Aiden English may be the most underrated heel not only on the SmackDown roster but also in the entire WWE. At the moment the WWE universe is waiting with bated breath to find out what happened in Milwaukee, and Aiden hasn't given any hint. His mind games hint at an understanding of human psychology that may be better than anyone else's in the company. Before we find out what happened in Milwaukee, let's take a step back and try to understand who Aiden English, real name Matthew Rehwoldt, is. This is what we found out about the enigma known as Aiden English.

In a unique twist, I'll use this section to discuss what I believe happened in Milwaukee. Aiden alluded to an incident that occurred in Milwaukee, and it sent shivers down the spine of Lana. It's definitely something that broke the trust of Rusev otherwise it wouldn't have as much power as it does.

It most likely involves both Lana and Aiden, and that track of thought only leads me to an affair. Aiden said there's a video, but in the PG era where the WWE shies away from mentioning anything that has a sexual connotation, it's most likely a kiss. If it's a kiss, what will be Rusev's reaction?

#5. He is an actor

On his official Twitter account, Aiden refers to himself as WWE Drama King; this may stem for his love of controversy while in the ring or it may come from his love of acting. Aiden is an accomplished actor, and by the time he was 20, he had appeared in more than 20 theatre productions.

The experience that Aiden got in theatre aids him particularly in bringing out the full extent of his character's emotions while in the ring. It also enables him to connect with the audience better since he isn't a stranger to the bright lights.

#4. He went to school with Becky Lynch

Before going into the wrestling industry, Aiden studied at Chicago's Columbia College, and he graduated from the school in 2010. He majored in acting, which has always been his passion, with a heavy emphasis on stage combat.

While at the college he met up with Becky Lynch who was also studying acting. As fate would have it, the two would later become two of SmackDown's biggest names.

#3. He is a member of the Guerrero Family

The Guerrero family is wrestling royalty and being a part of it assures someone of a place in the wrestling world. Aiden is part of the legendary family through marriage as he tied the knot with Shaul Marie Guerrero, Eddie, and Vickie Guerrero's daughter, in 2016.

Shaul is an accomplished wrestler in her own right having won the FCW Diva Championship once as well as being a one-time Queen of FCW. Like her husband, Shaul is a fantastic singer and has sung the American national anthem at past FCW events.

#2. He has never had a personal T-Shirt on the WWE Store before

While Aiden is probably SmackDown's most beloved heel at the moment, things have not always been so rosy. He started out as a jobber and climbed his way up the WWE ranks to where he is today. Aiden is usually involved in tag teams like the Vaudevillains and stables like Rusev Day which have not allowed his individual skills to shine as much. After the much talked about Rusev Day break up, Aiden finally got his personalized T-shirt saying Aiden Day. The fans love the T-shirts so much that they are asking for hats in the design.

Hopefully, this is the beginning of more success for Aiden in the company.

#1. He loves whiskey

Every WWE superstar has a hobby, Xavier Woods has gaming, John Cena has cars, and the WWE Drama King has whiskey, bourbon in particular. Aiden has created a YouTube channel and Twitter account where he shares his love for whiskey with his fans. Aiden even shares some of his favorite magazines such as bourbon+ written by the iconic journalist Fred Minnick. As Aiden's popularity continues to grow, more people will continue to interact with his channels.
