#2 Kevin Owens set to host Aleister Black on WWE RAW
Last night at SummerSlam, Kevin Owens extended an invitation to RAW Superstar Aleister Black. Owens wanted Black to come for an interview at the KO Show. Black last appeared on RAW during a brawl between Seth Rollins (aided by his disciple Murphy) and Rey Mysterio. That segment saw Murphy attack Owens by pressing his eye against the edge of the steel steps, the same move that Rollins used to brutalize Rey Mysterio.
This attack saw Murphy, who was initially hesitant, following the command of the Monday Night Messiah. If Black accepts Owens’ invitation to return on RAW for the interview, we can certainly expect him to address those events. Given that Aleister Black has mostly been involved in the feud between Rey Mysterio and Seth Rollins, it will be interesting to see if tonight he will find a new rivalry of his own.
It’s been a few weeks since we saw Aleister Black on RAW, and during his time away from the red brand, he teased a possible change in his gimmick. It appears that he could be hinting towards adopting a more intense side of himself. Moreover, it is also possible that WWE will book a feud between him and Kevin Owens. Black is an extremely talented wrestler, but he is equally underutilized. All he needs is a few good feuds that will help establish him as a strong contender for singles titles on RAW.
