The Undertaker Told Malakai Black To Not Let His Opponents Treat Him Like A Regular Guy

Malakai Black was released by WWE last year and it was something no one saw coming. Fans simply wanted Black to have a solid run on the WWE main roster, but that never happened. The Undertaker also gave Malakai Black some good advice along the way.

Malakai eventually debuted in AEW and destroyed Cody Rhodes in his first feud. During his time in WWE, Black gained prominence thanks to his supernatural character in NXT.

While speaking on the Universal Wrestling Podcast, Malakai Black revealed that The Undertaker had advised him to not let his opponents treat him like a regular guy.

“Taker used to come up to me and say, ‘Just make sure that whenever you wrestle people, that people cannot be normal with who you are’ and even now in this installment, people can’t look at what I do and just go, ‘Regular guy’ because you’re not a regular guy’.

He’s like, ‘Characters like ours need to be sold by the individual.’ He always mentioned Shawn (Michaels) being so good at it because Shawn would mock him but then all of a sudden, Taker would go in his face and (it’d) be like, uh oh. There would always been an ‘uh oh’ moment and that would sell the character.

Black is currently part of The House Of Black alongside Brody King and Buddy Matthews and they are feuding with Death Triangle. We’ll have to see how their feud develops in the coming weeks.
