Aleister Black is back.
During Friday's WWE SmackDown, a new vignette aired marking the return of Aleister Black.
Black, sans eye patch, sat with his glasses on and a book open to tell a story from The Tales of the Dark Father about The Dragon. He said we was never taught how to defeat the dragon, but instead was taught how to become the dragon. He won't help us and we should be scorched from the earth to make room for more fertile things.
Black also posted to social media following the airing of the vignette.

Let’s cut the weeds, sing our songs and let me tell you a story riddled in sins. You will know me, you will know him. You will dance with me in the abyss. pic.twitter.com/1nNxmvNjk7
