Aleister Black is back with a vengeance and has scored a win in his first WWE match since 2020.
Aleister Black officially returned to WWE on the April 25 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown, but he had his first match back with the company on May 2. His first match saw him defeat former WWE Champion The Miz. He knocked out Miz with Black Mass as Carmelo Hayes watched on. His last match in WWE was in October 2020, when he lost a No Disqualification Match to Kevin Owens on the October 12 Monday Night Raw.
Post-match, he would have a stare-down with Hayes.
