A quick look at Aleister Black’s WWE career

Aleister Black signed with WWE in 2016, making his debut against Neville (a.k.a PAC) in a special match at the NXT UK Championship finals. He made his NXT debut soon after and quickly rose up the card after racking up a number of wins. Black eventually defeated Andrade at NXT TakeOver: New Orleans to win the NXT Championship.

In February 2019, Aleister Black made his main roster debut on WWE RAW. Despite a great start to life on the main roster, Black was ultimately lost in the shuffle after Paul Heyman was let go from his position on RAW. A move to SmackDown in the 2020 WWE Draft looked promising but didn’t end up leading to much either.
