And the path of redemption will go through helping others.

Miz quizzed him on who among the SmackDown stars needs Zayn’s help. Zayn mentioned that one of them is ready to come out right away. Shinsuke Nakamura’s music hit and he entered the ring. Zayn explained that Nakamura is like a poet, but he is in pain because he can’t articulate his feelings and Zayn will speak for him. And if someone has to talk to Nakamura, he would have to talk to Zayn.
