10 WWE Superstars who haven't appeared for more than 30 days - and the reasons why

#4. WWE SmackDown star Aleister Black

Aleister Black is a former NXT Champion and was once seen as a hot prospect on WWE's main roster. Black was sent to SmackDown as part of the annual draft back in October but hasn't been seen on his new brand.

Black's wife Zelina Vega was fired from the company back in November 2020 and Black has been kept off TV since before Vega's departure. Recent updates regarding the former NXT star are that WWE's creative team has nothing for Black at present. One of the main issues is that Vince McMahon doesn't believe in many of the stars that Paul Heyman was pushing over on RAW, which includes Black.

Black isn't the only star that has been forgotten by the company, and at present, there is no update on when or if he will make his return.

#3. WWE star Andrade

Andrade was another hot prospect for WWE, but the former United States Champion opted to undergo elective surgery last year and was then left out of the WWE Draft pool. This means that at present Andrade doesn't have a brand, even though he was last seen on Monday Night RAW.

There were initially rumors that Andrade was set to make his return and align himself with his real-life fiance Charlotte, but this is yet to become a reality. Andrade is another star who was pushed on RAW by Paul Heyman when he was the Executive Director but has since been forgotten by the company.

It's currently unclear if and when Andrade will make his return to WWE TV since recent updates suggest that the creative team has nothing for him.
