Black, however, was active on social media during his on-screen hiatus, and he most recently commented on a vintage Rey Mysterio photo.
The Wrestling Classic’s Justin Dhillon posted a picture on Instagram of a prodigal 14-year-old Rey Mysterio holding his mask. Meanwhile, Aleister Black would react to the post with a very thoughtful message in which he had nothing but adoration for the Master of the 619.
Aleister Black recapped Rey Mysterio’s iconic career in a few sentences and even name-dropped the likes of Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, Brock Lesnar, Kurt Angle, Tajiri, and Juventud “Juvi” Guerrera.
Here’s what Aleister Black wrote:
Aleister Black is back!
As noted above, Aleister Black returned to WWE TV on the most recent episode of SmackDown, and the former NXT Champion seems ready to start a new chapter in the company.
Rey Mysterio and Aleister Black are both on SmackDown and have previously been on the same side of a WWE storyline. Remember the entire eye patch saga? Yeah! However, the prospect of a rivalry between the two superstars now looks brighter than ever.
Aleister Black admires Rey Mysterio a lot, and it doesn’t get any bigger than getting a rub from a legend that inspired your work, right?
What do you think? While we have five potential opponents, who should Aleister Black feud with now that he is back on WWE programming?
