Yes, he was lol end of story
But nah seriously he spoke some truths and obviously embellished some as the heel but I liked it
@kn was right in the fact that he needs to team up with DB and Rowan

He lost a lot of points doing goofy voices from a bad MadTV sketch or something.

Bryan needs another follower, to set up some fun matches with New Day. And Sami as Bryan's obnoxious acolyte would be a lot of fun.
Not as much fun as babyface Sami Zayn actually being taken seriously, but I guess we can't ask for miracles.

100%. Zayn really felt that way too. Hell, some of his Twitter comments were similar except here it was turned up. We'll see how he is these next few weeks but I'm glad he spoke his mind because the entire time he was out there tonight it felt like he had a lot to say.
Now that Zayn/Bryan/Rowan team-up that we're definitely going to get? That'll be the stuff of legends. Bryan and Zayn are always interacting on Twitter and share similar viewpoints, it's probably something they've been working on. I'm ready for it.

He wasn't wrong tho like in all honesty people flipped the switch odee fast on the main event
Vince gave up Rollins, Kofi and Becky to be champs but because you got a unification match you never were going to get a finish to, it's f*** Vince again lol
I don't get it lol but I need that team up in my life asap them dudes can do good work

I want Kevin and Sami as Tag champs. I’m gonna say no to a DB/Rowan trio. I’d rather Harper instead.

I'd like to think I and others would be a little less critical if the WWE themselves hadn't spent the last decade and a half trying to convince us "You don't like what you think you like, you like what we tell you you like!"
Other than that... well, I knew right from the start he was going to still be heel, so might as well heel it up, Sami.

I mean, judging by the fact that the promo was so laughably awful that the whole crowd disregarded everything he said and kept cheering him whilst he was doing the voice you do when you're telling your dog he's been a good doggy
Kinda?

Yeah the Bryan thing makes a lot of sense with how much they were pushing him traveling the world and becoming more enlightened. Plus Bryan needs someone to be annoying with since he and Rowan cannot agree on which sub-genre of death metal is the most eco-friendly.

I didn’t like it for a bunch of reasons:
1) I hate those meta pseudo shoots promos
2) the content was the same as things that Vince, HHH, Stephanie, or whoever have said in interviews and they were shredded for it, but since Sami’s the heel and said it on a wrestling show it’s quality? It’s wack as f*** no matter who says it.
3)the whole fans as critics thing is ridiculous because there are armchair Quarterbacks for every sport and those other sports don’t constantly feel the need to take shots at their fans because of it.
4) as Wrestlemania proved if the WWE gives us a good story the fans don’t shit all over it.

Yeah they'll put out some great material. If we don't get it I'd be surprised, heavily surprised.

Come on, we all know it’s Latvian Melted Aluminium Death Metal.

I didn’t like it. But I want a partnership with Bryan, followed by Sami turning face on him. Z

It’s basically Vince attacking his own fans for saying he produces a shit show. Hilarious when you think about it. How about working on actually pleasing your fans instead of arguing back at them?

Why get mad at the fans? Why not get mad at the people who thought that horrendous Lashley feud was a good idea? Why not get mad at the people who booked him into oblivion in the first place?

No, but he thinks he is which is great from a heel point-of-view. He better get some variety to it, or he's just going to be an on repeat nonsense promo guy.

That's definitely not the reason they turned on it. Most of the crowd has been to an insane amount of wrestling 4 nights in a row, and they give them a team that loses all the time interrupting rather than an impactful surprise on what is supposed to be the most important Raw of the year. And also, the crowd badly wants Sami as a face, he's basically the most natural face in the company (besides maybe Kofi), so of course they make him another "YOU PEOPLE!" heel.

I mean I get it but like I said i'm mostly talking on those saying f*** Vince for a nothing tag match in comparision to the results last night. F*** Vince imo is if Kofi lost tonight like a chump but he stood toe to toe with Rollins and they both celebrated at the end. Nothing of value was lost but that's just only my side of the opinion
Also in regards to Sami, he left as a heel and usual protocol is to return as a face affter injury but this is one of those things where i'm willing to see where it goes. Now if it is the Jeff Jarrett i'm going to shoot every week gimmick then it is ass but we shall see

I feel like the fans and the WWE need some sort of roundtable discussion where we can talk about our feelings and work out our differences so when wrestlers we like turn heel it's not taken as a personal shot at us.
I'm joking but like, sometimes wrestling is fun when you just play along, a wrestler calls fans shitheads, fans call him an asshole, I didn't think Sami's heel turn is something that can't be given a shot. I kind of like the storyline that he came in with a positive attitude and an open challenge, got embarrassed and lost his composure.
