Black's kicks are like sirens that ring in your ears; loud, shocking and completely unpredictable. When he kicks an opponent, you can fully believe that they are done, and that's something that's going to help his AEW career bring him to new heights of success.

Watching a Malakai Black match feels akin to seeing an epic ballet. His ability to fuse showmanship, character and movement into his performances has turned him into one of the most must-see wrestlers on the planet, and a lot of that comes down to his expert and precise kicks.

Seeing him beat his opponents down with calculated strikes clarifies that he knows what he's doing, and it's scarce to see him miss. His finishing move, The Black Mass, seems just as supernatural as him, as in all his hundreds of times performing the move, he seems to hit the target dead-on every single time.

It's not just Black Mass that impresses, as Black uses his incredible striking feet to pick his opponents apart like a spider eating its prey all throughout his bouts. His destruction of Cody Rhodes seems to be only the beginning of his plans in All Elite, and fans cannot wait to see who he'll strike next.
