WWE Raw video highlights: Sami Zayn runs the gauntlet

Sami Zayn is headed to WrestleMania for a showdown with Gunther.

Zayn will attempt to end Gunther’s historic Intercontinental title reign at WrestleMania 40. Zayn earned the title shot by winning a number one contender’s gauntlet on Raw last night.

The gauntlet match took place in the main event of Raw and featured Zayn, Chad Gable, Shinsuke Nakamura, Bronson Reed, Ricochet, and JD McDonagh.

Zayn entered the gauntlet fourth. Though he was able to eliminate Reed, Zayn was immediately put at a disadvantage when Reed attacked him and laid him out with a Tsunami.

Nakamura entered next but was eliminated by Zayn after a desperation Helluva Kick. It then came down to Zayn vs. Gable.

Gable could have capitalized on the situation with Zayn down after pinning Nakamura, but Gable allowed Zayn to recover and get to his feet. Gable wanted to beat Zayn fairly. The two battled until Zayn reversed an ankle lock into a pin to get the victory.

Zayn consoled a disappointed Gable following the match. Gunther then made his way out to the stage for a staredown with Zayn.

On commentary, it was mentioned that Zayn competed in the gauntlet match after fasting for the first day of Ramadan.
