Sami Zayn made his long-awaited return Monday on Raw and wasted little time issuing a challenge to anyone who wanted a match with him. He was back in the same spirit he left in, and a botched entrance did not affect the impact of his return.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

His challenge was answered by none-other-than Finn Balor, who brought his Intercontinental Championship along for the match. This resulted in fans getting a dream match right in the middle of the night after WrestleMania.

While the match was really good, it did not make much sense to hand Zayn a defeat on his much-awaited return. Yes, WWE wants to build him as a major heel, but a win against someone like Apollo Crews, No Way Jose, or someone similar could have done an equally good job.

Zayn is out there to get some heat, and a loss to kick it off may seem like a good idea at first, but dents his chance to challenge for the Intercontinental Championship whenever he plans to do so next.
