Aleister Black

When the time comes that a wrestler loses a championship, the loss should help mold the winner as someone worthy of holding that championship. That is what Aleister Black can achieve in a feud with Mysterio.

Black has been treading water ever since WrestleMania 35. The silver lining to that is he is still a wrestler who you can’t miss when he comes on the screen.

Black has been able to avoid losing fan interest and it shows in his current feud with Buddy Murphy. This feud is already proving to preserve both men’s careers, but eventually, this feud will end. When it’s over, Black will need to be in a new feud to carry the momentum gained from his rivalry with Murphy.

This is where a match at the Royal Rumble against Mysterio is pivotal for Black’s character growth. It does not have to be a match designed around a hero and a villain. It can be a series of matches between a young wrestler who has championship aspirations and an older wrestler who is going to teach the youngster some respect.

Mysterio knows how to elevate the career of whoever he is in the ring with. A feud that ends with both men shaking hands and Aleister Black as the new US Champion is the right way for Mysterio to give back to wrestling.
