10 Predicted End Dates For WWE’s Big Pushes

6. Sami Zayn

Is Sami Zayn's push over right now, as you read this?

You, the wrestling fan he blames for WWE's rampant toxicity, and not Vince McMahon, who just lumbered him with a 1-4 televised win/loss record upon his return from injury?

What's the point of all this? Wouldn't it have made more sense for Zayn to continually refuse to perform for the public he loathes so much, insulting them all the while, building heat for his eventual comeuppance? So that his defeat actually meant and accomplished something?

Zayn has the promo game and sh*t-stain delivery to come out with slimy excuses. The visual gag of Zayn stuck in traffic and enjoying that pet peeve more than performing for the WWE Universe is gold. WWE could have done so much more with this, but instead, this new character has been swept into the meaningless narrative instantly.

That's kind, come to think of it: this new character was put directly into the trash by Braun Strowman recently, and then strung up backstage by Brock Lesnar. He is getting buried backstage more badly than EC3, which is a bold strategy Cotton etc.

Predicted End Date: ...now? A week ago? Next week, if not already?
