First the BB was a creation of space and time as we know them today.....
Nothing with mass travels FTL.
Space has no mass so there is nothing wrong in it expanding FTL.

A BH is one of three remnants of the death of stars......they are White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars, and BH's.
Which one that results depends on the mass of the star.
Our Sun for example is relatively small, and will leave a WD when it has exhausted its available nuclear fuel...
Neutron Stars are left when stars of higher mass exhaust their fuel....
And finally we can have BH's form when really big stars use up their available fuel.

A star is stable as long as the Radiative pressure from fusion reactions, is supported by gravity.
Very massive stars undergo many fusion reactions...H to He to Mg O and eventually if they are big enough they fuse Iron/Nickel....Then no more fusion is possible so they have a drop in radiative pressure and gravity simply takes over.
All the outer mass is slammed and rebounded off the Iron/nickel core, which results in a supernova and a core so dense that the escape velocity of light is reached...We then have a BH.
This is a rough account of what happens. That basically is all a BH is.

Important things to know...
[1] the BB was not an explosion of matter and energy...It was a creation and expansion of space and time as we know them.

[2] Matter came later during what we call phase transitions and the decoupling of the super force...similar to the changing of water to Ice or vise versa...

[3]Since the BB was an expansion of space/time from an infinitesimal point, the BB has no center of origin and can be seen to have happened everywhere at the same time due to the expansion of that space/time



[4] Light [photons were unable to travel through the UNIVERSE/SPACE/TIME until at least 400,000 years after the BB.
This was when temperatures and pressures from the original BB was able to drop far enough [through space/time expansion] to enable electrons to couple with hydrogen nucleii to form the first element and thus enable space to become transparent and light [photons] to flow.

[5] Gravity caused these massive clouds of hydrogen and some Helium to conglomerate into a disk like fashion which over a few hundred million years collapsed to reach extreme temperatures again and undergo nuclear ignition and the first stars.



[] Nothing of mass can travel at "c" the speed of light or faster.
