5 things RAW got right on the episode after the Royal Rumble (January 27, 2020)

#4 A vengeful Aleister Black

Buddy Murphy will need to install extra locks on his door

After disappointing fans during the 2020 Royal Rumble, Aleister Black appeared on Monday Night RAW. Buddy Murphy played an instrumental role outside the ring during the Rumble, which led to Black’s elimination. Black then helped Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens fight Murphy and the AOP out of the arena, leaving Seth Rollins helpless inside the match.

Aleister Black fought another unwilling victim who faded to black in mere seconds after receiving a Black Mass. He then took the microphone and decided that it was time to come out of his comfort zone.

For months, we’d watch Black asking his next challenger to come knocking on his door, but this week he made it clear that he was going after The Best Kept Secret himself.

Black vowed revenge on Murphy, and this could give us some of the best quality storylines and segments in the coming weeks.

It’s possible that WWE is holding Black back from joining Owens and Joe’s team since he doesn’t travel to Saudi Arabia and they may be planning a match between the two factions there.

However, WWE seems to have started the process which will lead to Black becoming a part of the rivalry, and ultimately squaring off against Seth Rollins somewhere down the line.
