Sami Zayn Defeats Karrion Kross at WWE SummerSlam 2025

WWE SummerSlam 2025 featured a significant match for Karrion Kross against his longtime rival Sami Zayn.

Kross had been provoking Zayn to turn to the dark side, leading to confrontations on Raw where both wrestlers claimed victories.

At SummerSlam, Zayn defeated Kross with a Helluva Kick at MetLife Stadium, marking a crucial win for Zayn.

Following the match, questions arose about Kross's future in WWE as his contract was reportedly set to expire in August without a new deal in place.

Despite Kross's popularity among fans, his role in WWE may diminish moving forward due to his in-ring performance and conflicting character portrayal.

In contrast, Zayn's character development hints at a potential world title win in the future, with ongoing challenges leading to a possible redemption arc in late 2025 or early 2026.

Zayn's victory at SummerSlam sets the stage for further obstacles and eventual triumph in his wrestling journey.
