He had a tag match with Kane against Xpac and Triple H which he lost but that was it.
He would try to attack HHH outside of matches but DX would jump him so he would focus on them but generally ended up losing each match against them. Shortly after he formed T&A. |

Because Vince is in charge of every little thing now. If you don't follow the script, you risk losing your job.

Seems the future of Lucha Underground could be decided as early as the end of October. Last update from the Observer in regards to finances and a 4th season doesn't look good.
Main issue is the group who funded both Season 2 and 3 pulled out and no replacement has stepped in for the funding LU needs to continue. Another issue is contracts since some talent have already been able to get out of its strict terms and others hinted they want out the moment this season ends. Going to be a real shame if they do end up shutting down since they were very entertaining as a promotion. |

I've just completed this survey that WWE sent me yesterday.
They put forward some interesting ideas. |

Is Alistair Black any good? I find myself so uninterested in the whole super-serious disciplined warrior nonsense. It's been done by CM Punk, it was kinda done by Seth Rollins. They all look the same, they all have the same styles, I just find myself not interested in it at all.
Plus, unless you're actually a gimmicky character (so a competitive martial artists type doesn't count), kicking something out of someones hand and then sitting down cross-legged with a super serious look on your face just seems daft to me. Kinda has me |

I has these weird feelings about his initial presentation. He got this big superstar entrance, which is good, but I liked that things were treated with parity in NXT, and he broke that. I think he wrestles too "normal" for a guy who is given that kind of vibe. I dunno, maybe he will develop. The foundations seem there, but he does carry that indy stinky a bit.

I remember when he debuted they did this thing where he stepped outside and when they interviewer walked out to catch him, he had vanished. Seemed like they were going for a "supernatural" thing with him but I haven't seen anything like that since.

The less Black talks the better, I don't know how good he is cutting promos, nor do I care, but hold off any extended promos for as long as possible.... His mystique and style will sell more than him talking ever could (see: Shinsuke Nakamura)

Ye stay away from the promos in case he sounds like Goldmember from Austin Powers.
In all seriousness I've enjoyed his matches so far , he comes across as a legit tough guy, I think at first they were toying with a Black Magic gimmick and was alluded to with his ring wear and on commentary etc . Also I am a fan of his theme music . I do think he would struggle on the main roster to be a tough guy as he isn't Braun size etc and also they would need to do some major character development to sell him the the audience. At the moment his thing is he can kick hard aka Shinsuke. For those in the know how was his work as Tommy End in the indies ? |

His occult/Satanism stuff mostly just enhances his presentation rather than being a real focus of his character like with Bray Wyatt. Think Black mentioned in interviews about only wanting it to help enhance his character's mystic than actually come off as a Satanist. Can see the main roster writers competently screw up his character and make him into another Bray-like character when he gets called up. |

He's got a solid body of work, but I never thought he was mind blowing or anything. What I always love when a dude is signed by WWE is that the smaller promotions release YouTube free videos so here's a few. He had an awesome match with Hero at PWG, but PWG are just big enough to not have to give their shit away for free...

Honestly, the Daniel Bryan match is a tough watch if you're not into that fake shoot style that Germany seems to have loved in more recent times, but if you have prior knowledge, it's a good match.

I like it.
I don't know about the "Sakura from Street Fighter" sounding "YA!" but the theme is good anyway. Personally, I quite like Aiden English's theme. Now I would say "if only they gave him an entrance to show off his new theme" but as the theme is only really 1:17 long and it doesn't try at all to hide the fact that it loops, I can see why they have him just appear in the ring with his spotlight and sing. Doing that alone works for him, so it's all good. Benjamin & Gable's theme has also been uploaded with English's and Emma's themes but it's really shit and there's no need for it to be nearly five minutes long when it reality, it's only a forty second instrumental that's been looped about fifty times, so I'm not posting it. |

The thumbnail for Aiden English's theme looks like he's just smugly flipping you off.
