Rumors continue to circulate that fans have seen the last of Malakai Black in an AEW ring, months after fans last saw the former Trios Champion on programming. On Instagram, AEW shared a hype video for Brody King, Buddy Matthews and Julia Hart. Not only did the video omit Black, but the caption avoided mentioning the House of Black stable by name, and similarly avoided mentioning the group’s namesake.
This interesting post comes amid reports that Black is finishing his time with AEW. On TV, Buddy Matthews has been encouraged to break away from Black’s control, and pursue a singles run in 2025. Brody King has filed a trademark for the term ‘Hounds Of Hell’ which many are seeing as a new stable name that demonstrates AEW is moving forward without Black being a factor in plans.
The Dutch wrestler last competed for AEW at November’s Full Gar pay-per-view. At the event, He teamed with Brody King for a fatal four-way tag team championship match but the duo were unsuccessful. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Malakai Black’s future in wrestling, as AEW continues to hint that fans have seen the last of the former NXT Champion in an AEW ring.
