“I do not get his gimmick at all” - Former WWE manager calls Aleister Black a lost cause (Exclusive)

WWE Superstar Aleister Black recently returned to the company on the SmackDown after WrestleMania. He returned with his trademark eerie gimmick that he portrayed during his first run with the company and later in AEW. He immediately got involved in a program with The Miz and Carmelo Hayes.

The 39-year-old has taken out The A-Lister every week on the blue brand since his return before facing off against Hayes in the latest episode of SmackDown for the second week in a row. He gained the upper hand in his bout against Carmelo and just when it looked like he was heading for the win, The Miz attacked him from behind, causing a disqualification.

Aleister Black's return to the company was criticized by former WWE manager Dutch Mantell. The former leader of the Real Americans questioned Black's character on the BroDown podcast on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge.

​

"This is his second trip to WWE, right? I think he's, he's already a lost cause, to tell you the truth. I just do. I didn't like him in AEW. I don't know the guy, but I'm saying, but his in ring deal, I don't get it. I do not get his gimmick at all, unless it appeals to the kids,'' Mantell said [From 16:50 onwards]

The former leader of the House of Black had a tough outing this week after being outnumbered by Carmelo Hayes and The Miz. While Aleister Black managed to take out The A-Lister, Hayes took advantage of that distraction and took him out.

It'll be interesting to see how the former NXT Champion plans to even the odds next week.
