lol malakai just got on live & put the rumors to bed....said he'll be back in AEW in a few weeks or a few months....& to not play him in the tribalism between the companies...he was never released
Holy s***, just caught Malakai Black on IG Live going off.
Said he’s not going anyway, he’s taking a “couple weeks, maybe a couple months” off, that he’s got mental health and personal issues to deal with (kinda sounded like shot with Thea to me the way he was wording it) and will be back in AEW. Said the dirt sheets are talking s***, that if you don’t hear it from him it’s not true and to keep him out of the tribalism WWE vs. AEW bullshit. Also said his contract was never for 5 years.
Watching raw live tonight was quite an experience lmao
Worth watching?
Worth watching?
Cool to see childhood favourites like Rey live for the first time.
And edge making an appearance
Dakota
Idk wtf was happening with aj but Sami carried that lol
Someone’s gotta be feeding someone bullshit to cause some craziness backstage.
I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
I think he probably did ask for his release after that talent meeting but they worked it out in private and TK had him go off on sabbatical but all people backstage heard was him asking for his release.
It doesn’t help when he has a history of going off on the dirt sheets and it comes out later that they were telling the truth.
I still remember when the Observer reported on the details behind Black’s WWE release and he was acting like Dave was talking s*** only for him to later get on Twitch and confirm everything Dave originally reported as correct.
I think a lot of talent hate that they don’t get the chance to tell their side of the story first before it gets reported by someone else.
Apparently Black is getting death threats now because of his break as well which is out of order.

Yeah Malakai was being weird that time when his WWE released happened
nodq.com/news/why-adam-cole-and-malakai-black-arent-expected-back-in-wwe-anytime-soon
See, this is what I mean by Black saying s*** only for evidence to later suggest that he’s not got it right.
He was going off on the live about the dirt sheets saying he has five years on his contract and how that isn’t the case…
…except the original source that came from was Tony Khan himself in an interview.
“I’ve got people signed here for five years and people think that just because the CEO, Chairman, head of creative, those people changed in the competition, people I have five-year contracts with are going to magically switch teams? Good luck with that. Adam Cole is signed until 2027 now. I wouldn’t expect to see him going anywhere anytime soon. Malakai Black has almost five years left on his deal. I wouldn’t expect him going anywhere anytime soon. Just because these guys had some success under a previous administration somewhere else, they’re not magically going to be going anywhere. Those are two people I like, just as examples of people who have worked under the previous administration. I’m very amused by that. That’s a narrative I see so-called wrestling writers pushing every day. It’s pretty amusing.”
Dude shoots himself in the foot everytime he goes live on social media.
Blows my mind people are angry at this
IDK what else I expected reading through those replies & QRTs
Before posting the second one, he tweeted and deleted that he had screenshots of Black telling a WWE talent that he wished he was over there with him.
Well it’s not Edge
some of y'all were determined to believe it was him. wonder why
Imagine if it was a QR code to a new WWE studios horror film
That'd be better than it being edge tbh
Curious to see if “budget cuts”releases or releases in general happen with HHH in charge.

Lmao hey call me a d*** but I don’t believe that. No one’s marking out over Malakai Black like that
