Early Life, Family, and Education

Sami was raised a Muslim, the son of Syrian parents who moved to Canada in the ‘70s from their native Homs.  Growing up, Sami learned three languages – Arabic, French and English. From an early age, Sami was interested in wrestling, and after reaching a certain age, he started training under Patty the Kid, Jerry Tuite and Savio Vega.

Career Beginnings

Sami started wrestling under the name El Generico in the International Wrestling Syndicate (IWS) and was successful on debut as he defeated his opponent by a count out. This was mid- 2002, but the next year Sami suffered his first loss, when he fought Carl Ouellet and Kevin Steen in a three-way match. He had his revenge on Steen in 2008, when he defeated Kevin for the IWS World Heavyweight Championship. As Sami’s career progressed he soon entered new promotions, and joined the Pro Wrestling Guerilla (PWG), where he won five tag team Championship titles with four different wrestlers, Human Tornado, Quicksilver, Kevin Steen and Paul London. Since then he has fought in a number of promotions in the US and Japan, such as Chikara, Dragon Gate, and Ring of Honor, among many others, building a name for himself until he ultimately joined WWE.

WWE Career and Rise to Prominence

He signed his first contract with WWE in January 2013, and the following month made his first ring appearance in the developmental promotion NXT. However, he didn’t wrestle the first time he entered the ring, but instead fought in March that year, fighting in a tag team match and using his own name. He ultimately chose the name of Sami Zayn, and officially debuted as a wrestler in May, defeating Curt Hawkins and Antonio Cesaro on the same night. It was in late 2014 that Sami reached stardom when he defeated Titus O’Neil for the NXT Championship title; he held the title for the next 62 days, before he was defeated by his longtime enemy and later tag-team partner Kevin Steen, who now went under the name Kevin Owens. He was badly injured during the fight, and went on a seven-month hiatus. Upon his return to the ring, Zayn defeated Tye Dillinger, but just five months later, he announced his retirement from NXT and wrestling, due to his injuries, following the fight against Shinsuke Nakamura, which Sami lost. However, he returned to the ring in early 2016, and was drafted to RAW promotion this time.
