Sami Zayn has seen and done it throughout his illustrious wrestling career, but the one thing that has alluded him is a World title in WWE. There’s no denying that the former Bloodline star has the popularity to work at that level due to his popularity with the WWE Universe, but the company has been resistent to pull the trigger on him winning the big one.

Putting him against the biggest and most formidable opponents would only help as Zayn could sell the injuries he picks up along the way. He’s at his best when working as a major underdog, and that’s why this tournament is the ideal chance to push him, as Zayn would be able to draw fans in over the weeks to come.
Sami Zayn Is Already Working With The Main Event Stars On WWE Raw
WWE Just Needs To Give Him The Opportunity
- He has a long history with Jey Uso from their days in the Bloodline.
- Zayn can go through the likes of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
- Seth Rollins could cash in his Money in the Bank contract on Zayn.
Zayn is heavily involved in the current World Heavyweight Championship storylines, and that would make him an easy option to slot in. Fans are already invested in him and this angle, with Zayn feuding against Seth Rollins and his group while being close friends with Jey Uso due to their days in the Bloodline.
Seeing him overcome the likes of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed to earn a shot against his long-time friend would create a top babyface match for SummerSlam. That would also give WWE the perfect person for Rollins to cash his Money in the Bank briefcase on to ensure that this storyline could last for a long time with real emotional peaks.
Triple H enjoys booking talent in long-term storylines like this, and that’s why Zayn should be someone WWE is considering to win the King of the Ring, as it would make the most sense in terms of the ongoing television programming.

WWE typically rotates the World titles around the same few top stars, and breaking into that isn’t easy. Zayn has been part of WWE since 2013, and he’s been unable to do it outside of having a few small opportunities. However, Triple H’s awarding of the World Heavyweight Championship to Jey Uso proved he’s ready to push talent to that level when the fans are behind them.
Zayn has consistently been one of WWE’s most popular stars throughout his entire run, but his time in the Bloodline elevated that to a main event level. The company missed a golden chance with him being the one to dethrone Roman Reigns when fans were desperate to see it, and they must not waste Zayn completely by never giving him this moment.
