Becky Lynch had a surprise union planned for the newly crowned Undisputed WWE Champion Sami Zayn.<\/p>\n

In an exclusive video shared on WWE\u2019s social media platforms, Lynch brought in Kevin Owens to greet Zayn. The two WWE stars have been friends for more than two decades, first meeting at an independent wrestling promotion in the early 2000s. Lynch and Zayn\u2019s friendship began around 2009 when struggling to make a name while coming up in the industry. The trio were photographed in Zayn\u2019s new t-shirt highlighting his WWE Title win. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m floored by the outpouring support. I genuinely thought that six people like me and everyone else finds me annoying, and it turns out everyone loves me. I\u2019m honestly shocked,\u201d Zayn told Lynch and Owens in the clip.<\/p>\n

After Night of Champions, Owens and Lynch were the first few WWE stars to applaud and celebrate<\/a> the new champion\u2019s victory. <\/p>\n

Owens has been sidelined from in-ring action since April last year due to a neck injury, however, he is involved in WWE\u2019s Legends & Future Greats program. He also made an appearance at NXT\u2019s Great American Bash as host <\/a>for the Tailgate and Watch Party outside the Performance Center. <\/p>\n
