5 WWE Superstars who could have a character change before fans return

#2. Sami Zayn - Is a face turn long overdue for him in WWE?

Sami Zayn's heel run in WWE has lasted longer than his run as a babyface. While he was a beloved babyface from 2013 to 2016, things changed the following year, and he aligned with Kevin Owens at Hell in a Cell 2017.

While he had to take a few periods of time away, he has proved to be an all-rounder as a heel. While the negative aspect is the fact that he has taken away many moves from his arsenal, he has come leaps and bounds as a character.

He has even gotten regular screen time, and 2020 was arguably the best year of his WWE career in terms of accolades. Since then, he has been presented as a consistent title challenger. When crowds return, Zayn will continue to get booed because that's how good he is.

Otherwise, we wouldn't be surprised to see WWE start the process of a face turn. While it's hard to see it happening before crowds return, it's a long-term storyline worth building to. Sami Zayn as a babyface is money.
