5 People who could become aligned with Sami Zayn

#4 EC3

EC3 needs a change, and a partnership with Zayn could be a way to do it

Although EC3 doesn't need anyone to speak for him, he hasn't exactly been given ample time to speak on the mic. It was one of his strengths in both Impact and NXT but for whatever reason, his promo time has been little. Instead, he's been in the parade of stars chasing around whomever is holding the 24/7 Championship that week.

By recasting EC3 as someone who refuses to speak, the excuse to have Zayn speak for him could easily be used. He's been someone who has been overlooked for the most part since joining the main roster earlier this year. He's clearly talented, otherwise the WWE would not have signed him.

EC3 does have the a great ability to speak with his facial expressions, so that could be a way of those two communicating. If they want to add another layer to his character, they could even incorporate some type of talent or artistic talent that EC3 might secretly have. Zayn said he was an artist and that's what he had in common with Nakamura. By giving EC3 another layer and pairing him with Zayn, the WWE could give him a direction that he hasn't yet had.
