Aleister Black
Aleister Black has not redeemed himself since returning from AEW to WWE. He lost his first big feud with Damian Priest in an ambulance match. It was implied that the feud would help elevate him to a title shot, but all it did was put him back where he started when he got released from the WWE. However, Black still has one more shot for a consolation prize, and that would be the U.S. Title.
Black never won a singles title in the WWE, and the U.S. Title would be a good first step. When he had his first U.S. Title match against Ilja Dragunov back in October, Damian Priest cost him the match. Now that Priest is out of his hair, there is a window for him to continue his heel run and answer Hayes’ U.S. Title Open Challenge. Hopefully, the title will be his ticket to regaining momentum.
