Will Sami Zayn help Shinsuke Nakamura to retain his Championship?
Sami Zayn has proved his loyalty when he's part of a team a number of times throughout his partnership with Kevin Owens, which means that it's likely he's able to help Shinsuke Nakamura to retain his Championship this weekend.

Zayn has never won a singles Championship of his own on the main roster which could be why the company has moved him into a position where he's able to help Nakamura to push forward his career instead.
Nakamura has needed a boost for a long time and Zayn could finally be the person to help him push forward as Champion. The duo has only been working together for a few weeks which means that it could be too soon for WWE to plant seeds for a feud between them, but they could in the coming months.

If Zayn realizes that The Miz could be building towards a win then he can get Nakamura disqualified and help him to retain his Championship. The Artist has become the kind of Champion that would take this loss because he's able to retain his title, but it would mean a rematch would be in his near future.
