Mustafa Ali returned to WWE Raw on the April 25 episode, ending a six-month absence following a creative disagreement between him and Vince McMahon.

According to Fightful Select, Last week, creatives came up with ideas to bring Ali back to WWE television. As of Sunday afternoon, plans actually called for Mustafa Ali to lose the match against The Miz, but virtually everything played out as it was planned.



Ali was scheduled to be at Raw Monday, and meet with Johnny Ace according to people within the company, and had yet to be informed of the creative plans at that point. Per sources, he was more than comfortable referencing his absence and why it happened.

Several people on the roster and the staff were excited to see Mustafa Ali back at work.

Ali's contract is up in mid-2024 as he's hinted in the past, which Fightful was able to confirm. WWE had the contractual ability to freeze his deal but hadn't to this point. There is a possibility they could still extend it due to inactivity, but there is no indication by the company that would happen.
