#4 Best/Worst: Big win but does it matter?

Sami Zayn finally had his hands raised, after ages

Sami Zayn is undeniably one of the best wrestlers in the world. WWE has booked him as an underdog, and therefore, despite the fact that he's been in the company for a long time now, Zayn has not picked up a big win convincingly or captured any gold.

This week, despite the distraction by Maria Kanellis, Zayn triumphed over Mike Kanellis and finally had his moment. We hope WWE continues this dominant run and makes him a believable contender for the top prize or at least for the mid card. Knowing the kind of physiques WWE likes, they probably will not.

In many ways, this was a rather tepid show heading into Summerslam and did not get us excited. Let's hope Raw can change all that. Join us again tomorrow for more 'Best and Worst'. Until then, feel our power of love.
