And I can't help but think that Zayn could have made more money (and I'm sure he did well for himself) had he cut a promo. On one hand, I understand why he didn't. But at the same time, he rode the Generico train as far as it was going to go and as a good talker with a good look and a great bumper, he probably could have done more without the mask.
Sami Zayn really hasn't had much of a learning curve when it comes to using his face and voice in NXT. Could he have had more gravitas on the independent scene without the mask? Sure. But we might also have gotten spoiled and used to a certain quality from Zayn and become quite expectant.

I'm honestly not sure what Steen used to look like in ROH. He still looks like an "indy guy" to me. Did he look much different?
