Friday Night Satanism.

That's what the blue brand will be if Aleister Black has his way with it in the future. The forgotten workhorse re-emerged on the latest episode to read a little story for your listening and viewing pleasure. His "Tales Of The Dark Father" vignettes will hopefully lead to better things for someone who is long overdue a push, but that remains to be seen.

Black's "new" character (which is eerily similar to his uh...old character) is just one of the hidden delights you might've missed were you only skimming through SmackDown. The man's promises to enchant and save were joined by things like Cesaro doing some sneaky self-promotion, Daniel Bryan taking a big ol' dig at Roman Reigns and Michael Cole totally ignoring WrestleMania history to make this year's event look better.

Other gems included WWE's camera operators potentially falling asleep mid-episode, Commander Azeez showing he needs to go for an eye test, Bianca Belair seemingly GPS tracking her husband and Otis giving Dominik Mysterio his "load".

That last one isn't nearly as horrible as it sounds, honest...
