Sami Zayn comes off as a superstar who WWE fans will appreciate a lot more when he's gone. Despite being the biggest babyface in NXT, and having a great face run on the WWE main roster for a year-and-a-half, Zayn has largely been a heel.

Those who followed him in his NXT run couldn't possibly imagine Sami Zayn as a heel, but he has done it brilliantly. It's a bit surprising that he only won his first title on the WWE roster four years later in 2020.

Sami Zayn is undoubtedly one of the most talented superstars in the WWE roster. As long as he isn't released, he will always provide great value to the company regardless of whether he is a babyface or heel.

Listen now! Always great talking to Renee!This is a small part of the “authenticity” conversation. There’s a whole other part that suggests perhaps there is no authentic self, and looks at the idea of authenticity from a more deterministic point of view. pic.twitter.com/KAIK2DLK3F

There is time for him to have a breakout moment. As we've seen before, all it takes is one moment of magic to start an incredible run. Sami Zayn is capable of being a World Champion. While some argue that he doesn't have the "look" of a WWE World Champion, neither does his best friend Kevin Owens. Owens still managed to defy the odds - and so can Sami Zayn.
