Humberto Carrillo won the 20-man Battle Royal on the kick-off show of Crown Jewel to become the number one contender for AJ Styles’ US Championship. He put out a great show in Saudi Arabia against the Phenomenal One but ultimately came up short against him.

While WWE could continue pushing Carrillo, there is someone else who is a better candidate to have a feud against AJ Styles for the US Title: Aleister Black. The former NXT Champion was drafted to RAW in the recent WWE Draft but so far, he has mainly been cutting promos from a dark room – something that he had already been doing at SmackDown prior to his move to RAW.

Black is an insanely talented in-ring worker and has a strong gimmick to back it up as well. The Dutch Destroyer has champion written all over him and WWE will have to do something with him sooner rather than later.

As a result, pitting him against AJ Styles for the US Championship would be a great first step towards a long-overdue push.
