I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'like nobleman in a labor reshuffle' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'in a labor reshuffle' is the wordplay.
'reshuffle' indicates anagramming the letters.
'in'+'a'+'labor'='inalabor'
'inalabor' with letters rearranged gives 'BARONIAL'.

Can you help me to learn more?
