WWE NXT Star Aleistar Black Introduced CODE ORANGE At Download Festival This Weekend

WWE and Download Fest, a match made in rock heaven!

WWE and Download Fest, a match made in rock heaven!

A few months ago, WWE's developmental league, NXT debutted Aleister Black, who immediately had the most metal wrestling entrance ever. The dude is a legit metalhead/hardcore fan. NXT is on tour in England this week, including daily shows at the massive Download Festival. So naturally, Aleister decided to take in some bands.

Code Orange, who are noted wrestling fans themselves (we even talked to Jami about his love of pro graps), wanted to share the love. They invited Aleister onstage to introduce them, and WWE was there to film it:

Aleister himself says he is here to represent the underground:

Code Orange returned the favor by sitting ringside, watching Aleister win his match:

Aleister also made sure to reconnect with his BFF, Andy Williams of Every Time I Die:

It looks like they got mighty intimate:

Aleister wasn't the only one taking in the bands. UK wrestler Mark Andrews was watching a pop-punk band when he got attacked by WWE UK champion Pete Dunne:

Meanwhile, Sanity member Alexander Wolfe was pitting during Every Time I Die, according to Andy Williams:

I wish there was footage of this. WWE and Download Fest, a match made in rock heaven!
