Aleister Black on How WWE Has Changed Since His Last Run

In an interview with The Ringer (via Wrestling Inc), Aleister Black discussed his current run in WWE and compared it to his time in the company under Vince McMahon. Things are different now, as Triple H is in charge of creative after McMahon left the company. Black came back to WWE earlier this year after leaving AEW. Here are highlights:

On making his return: “It was one of those surreal moments, because I wanted to come back for a while, and it was in the works for a minute. And to come back the way that I was allowed to come back, and then the same day my wife — after like being in a company for seven years — getting her first singles title on that same night, was absolutely great.”

On working for Triple H vs. Vince McMahon: “Vince is no longer with us in terms of like heading the company [which is the major difference]. Triple H, obviously, different atmosphere, different approach, very professional, but in a way that there’s a lot better, in my opinion, engagement with the office. And I’ve always had a good relationship with Hunter. I feel like I’m able to always kind of express how I feel with certain things or like he will listen to me. He’ll always have great ideas for me. And you know, I’ll present them with one thing. I’ve been doing that since NXT. He sees what I’m trying to do, and then will make it work even better. So you know, like, that for me is the biggest difference the first night I came back.”
