Zayn has never held a main roster world title in WWE.
Sami Zayn is re-surging as a singles star. The fan-favorite defeated Gunther to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship this past April at WWE WrestleMania 40, ending the Ring General's record-shattering 666-day reign. Since then, Zayn has been put in the brightest singles spotlight of his career, headlining episodes of WWE Monday Night Raw and receiving cinematic-style entrances in the process.
Sami Zayn Details Triple H's Vision For His CharacterToday, those glass ceilings are significantly less bulletproof. When asked how he thinks his world championship chances fair under WWE's Triple H regime compared to the Vince McMahon era, WWE Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn laid out his perspective.
"Here's how I see it: I think Vince saw me much more as a bad guy, for a number of reasons. He saw my irksome qualities, which he thought lent itself to being an irksome character," Zayn told Daily Mail.
Based on his booking over the past two years, Zayn does appear to be a key figure of Triple H's longer-term vision. Zayn's alliance with The Bloodline, a move that catapulted him from midcard comedy act to bonafide main-event competitor, went into effect right around the time that Triple H assumed much of his creative power. Prior to Triple H taking over, there were rumors that Zayn working with The Bloodline was only going to be for a couple of weeks.
