After his return on Friday Night SmackDown, Aleister Black is wasting no time on getting back into the thick of things.
The mysterious superstar returned to WWE, complete with his NXT entrance and music, and without saying a word, he said all he needed to say with a kick to The Miz's head.
After that statement was made, it was announced that next week Aleister Black will face The Miz in the former's first match in WWE since 2021.
