At this point in time, a feud between The Fiend and Aleister Black is something that would feel incredibly forced and out of the blue. Remember when AJ Styles made his way to Monday Night Raw during this year's Superstar Shakeup and fans clamored for a dream match between The Phenomenal One and Seth Rollins? WWE didn't wait too long before giving us the feud and it ended soon after Rollins defeated Styles at Money In The Bank.

It hasn't been long since The Fiend first appeared on TV. There's no need for a hurry in regards to this feud. This is a rivalry that the WWE Universe has been clamoring for a long while now, and needs to be built organically, and in due time.

#3 No one can afford to lose the feud at this point

Black simply can't lose to The Fiend so soon

Let's say WWE goes the Styles-Rollins route with this feud, and gives us this dream encounter without waiting for a while. What will be the end result? Who will take the loss? Both The Fiend and Aleister Black are at a point in their careers where a loss for either of them, against each other, wouldn't help matters for them going forward.

Black has been building momentum on the blue brand and is steadily finding his footing as a mysterious, dark character. A feud against The Fiend will likely result in a big loss for him, as there's no way The Fiend will lose to Black, after months of buildup the character got. Neither Black, nor The Fiend can afford to lose this feud. A few months down the line? That would be a completely different story, where Black taking a loss wouldn't upset the fans as much as it would do now.
