Mustafa Ali had a lot of potential after his main roster debut in 2019. Unfortunately, he was mostly wasted on the main roster due to being stuck in uninteresting storylines. His current booking in WWE has also ensured he has a lot of detractors. He is set for a major match at Night Of Champions and it appears Ali hit back at a fan who accused him of playing the race card in Saudi Arabia.

Since his debut, Ali has impressed fans and WWE management, so much so that he was due for a big push a few years ago, which got derailed due to injury. When Ali returned, he was made the leader of Retribution, which nearly destroyed his reputation.

In fact, Mustafa Ali’s state in WWE led to quite a few fans turning on him once again in a big way. This is largely due to the fact that Ali has been directionless for a very long time. That said, things are better for him now as he will challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship at WWE Night Of Champions.

A fan took to Twitter and commented on video of Mustafa Ali getting tons of cheers during the Night of Champions press conference. The fan then accused Mustafa Ali of playing the race card.

Mustafa Ali saw what the fan had to say and didn’t take too kindly to it, as he hit back at the fan for making such an accusation.

I’m from America. I have a Pakistani and Indian background. I assume you’re referring to me being a Muslim performing in a Muslim country. Cool, just make sure you say the same thing anytime a Christian wrestler performs on a PLE.

We will have to wait and see whether Mustafa Ali will be able to defeat Gunther and become the new Intercontinental Champion. After all, Ali is more determined than ever to win the title.
