Johnny Knoxville has returned to WWE.
During a segment on SmackDown that featured Sami Zayn’s Intercontinental Championship celebration, Knoxville came out to interrupt but Zayn wound up attacking him and hitting the Helluva Kick – twice!
Later in the show, Adam Pearce was shown backstage with Sami Zayn where they were discussing the attack. This led to Ricochet coming up and challenging Zayn to a title match, which Pearce made official for next week.
Also set for next week’s episode of WWE SmackDown is Ronda Rousey vs. Sonya Deville.
For what it’s worth, Sami Zayn vs. Johnny Knoxville is currently set to take place at WrestleMania 38.
