Aleister Black was drafted to WWE SmackDown in October last year. However, the superstar soon went missing and remained absent from television for seven months. WWE recently confirmed his return via a video package in which Black talked about his childhood and how he is always motivated to end the evil.

The creative also did well in keeping the vignette neutral, which has raised several speculations about whether Black will return as a heel or a babyface. While WWE SmackDown has delivered interesting shows recently, they can undoubtedly use a superstar like Aleister Black to stir things up on the roster. We could see him make an immediate impact on some of the ongoing storylines.

Fans have also speculated that Black could go after Seth Rollins on WWE SmackDown. The latter will also be free for a fresh feud after his match against Cesaro tonight. It would be exciting to see if the creative has added more to Black’s dark and mysterious persona. He is a talented superstar and deserves good opportunities on the Blue brand.
