Mustafa Ali was once set to be given a big push that was derailed due to an injury. Ever since then, he has undergone quite a few changes to his character. From being the leader of Retribution to his current gimmick, he still hasn’t been able to get over with the fans.
It seems like WWE has changed up his look again during a live show as he appeared wearing short trunks for the match. During the show, he teamed up with Matt Riddle to defeat The Alpha Academy.
Over the past few weeks, it seems like WWE is gearing up to push Mustafa Ali again. It started when he was set to face then United States Champion Bobby Lashley in a title bout. Although, he lost the match, he seemed to gain the respect of Bobby Lashley and the crowd.
However, after the match was over, Seth Rollins attacked both Bobby Lashley and Mustafa Ali. And now with Seth Rollins as new United States Champion, it shouldn’t be long before these two superstars clash in the ring. However, we will have to wait and watch whether this new change in appearance will lead to Mustafa Ali getting a push on WWE TV.
