The Underdog from the Underground

Sami Zayn was a huge name in the independent wrestling circuit before coming to WWE. He arrived in WWE in 2013 and took NXT by storm. He is a former NXT Champion and was awarded as the NXT Superstar of the Year in 2014. His main-roster feud with Kevin Owens has been the highlight of his career.

Since his WWE arrival, Zayn has had classic matches with everyone he’s encountered. From Cesaro to Shinsuke Nakamura to KO, he faced all his opponents brilliantly and was one of the most likeable stars the WWE has had in years. Even his heel run with Owens is getting over with the fans. The fans genuinely seem to hate him. Moreover, his promos are just getting better day by day.

Will John Cena beat Ric Flair's record? A former WCW Champion thinks so HERE

Zayn is one of the best in-ring workers in WWE today. Despite being on the main roster for more than two years, he has not been able to get his hands on any championship. The WWE should harness his potential and set him up as the top babyface of the company. A feud for the WWE Championship is the need of the hour. He has put up amazing matches in the past
