Sami Zayn is more technically proficient than half the locker room at the moment. And yet, unfortunately, he finds himself relegated to a managerial role, as the mouthpiece for Shinsuke Nakamura.
And when he does physically get involved, it is to take a beating at the hands of Matt Riddle and Keith Lee. But then again, this is better than being asked to set in the background and do nothing I suppose, like Keith Lee.

It's just the fact that Sami Zayn can do anything that is asked of him, from putting on a great match to a comedy skit, that has landed him in such a situation. Sometimes being a versatile performer has its share of demerits as well, I do suppose.
Let's hope for the best because he's an exemplary performer in every sense.
