Malakai Black, aka Tommy End, is in AEW! Rumors of Aleister Black's impending AEW debut have indeed turned out to be accurate as the former WWE superstar made his first appearance on AEW Dynamite: Road Rager.

It all began with Arn Anderson and Tony Schiavone standing in the ring for an interview. A blackout ensued, and Aleister Black was in the middle of the squared circle once the lights were back on.

The former NXT Champion attacked Arn Anderson with the Black Mass, which prompted Cody Rhodes to rush to the ring. Malakai Black had a brief stand-off with The American Nightmare before decking him with another Black Mass.

The Miami crowd absolutely loved the segment, which was evident by the loud chants echoing in the arena as Malakai Black slowly retreated to the back.

Zelina Vega's recent WWE return had raised doubts over Aleister Black's status as reports stated people within WWE were pushing for the Dutch star to be re-signed.

As reported by Fightful Select heading into Road Rager, AEW talent was already speculating about Malakai Black's AEW debut, and thankfully for all of us, Tony Khan and his team have pulled off another exciting hire.
