Former Cruiserweight Champion Believes Sami Zayn Is The Top Performing Talent In The Wrestling Industry At This Time

Shane Helms has high praise for the honorary uce.

Shane Helms made a bold statement on the latest episode of WWE’s After The Bell podcast, going as far as to call Zayn the top performer in the entire industry.

“Sami [Zayn] is right now, and I have no problem saying this, Sami is the top performer in this entire industry. That’s how good Sami is. It’s daunting sometimes, Sami has a reputation you know. He’ll drive you bananas, but the end result is always a home run or grand slam. [His WrestleMania match with Johnny Knoxville] was definitely a grand slam. He was the perfect guy for that. His personality and Johnny’s, they were so [compatible] to each other, using all the members of all the Jackass crew and all of the gadgets. It all came together like so crazy and just a lot of creativity from everybody involved. It was just a massive team effort.”
