Aatrox can apparently do very well in the jungle as well, due to obvious reasons. He has the sustain to do it, he has a ranged slow and a ranged engage/stun. What more does a jungler need?
Riot has been talking sometimes about their melee carries. Fiora and Master Yi. They didn't really work out and aren't technically viable for those purposes. Whenever a "carry" tends to get too close to the actual combat, they get focused down too quickly. Aatrox seems to be dealing with the same thing, except that his ultimate allows him to get some extra range, and his constant healing and passive GA (Yes, his passive actually works like a GA. While he's being "revived", he can't be damaged) he can practically get right into the middle of it all without (too) many concerns!
Technically, he fits the role of a melee carry. Sustained damage in melee range with some survivability.
