5 reasons why Sami Zayn could turn heel at WWE Hell In A Cell 2017

#4 Create a heel turn for the ages

Tommaso Ciampa turning on Johnny Gargano

There are just some people you don’t expect to turn heel: Daniel Bryan, Becky Lynch, Johnny Gargano… Sami Zayn.

But at this point, would a heel turn really hurt Sami? Instead of having him compete in meaningless matches on SmackDown, why not try him out as a heel and create a moment fans will remember forever in the process?

Let’s say he’s involved in the main event. Imagine a situation where Kevin Owens looks set to defeat Shane McMahon when, all of a sudden, Zayn appears. Maybe his jolly music hits. Maybe he sprints to the ring to save the day. Maybe he prevents KO from shoving Shane O’Mac off the cell.

However it’s set up, just at a moment when Zayn looks set to rescue Shane, he could decide to turn on him instead. If that happens, I dare say it’ll be up there with KO/Y2J and Ciampa/Gargano for double-cross of the year.
