#4 Aleister Black reveals canceled plans for a WWE storyline between him and Brock Lesnar
Last week, Aleister Black was released by WWE along with several other popular names. He has been quite open about his WWE release on social media, citing budget cuts as the reason why he was let go by the company.
During a recent appearance on Renee Paquette's Oral Sessions podcast, Black spoke about a few canceled creative plans for him in WWE. One of Paul Heyman's ideas for him included a feud with Samoa Joe or Brock Lesnar.
"One of Heyman’s ideas was to have Samoa Joe or Brock Lesnar come into the room at the time that would eventually lead to an interaction between me, Brock Lesnar or Samoa Joe," said Aleister Black. "I would cut a promo in this room, and Lesnar would come in through the darkness and choke me out and stuff."
Because they're both currently free agents, Samoa Joe and Aleister Black might cross paths outside of WWE.
By comparison, Aleister Black vs. Brock Lesnar is unlikely to happen anytime soon. Do you think WWE missed a significant opportunity in this case?
