It was rumored that the former NXT Champion Aleister Black had requested to be moved back to NXT but was denied. Dave Meltzer has now noted that Aleister Black will continue to be part of SmackDown for now and that he did not make a very strong request. Although, it is known that the master of the Black Mass does want to go back to the Black-and-Yellow brand. 'There were reports Aleister Black asked to go back to NXT and was turned down. That’s basically true as far as smoke and fire but not exactly true. We were told he didn’t directly ask and get turned down, but he did float the idea around and nobody seemed interested when he did so’' Via Dave Meltzer. Aleister Black has failed to make a mark on the main roster since his arrival. It was believed that Black was one of the Superstars who Paul Heyman wanted to get over when he was in charge of RAW. However, after the departure of Paul Heyman, Black has been languishing in the mid-card. Aleister Black is a former NXT Champion and hopefully, he will not be punished for the statements and the actions of his wife outside WWE. A Reminder that Zelina Vega WWE announced it had released Zelina Vega from her contract, just hours before SmackDown was going on the air with FOX in 2020. Speculation was abuzz all weekend about WWE's reasoning behind the release. Many fans figured it was due to her insistence on being able to continue utilizing her Twitch account. However, the word is now coming out that it was more than that. According to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, WWE informed him that Vega breached her contract in October when she opened up her OnlyFans account. Barrasso was told that WWE owner Vince McMahon, in particular, saw this as a breach of contract, which led to her release.
