After completing your contract with AEW, Aleister Black returned to WWE after Wrestlemania 41 and has been very active in SmackDown Having rivalries with The Miz, Carmelo Hayes, the Knight, and recently Damian Priest. However, it has not had a greater presence in the company's premium events, although at the time it had been said that it could receive a great impulse.
► Aleister Black wanted to boost Brody King in AEW
During his time at AEW, Black led The House of Black, a group formed by him (under the name of Malakai Black), Buddy Matthews, Brody King and Julia Hart. In some of their most outstanding men, Black and Matthews admitted to having been in the background To give King greater prominence, the least known of the three for not having a past on WWE. However, doing so generated a different image after scholarships because it was said that SmackDown's star refused to receive back touches, a situation that the fighter himself denied during a recent interview in The Masked Man Show.
«We let King take the reins so that he could advance morebut it becomes something that people desperately crave. One of the things that were said was: “Oh, he never wanted to be in AEW.” That is completely false. I had a great time and had a lot of fun. Did I do everything I wanted? No, but it doesn't matter, because in the end, it's not my company. I have no voice or vote. “
«The same thing happens with the statement that 'I did not want to surrender to the people'. If you really think I have so much influence on a company to say who I'm not going to face or who will not give up, do you think I am not going to defend or participate in the main events? Do you think I'm going to do politics on the grounds that 'I will not give up before this person'? It doesn't even make sense. “
The last Black fight in AEW was at AEW Full Gear in November last year, where he and King lost a four -band fight for AEW couples championships.
