Hardest of the round so far bc these are very hard careers to compare. I went with Sami but if any woman is going on it should probably be Gail bc what she was able to do in TNA after WWE buried her (twice) was outstanding.

But Zayn has been part of two all time angles for me that might very well stay top 5 for me for all time (vs Steen in ROH and Bloodline) and a catalogue of matches rivaled by few all over the world

Yeah him and Owens got put on the Observer ballot this year, I doubt either go in first year but when I saw that I had the realization that Sami is certainly a HOFer, more so than Kevin even tho their careers mirrored each other and Kevin was even the A guy of the pairing for awhile

I went with Sami but Gail doesn't deserve this matchup. She'd advance against a bunch of other people.

Yeah. I actually considered Gail here. When we do the womens one like this she will go far I’m sure. But I had to go Sami.

Gail is totally a case being booked to perfection in one company and then racist Vince didn't know how to book her and thus so many people don't know how great she it unless they watched TNA.

Zayn it is for me, but big, big kudos to both really. Despite WWE shitting on both of them (obviously Gail hit it way worse at the end of the day, but let's not forget that Sami pretty much got to the point he is right now not because of the WWE, but rather despite of Vince being a cunt and not believing in Sami as an actual star), they both build a legacy of their own and rightfully belong in all the Top lists of this Century.
