WWE Tag Team champion Sami Zayn is celebrating his 39th birthday today (July 12, 2023). While Zayn isn’t asking for presents, he has a special request for fans who want to celebrate with him. Instead of gifts, Zayn is encouraging fans to consider donating to “Sami For Syria,” a partnership he started seven years ago on his birthday to support the Syrian American Medical Society (SAMS) Foundation in funding mobile health clinics in war-torn Syria, the country his parents immigrated from to Canada.
To make a donation to “Sami For Syria,” you can visit the fundraising page at [Sami For Syria](https://fundraise.givesmart.com/vf/Sami4Syria2022). This initiative has been ongoing for several years, and Zayn has been a strong advocate for providing medical aid to the people of Syria.
Zayn’s selfless request aligns perfectly with his character and his dedication to making a positive impact in the world. Instead of focusing on his own celebration, he wants to use his platform to bring attention to a cause that is close to his heart.
In other news, Zayn’s WrestleMania 38 opponent, Johnny Knoxville, made an appearance on today’s episode of “The Bump.” Knoxville, known for his outrageous stunts on the popular “Jackass” series, attempted a similar stunt with a Zayn action figure and a blender. However, the stunt didn’t go as planned, and Knoxville ended up dropping an elbow on the toy and the blender.
Although Zayn may have lost to Knoxville at WrestleMania 38, he got a small victory during this encounter. When Knoxville slammed the Zayn action figure to the ground, it bounced back up and knocked his glasses off his face. This amusing moment added another chapter to their ongoing rivalry.
As we celebrate Sami Zayn’s birthday, it’s important to acknowledge his contributions both inside and outside the wrestling ring. Zayn has consistently used his platform to raise awareness and support for important causes, such as the “Sami For Syria” initiative. His dedication to making a positive impact is a testament to his character and values.
Happy birthday, Sami Zayn! We wish you all the best and applaud your efforts to make a difference in the world.
