For the first time this year, Sami Zayn won a singles match at WWE Hell in a Cell. Though he has picked up some victories in tag team matches, Zayn had been on a lengthy losing streak on his own. But he’s finally back on the winning side of things.
Zayn faced his bitter rival, Kevin Owens in a singles match at WWE Hell in a Cell, where he avenged his loss to “The Prizefighter” at WrestleMania.
Heading into the bout, Owens was not 100%, as Commander Azeez brutally attacked him on WWE SmackDown this past week. This injury was evident throughout Owens’ match with Zayn; thanks to the two Nigerian Nails he took from Azeez, Owens struggled to breathe, and this disadvantage allowed Zayn to control the match at various points.
That's gonna leave a mark! ?#HIAC

After Zayn countered one attempt, Owens hit the Stunner while both men were outside the ring. Still, the enemies kept fighting, and in the end, Zayn pinned Owens with the Helluva Kick.
#HIAC's newest winner is … @SamiZayn!
No conspiracy, just victory tonight.
