UPDATE: The undefeated former WWE Intercontinental champion Sami Zayn has found a supporter in current NXT Cruiserweight champion Jordan Devlin. Devlin is in a slightly similar situation to Zayn. While Devlin technically hasn’t been stripped of the title. WWE is holding a tournament to crown an interim Cruiserweight champion, since Devlin is out of the country and unable to travel to the US.

Jordan Devlin wrote on Twitter, “I’m with ya brother. Reject all sham champions.” At the very least, Devlin is showing solidarity with Sami Zayn.

ORIGINAL: As we reported yesterday, WWE has stripped Sami Zayn of the Intercontinental title and will hold a tournament to crown a new champion that begins on Friday’s Smackdown. In a post on Twitter, Zayn reacted to the news and said that no matter what WWE says, he is still the rightful champion.

He wrote: “I disagree with this decision and no matter what anyone says, I am still undefeated and therefore still the Intercontinental Champion.
