Aleister Black sends message after missing out on WWE SummerSlam

Aleister Black could not make it to the WWE SummerSlam match card despite his ongoing feud with a former World Heavyweight Champion. The SmackDown star shared a social media update ahead of Night Two of the premium live event.

The 40-year-old is involved in a fierce rivalry with Damian Priest. The two competed in a singles bout on the go-home edition of the blue brand heading into The Biggest Party of the Summer. The bout ended in a DQ finish as Black threw a steel chair directly into The Archer of Infamy's face. However, he continued to attack the former member of The Judgment Day even after the match.

Earlier today, Aleister Black took to his Instagram account to share a post, which included a clip from one of his training sessions. The WWE star could be seen teaching striking techniques to his students at his Dark Arts Gym. He also shared a short message in the caption.
