WWE Superstar Buddy Murphy had a few good matches on SmackDown before being drafted to RAW, and Aleister Black hasn't had a solid storyline despite his great in-ring and mic skills. These two performers can sell any storyline and provide fans the required entertainment, but despite that, WWE Creative hasn't given them a chance to showcase their skills.

It all changed last week when Murphy decided to take a shot at Black and his gimmick of asking people to pick a fight with him. These two experienced professionals have great chemistry between the ropes, and it seems like the company is now focused on utilizing the sheer talent of these two performers to provide its fan base with great entertainment.

In this article, we list the reasons why this feud will be a great storyline on RAW. Please share your opinions in the comments section below.


#3 It elevates their careers and characters

These two talented Superstars have been involved in basic matches or none at all recently. The fact that they were not a part of the Survivor Series team shows they weren't considered worthy by WWE Creative.

They have been fighting enhancement talents, and while Black has been asking fellow wrestlers to pick a fight with him, Murphy hasn't done that.

With these performers getting some screen time, their segments will be great, and fans will get value for money. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing these two Superstars get what they deserve, and that's quality mic time and in-ring performances.


#2 They could evolve into a tag-team

Many fans may not think this is possible, but if history is anything to go by, we know that this can happen. We saw Cesaro and Sheamus team up to form The Bar, and Ricochet was Aleister Black's former tag-team partner.

If this is anything to go by, one can be sure that these two arch-rivals can join hands and become a tag team that will not only help the division but could also see them win the coveted titles in the process.

Aleister is an expert in the ring, and Buddy Murphy showcased his in-ring prowess after his main roster debut on SmackDown. The Best Kept Secret is a powerhouse, while The Harbinger of Fury is one of those performers that can put his opponents down in a few moments. They would be great together as a team.

#1 It makes up for some poor matchups

We have seen Viking Raiders fight local talents as does Erick Rowan, but while these performers fight local wrestlers, it is a good idea that the company does not make a huge chunk of its three-hour program a show between established wrestlers and enhancement talents.

This is why a fight between these two gifted wrestlers will serve the WWE Universe's zest to watch something worthwhile, and considering their prowess, one can be sure that they would leave no stone unturned to create something compelling for the WWE Universe.

A match between them will be better than seeing the RAW Tag-Team Champions, and a great performer like Rowan fights local talents that add no value to their characters and championship reigns.

While these two can put on great matches, we would have to see how this storyline builds up in the weeks that follow, and if the company gives these talented wrestlers quality screen time, we are in for an amazing experience.
