The most deserving Superstar for the job
Aleister Black had to be on the top of this list as unlike others, he needs no change in his character in order to be considered as the ideal replacement of The Undertaker in WWE. From the mystery surrounding his character to his in-ring maneuvers, everything is fascinating about the ‘Master of Dark Arts’.

Although Black has rarely been involved in good storylines since his move to the main roster, his time in NXT is enough proof of his potential to rise as an unbeatable Superstar. The intensity of his character has a similar essence as that of The Deadman, especially because he does a great job in humanizing a mystique persona.
Sure, it will take him some time to reach the pinnacle of the sport but the creatives can rush the process for a Superstar as deserving as Black. In fact, he is someone who should retire The Undertaker at next year’s WrestleMania. That will allow the living legend to trust a worthy opponent to bring his legacy to a respectful end and create one of his own.
