Jim Ross Comments on Malakai Black’s AEW Run – This past Wednesday on AEW Dynamite, Malakai Black lost to Adam Cole and rumors spread on social media that he was done with the company after it appeared that he was saying goodbye.
Black later stated on social media that he is not retiring and he is not leaving. On the latest “Grilling JR” podcast, Jim Ross commented on Malakai Black’s AEW run:
“You didn’t get enough consistency. He could have been more deeply woven into the story lines over time. He’s one of my favorite characters. He’s a smart guy. He’s a hell of a worker. He can be a babyface or a heel. Wherever he’s going to go, he’s going to make money and he’s going to be an asset to any company that he works for.”
Ross continued, “I talked to him a couple of pay-per-views ago, and he didn’t tell me this, but you could tell he was a little disenchanted. I mean, God Almighty. Think about this. They work a day a week. They wrestle a day a week for AEW, maybe two if they get booked on both the Saturday show and the Wednesday show, but that didn’t happen that much. If it did, you’d be working two days a week. I think his future is always going to be bright. He’s a creative guy.”
