Black has stated that he sees Ohno as a valued mentor and the duo have been able to work together numerous times over the years as recently as 2016 when they were teamed together as "Heroes Never Die" and wrestled for a number of promotions both together and against each other including PWG, Progress and Evolve.
One of the best matches that the duo had against each other came in the semi-finals of PROGRESS Wrestling Super Strong Style 16 back in 2016 where Black came out on top over his mentor in what is considered to be one of the best wrestling matches of that year.
