SAMI ZAYN was filmed furiously arguing with a spectator at a WWE event after the wrestling star was allegedly targeted with homophobic abuse.

A house show at Florida’s Daytona Beach was marred by one fan reportedly calling Zayn, 35, a “Canadian f***ot”.

In a video uploaded to social media, the wrestler is seen being held back by security while shouting “get out of my f****** face” and “homophobic moron” at the spectator.

The person allegedly hurling the abuse at SmackDown performer Zayn, real name Rami Sebei, was later ejected from the event.

WWE fan John Betz posted his witness account on Twitter, writing: “Sami’s music hit, the jackass immediately starts chanting ‘Canadian F****t’.

“Sami walks by, he yells it again and Sami gives him a ‘really?’, kinda like ‘not cool’. But he kept saying homophobic stuff.

“The guy then started getting in Sami’s face knowing Sami wouldn’t hit him so he asked for security to handle it.

“Sami did the right thing by giving the guy one quick moment to shut up, he chose not to.

“It’s not hard to not be racist, sexist or homophobic at a wrestling show.

“Sami did come by after the guy was booted and said ‘Hey this seat is empty now, what happened?’ and laughed.”

Zayn, who was born in Montreal to Syrian parents, signed with WWE in 2014 and is known for being politically vocal – often posting on Twitter about topics such as the war in Syria and healthcare.

Fans online overwhelmingly backed the wrestler for his response to the remarks, Ashley posting on Twitter: “This world needs more people like Sami Zayn.”

Wrestling fan Kyle agreed, writing: “Here’s a tip: Don’t yell homophobic comments to Sami Zayn. It will not end well for you.”
