Ups...

4. Sneaky Sami Is Sneaky

Rey Mysterio has been telling the media recently that he'd rather pass ye olde torch to his son Dominik than feud with him on WWE TV. Sorry, Rey, but it doesn't look like you'll get your wish. Being honest, the masked legend might be trying to throw fans off the scent of this year's most obvious split anyway.

Enter Sami Zayn.

SmackDown's resident delusional conspiracy theorist is content to play devil's advocate between father and son for fun, and he's perfect for the role. Zayn's mic skills often fly under the radar (people take them for granted by now), but he excels even in the shortest segments.

His interactions with Dom on Friday were a joy to behold. Although true there's no way Dominik and Sam Zayn are about to become WWE's next breakout tag, it's fine for Sami to meddle in family affairs just to be a sneaky d*ck.
