According to PWInsider, WWE originally planned for Aleister Black to face Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42 in a storyline where Black would psychologically torment Orton to bring back his "Apex Predator" persona.

Pat McAfee's role at WrestleMania ultimately replaced the planned Black storyline, though the core concept of Orton reverting to his darker persona remained intact.
