5 thing you didn't know about Aleister Black

Black has been one of the most intense character’s in NXT since his arrival

#3 He didn't report to the WWE performance centre until four months after his reported signing.

Black wasn’t seen on television until vignettes leading up to his debut this past January

When Black made his official in ring debut for WWE this past January, as part of NXT Takeover: San Antonio, fans were mystified by this ominous character that had just joined the roster. Upon his debut, it could be seen that he was something special.

His tall stature and plethora of tattoos were clear to see, but fans soon saw the type of athlete he is in the ring. What should be noted is that the man known at the time as Tommy End signed a contract with WWE just prior to the summer of 2016.

It was remarkable that one of the biggest names in the UK had earned a name for himself and was now being given an opportunity to compete for the biggest promotion in the world. However, it wasn't until mid- October 2016 that he actually reported to the promotion.

He was given time to relocate all his possessions, obtain a work visa and complete all of his previously booked dates, but it was a long wait for those wanting to see someone of End's talents finally appear on WWE television.
