#2: MITB is for Heels

Seth Rollins was a tremendous Mr. MITB

Money in the Bank is one of the most interesting gimmick matches in WWE. Money in the Bank winners have traditionally been cowardly heels such as Alberto Del Rio, Edge, Seth Rollins, Baron Corbin, etc.

Sami Zayn's current character is made for a Money in the Bank moment. His promos and character work is reminiscent of Seth Rollins' 2015 run, and have made him one of the top heels on the roster.

The obnoxious and hateful Zayn winning the MITB, only to rub it in the faces of audiences, will make for good television every week.


#1: The inevitable Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn feud

Fight Forever!
Fight Forever!

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn have a storied rivalry in WWE, from NXT to the main roster. Both of these superstars are currently heels, with Owens turning to the dark side last month after attacking Kofi Kingston.

Kevin Owens is currently scheduled to face Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship. Imagine Owens finally winning the WWE Championship, only for Sami Zayn to cash in his MITB briefcase and win his first ever title in WWE!

These two superstars are destined to fight forever, and their rivalry should involve the WWE Championship sooner rather than later.
