"HHH (Triple H) at home mad as hell" - Twitter explodes to AEW teasing poorly booked faction's return on Dynamite

On last night's episode of AEW Dynamite, a cryptic video played that teased the return of one of Triple H's former NXT Champions. Malakai Black and his faction members of The House of Black were featured in the video package.

After their trio’s match at AEW All Out, the faction has been absent from the promotion. It was later revealed that Malakai Black requested some time off, and so did Buddy Matthews due to some personal issues.

Last night on AEW Dynamite, a video was played that seemingly teased the return of The House of Black. The new vignette indicated that the faction was being reborn.

Fans were upset over the faction's first run and blamed Tony Khan for it. This time around, they are expecting the faction to be booked better.

@Ricardo013Silva I think a lot of promises were made to WWE guys that jumped ship to AEW. They didn't know what to do with WWE talent after buying them. Malakai Black would have way more opportunity in the WWE with Triple H at the helm.

@AEW Lol what a waste of time. Back to doing the same thing you were when you were being booked like trash losing to Dark order. Guess Tony wasn’t granting that release. Sad

However, some fans were fascinated by the quality of the video package and felt this matched the standards of a high budget Hollywood movie.

Some fans even compared the House of Black to Bray Wyatt's recent return. They had mixed feelings on who was the better star.

@AEW “You don’t like what Bray does, but you like THIS?!?”
Yes, I like this. I like it bc there isn’t a hidden meaning, and another meaning underneath that meaning, and it’s not out of a comic book, and it’s not pretending to be “deep”.
It’s gothic, spooky, and stays in its lane.

@AEW I'll admit. I'm liking how this looks. It's a lot better than what Malakai Black was doing with the first incarnation. They look like an actual dark cultists, instead of them being a bunch of edgelords try hards with the face paint. Julia Hart in this vignette is such a huge win.

Malakai Black's run in WWE under Triple H

Malakai Black made his mark in WWE NXT. Back then Triple H was in full control of the developmental brand and had pushed Black to the top.

Malakai wrestled under the name Aliester Black. He portrayed a similarly dark character as he does in AEW. Black quickly rose to the top and held the NXT Championship.

Both him and Triple H had a good relationship and shared a similar mind-set, thus his character became one of the most popular gimmicks. Unfortunately, his run on the main roster was not as memorable. He was eventually released from the company.

Do you think Malakai Black would have faired well on the current main roster of WWE that's under the control of Triple H? Let us know in the comments section below
