Aleister Black biography

Silent. Striking. Unstoppable.

Aleister Black emerges from the shadows with cold precision and leaves chaos in his wake. Trained in kickboxing and the Indonesian martial art of pencak silat, the Dutch destroyer wields one of WWE’s most feared weapons — the Black Mass spinning heel kick.

After dominating the global independent scene, Black stormed NXT, going undefeated in singles competition for over a year and capturing the NXT Championship at TakeOver: New Orleans. His ascent to the main roster saw him clash with the likes of AJ Styles, Sami Zayn, and Kevin Owens in hard-hitting, psychological showdowns.

Black returned in April 2025 with one message — nothing has changed. One Black Mass to The Miz sent that message loud and clear.

With a quiet aura and violent artistry, Aleister Black doesn’t ask for attention — he commands it. And when the lights go out, someone always fades to black.
