I do think that losing to Jinder two PPVs in a row hurt Nak's momentum, but he still seems to be pretty over with the crowd and definitely has that big star aura about him. Is it really the sort of thing where he can't bounce back with one good feud?
He feels cold to a lot of people who are more familiar with his work before. I agree that something just hasn't fully clicked but other than the ridiculous Jinder push and his losses there he wins almost all the time and he's treated as a top star on the show for the most part. Up there with Orton/Owens/Zayn/Styles.
I don't think it would take much to heat him up for a Styles match. I think they'd have a good match, maybe even great but WWE micromanages their matches so much it takes a lot to get a classic.
