Black made his debut with AEW on July 7, 2021, when he made his debut by attacking Arn Anderson and Cody Rhodes. Since then, he has formed a stable, “The House of Black”, with Brody King and Buddy Matthews.
The House of Black is scheduled to face Miro, Sting and Darby Allin at the upcoming All Out pay-per-view.
We will continue to monitor this story and provide updates as they are made available.
Editor’s Opinion:
Can you blame the guy for wanting his release? He has been misused in inconsistent storylines for the better part of a year, after coming in with such high momentum and an incredible presence. Of course, this is just a rumor and is purely speculation at this time, so we will see what happens. But for his sake, I hope it’s true. And I hope that WWE would be willing to give him another chance, because I think he could thrive there.
