Malakai Black believed to be finishing up with AEW

Him being 39 definitely doesn’t help.

Unlike Andrade and Kross though, I could see him challenging for the World Heavyweight Championship. Maybe not winning it, who knows, if he gets super over anything is possible.

I could see him being like Rey Mysterio. Rey at this stage of his career is a midcarder. BUT, if you put Rey in the main event, it’s believable. That’s Black’s ceiling imo.

unlike Andrade he can promo so he has that to help him get through a program. I do think he could challenge cody and lose. best case scenario he could win the wannabe world title possibly

Yeah that’s the belt I meant. The one Gunther has.

I don’t see him competing for the big World title.

Plus the World Heavyweight Championship is on Raw and that’s where his wife is.

yeah I think being with his wife is likely a big priority for him from what we've heard him say in the past

All health dependant but I think he will kill it if he goes back. He won't win the big ones but he can realistically do some good stuff with the majority of the top guys there like Seth, Cody and the rest.

I think the titles switch soon but unsure since they haven't yet, it's looking less likely. A few weeks ago I thought for sure Netflix was getting Cody tho

I guess they would have if Rock was locked in? Now they can probably just stay as they are until an official draft or whatever

I am honestly shocked cody and roman are not on netflix - sdl has rapidly became the b show (from what i can tell, please correct me if i am full of shit lol) - it's not longer the must see show it was on Fox

Crocker · Jan 16, 2025

Isn’t Roman a free agent who can do both shows?

I’m sure that’s what Heyman said at the last draft.

Unless they have Mania plans for him they may hold him off for a while.

It is also very likely he could be who Chad Gable has been talking about going to see.

Where you probably don't think of him when you hear Lucha Libre, they did mention the word Dark Arts, his school is called The Dark Arts.

That feels a weird and goofy spot to bring him back
