Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful has provided some backstage news about Ali. The Smackdown Superstar has apparently impressed a lot of people backstage.
That includes both Eric Bischoff and Vince McMahon, who were both reportedly impressed with the recent match between Ali and Elias.
Here is what Sapp wrote about Ali:
The former 205 Live standout has made an impression on many he’s worked with on Smackdown Live, especially Eric Bischoff according to those that we spoke to. Both he and Vince McMahon were said to have walked up to Ali and congratulated him on the King of the Ring match he had with Elias, with one saying it was Elias’ best match.
Eric Bischoff was said to be in favor of pushing Ali, though there have been stops and starts and unfulfilled plans made for Ali in the past.
My Take: This is definitely a good sign for Ali’s future on the blue brand. He is a talented dude and I would love to see him get a nice push. Impressing Bischoff and Vince are great signs for him.
