Amy Schumer won’t make her “Saturday Night Live” debut for another few days, but the comedienne is already putting a few new punchlines to the test.
“SNL” regular Vanessa Bayer teamed up with her “Trainwreck” co-star for a series of promo teasers released on Wednesday, in which both funny ladies deliver their fair share of zingers.
Hosting “SNL” may mark another milestone in Amy’s series of career breakthroughs, but in one spot Vanessa says her pal’s success is headed for inevitable demise.

“Amy, this is your year,” Vanessa says proudly.
“You just won an Emmy!” she continues, listing the Comedy Central star’s recent triumphs before switching her tone.

“And that’s when it all came crashing down,” Vanessa says ominously.
In another bit, Amy suggests that stardom has already gone to her head as she forgets that Vanessa even appeared in “Trainwreck.”
“We had a lot of scenes together,” Vanessa says of the hit comedy, after Amy asks if she’s had a chance to see it.
“I like 100 percent believe you,” Amy says, stifling an eye roll.
