4. The Podcasts Ain’t Working

Right, it feels crap to moan about Sami Zayn when he's been so ludicrously entertaining for so long and typically makes the best of bad situations. However, this live podcast thing WWE has him doing? Yeah, it sucks balls, and they're not even giving Sam decent characters to bounce off of.

Shinsuke Nakamura was never going to fill that role.

Yours truly isn't sure that continuing Zayn's feud with Johnny Knoxville into WrestleMania is the right call either, especially with what's due to happen on next week's show. Anybody who doesn't want spoilers on that should avoid this link.

If you clicked it, then you'll get the gist of what's being argued here. No-one needs to see Jackass stars in spots that were once reserved for super-workers like Randy Savage, Ricky Steamboat, Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon, put it that way.
