Sami Zayn has a new entrance theme.
On the October 22 edition of WWE SmackDown, Sami Zayn answered Drew McIntyre's open challenge, but fans were treated to much more than just a match. Sami's theme hit, and while the first few bars sounded familiar, it faded and transitioned into a completely new song.

Sami debuted his old song in 2014 when he was still a member of the NXT roster and has been using it consistently for the past seven years.
As far as the match goes, Sami performed admirably. He weathered a suplex storm from McIntyre before gaining control by throwing Drew into the corner post a couple of times. He had McIntyre set up for the Helluva Kick, but he got ahead of himself by performing Drew's pre-Claymore countdown, only to get caught with a Claymore of his own. Sami was promptly pinned and defeated by McIntyre.
