What the heck happened to Aleister Black?

His NXT run was hard-hitting and excellent, and he came armed with an elaborate, eye-catching entrance when called up to Raw and SmackDown. After initially working a tag with Ricochet, Black went his own way and seemed destined for success. Some were even talking about him as a natural successor to The Undertaker.

More like 'Underfaker'. Aleister has become a lower-card hack to rival Brian Lee in the 90s, and that's actually rather heartbreaking considering his ample skills. Black is far too good to be standing still at this point in his career, and he cannot be happy with WWE's recent treatment of his real-life wife Zelina Vega either.

A departure may well be on the cards for a certain Mr. Black. Why sit around waiting for a deserved opportunity in WWE when another promoter not-named Vincent Kennedy McMahon would appreciate your work more? That's a question Aleister needs to ask himself in 2021.
