5 current WWE Superstars who can be excellent announcers just like Samoa Joe

#1 Sami Zayn

It would be offensive if I left Sami Zayn out of this list. But the main reason why he is #1 here is his fearlessness that takes him a step ahead of everyone else in the race. Zayn can be brutal in his clapbacks while calling the in-ring action, as has been seen on several occasions in the past.

Currently, Zayn is seen accompanying the Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura on SmackDown as the latter’s manager/hype man. Needless to say, he has been doing a fantastic job in this role and has certainly been able to draw a lot more attention towards Nakamura on the Blue brand.

We are not sure when Zayn will return to regular in-ring action but for now at least, he would make for an excellent commentator in WWE. As I mentioned before, he never shies away from standing up for himself and speaking the truth, no matter how difficult it could be for the listener to digest, making him a perfect fit for the commentary team.
