Aleister Black definitely deserves better

Aleister Black, is, hands down, the most deserving candidate to win this year's Money in the Bank contract. He was incredible on NXT, and despite being involved in a handful of feuds on the main roster, Black is extremely over with the fans.

The fact that it took just one match against Black to kickstart the push for Buddy Murphy on RAW speaks volumes about the former NXT Champion’s caliber.

Although Black has reaped almost nothing from his incredible matches on the Red brand, he has lowkey been one of the best performers on the roster. Therefore, things could change for his best at Money in the Bank PPV.

Black was the first one to qualify for the Men’s Money in the Bank 2020 Ladder Match after picking up a victory over Austin Theory. He is expected to bring the right mix of brutality and charm in the upcoming match. If Black manages to win the Money in the Bank contract, WWE can have him wait until the title rests on the shoulder of a heel before he cashes-in.

If not, the creatives can use this opportunity to turn him into a heel – which is something that will spice up his gimmick and bring him the due appreciation he deserves.

Some may argue that Black’s sporadic matches could be the reason why he isn’t fully prepared to carry the top title of the company. But knowing his past title reigns in the company, we can assure that Black will make for an incredible Champion.

His gimmick has the charisma to keep the fans invested in him, and he has excellent in-ring skills coupled with his compelling work on the mic. Maybe, a Money in the Bank contract will just be the thing that he needs to regain his momentum following which, Black will be unstoppable.
