10 Things we learned from Aleister Black's Twitch stream following his WWE release

#9 Vince McMahon was pretty high on Aleister Black

Vince McMahon

One tone of the stream throughout its entirety was Aleister Black not being upset with WWE or Vince McMahon. Black said that Vince was quite high on him but just couldn't nail down exactly what he wanted to do with the character.

Aleister says he had a good relationship with Vince. Vince praised him for his creativity, manners, and respect, and was told Vince was actually behind him. It’s just that they could never nail down the Aleister Black character. Paul Heyman was also very protective of him. pic.twitter.com/tCbNrpclvK

Black also said that he felt Vince respected him because he would always voice his opinions but never do it in a disrespectful way. The Dutch Destroyer also kept using the word "intriguing", saying that many people within WWE kept using that word to describe him.

#10 Aleister Black said Paul Heyman "fought tooth and nail" for him

Paul Heyman

When Paul Heyman was Head of Creative for RAW, it was evident that he was trying to push the stars he felt deserved it. Guys like Aleister Black, Andrade, and Buddy Murphy got a huge push on the Red brand as a result. So it's no surprise that guys like Paul Heyman would go to bat for Aleister Black.

Aleister Black on Twitch reacting to his release says he’s thankful to Vince McMahon, Triple H, Bruce Prichard, Paul Heyman and others in WWE for the opportunities they gave him. Also says Roman is a great locker room leader.

While he didn't give any specifics, he also said that Bruce Prichard went to bat for him, even though Bruce doesn't know that Aleister knows. According to Black, the word around the company was that many felt like nobody moved like him in the ring, and no one was as intense as him.
