Paul Heyman Pitched Feud Between Aleister Black & Brock Lesnar

Aleister Black’s time in NXT was certainly a memorable one, which featured him winning the NXT Championship and competing at the highest level against the likes of Andrade and Johnny Gargano.

Unfortunately for him, his main roster run was the exact opposite and left a lot to be desired. For a very long hiatus from WWE television, Black made his return to WWE television in a series of vignettes that further added to his new mysterious character.

However, fans will never get to know just how good his new character would have been as Black was released by WWE last week. It seems WWE cancelled quite a few interesting plans for Black.

While speaking on Renee Paquette’s Oral Sessions, the former WWE Superstar talked about one of Paul Heyman’s ideas for him, which would have seen Aleister Black feud with 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. I would cut a promo in this room, and Lesnar would come in through the darkness and choke me out and stuff.”

Aleister Black now goes by his old ring name Tommy End and has already been booked for his first appearance since being released by WWE. We will have to see which pro wrestling promotion Black ultimately calls his new home.
