Aleister Black hasn't had a perfect win streak intact the way he did in NXT (until he lost the NXT Championship), but we can't complain about the way he's been booked. He's benefited big being on Monday Night RAW - with Black fitting into Paul Heyman's vision of a top superstar.

It seems clear that he's being built as one of the future stars of RAW and if WWE gets behind him, he can be a huge name on the roster. Since it's WrestleMania, he needs to add a big name to his résumé and Bobby Lashley fits the bill.

While we would understand the decision of Lashley going over, the reality is that Black should be winning the match - albeit, they should get time to put on a competitive contest. A win over Lashley would perfectly set Black up for another major rivalry and a big step up the card. It's been over a year since he debuted and he should be doing so much more.
