On the latest episode of his show, Arn Anderson hosted a question and answer session for his fans. The entire episode was dedicated to answering questions from fans, and answer them he did.

There was a question on whether or not Sami Zayn would be a good agent in the future. Arn Anderson said no straight off the bat. In addition, he was very clear when it came to supporting his hard stance against Zayn with explanations.

Arn reasons that Sami Zayn and he quarrel a lot. Most of these fights are over small issues that don’t normally need so much attention. Arn adds that the small issues for him are the big ones.

From his words, it appears as if Zayn is a hot-tempered man. Arn says that as an agent one is responsible for a lot of things and must handle a lot of issues.

Consequently, an agent is tasked with taking care of each and every issue their client may face, no matter the gravitas of the same. Moreover, the responsibility of bagging the best deals and opportunities for their client rests on the shoulders of the agent alone.

Many times down the road, Arn adds, the agent loses match time for his client. A six-minute segment gets cut down to three and the agent has to break this news to his client.

Arn Anderson feels Sami Zayn is too headstrong for an agent

Arn explains how an agent has to find it within himself to inform the client that his set has been cut by half. Whenever a wrestler moves from NXT or some other place to the main roster, there are a lot of issues.

Agents have to be on top of these issues and pave the way for their clients’ rise to the top. The agent must also adhere to rules that the boss lays down, whether they are written or not.

An agent has to figure out all the tweaks in the storyline and ensure that his client has a good role in whatever he/she does.

Arn Anderson does not think Zayn has the creativity or patience to do such work. He feels the Zayn may not be creative enough to conjure up a storyline that is different from what people see on a day to day basis.
