10 Wrestlers We're Most Thankful For In 2020

2. Sami Zayn

Unquestionably one of the good guys in professional wrestling, Sami Zayn is a bold, compassionate, and principled man who dedicates a considerable part of his life to aiding those less fortunate than him.

Sami For Syria is one of the most undercovered things in professional wrestling. Through the project, the Syrian-Canadian wrestler has raised over $70,000 to establish a mobile clinic in northwest Syria, saving an untold amount of lives in the process. He has used his fame and platform not to luxuriate in wealth and other success symbols, but to help a struggling part of the planet the desperately needs it, and while you won't hear about it on WWE television anytime soon, Zayn is legitimately making a difference. He's a diamond.

Onscreen, Zayn is an incredible chickensh*t heel. Few wrestlers do as good a job of making you want to see them getting punched in the face. He is a perfectly obnoxious Intercontinental Champion who has finally found an excellent role that works both for himself and the people penning his material - if he isn't doing it himself.
