8 WWE Stars Who Should Turn Heel

I like Sami Zayn. You like Sami Zayn. We all like Sami Zayn. And why wouldn't we? Zayn's a legend in the industry, wrestling at the top of his game around the world for years before appearing in the WWE. But just because you like him, it doesn't mean he should never turn heel. And maybe it's time for Zayn to finally turn to do the dark side of the ska.

There's always been comparisons of Zayn to the other perennial underdog-done-good, Daniel Bryan. WWE have certainly positioned Zayn into that kind of role, with feuds with monster heels like Braun Strowman and Samoa Joe. And like Bryan, there's also that spark of anger and frustration in Zayn's eyes - that sense he'll never get the big push to the top of the card, no matter how good he is.

WWE should use this as a reason to turn Zayn heel. Ditch the nice guy persona and have him embrace the hate (no Kane, you stay away from this angle. Stay. STAY. Good demon boy). Who knows, a decent heel run could finally catapult him to his long deserved main-event level status.
