Back and forth? The rise of AEW has changed the way the wrestling world works. There is suddenly a brand new company that has risen up to give wrestlers another top level place to go. That is something you only see happen once every several years and it is great to have it happening again. A lot of wrestlers have jumped over to AEW, but now one might be interested in going the other way.

Over the last few weeks, AEW’s Malakai Black’s status with the company has changed. He has recently received a conditional release from the company, leaving the four and a half years he had on his contract. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Black wanted to return to WWE, but it is not clear how things will go due to his contract. However, it was noted that it was difficult to keep someone in a deal they do not want for four and a half years.

Opinion: I’m really not sure what is going on here but it should be interesting to see where it goes. Maybe Black does want to return to WWE and this is the best thing he can do, but contracts can be a powerful thing. It is true that it is difficult to keep Black in a deal he does not want for that long, but at the same time, I can’t imagine he will be back in WWE anytime soon.

What do you think of the situation? Will Black return to WWE? Let us know in the comments below.
