on, Mike Kanellis makes his in-ring debut against Sami Zayn.

Several weeks of interruptions and backstage altercations created palpable tension that finally reached its boiling point when Mike Kanellis, who smashed a vase over Sami Zayn’s back the week prior, made his SmackDown LIVE debut against Zayn.

After Maria hopped into the ring to prevent Zayn from downing her husband with a Helluva Kick, Mike capitalized on the distraction and snagged the victory with a wicked right hand and an incredibly impressive maneuver, once again forcing Zayn to feel the “power of love.”
