Griff Garrison: House Of Black Fits Julia Hart, She Has It In Her To Be A Successful Heel
At AEW Double or Nothing, Julia Hart finally revealed her true colors as she turned against The Varsity Blonds (Griff Garrison & Brian Pillman Jr) and officially aligned with House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, & Buddy Matthews).
The angle between the two sides kicked off months ago with Malakai spot his infamous black mist in the face of Julia.
Speaking on A2theK Wrestling Show, Garrison discussed Hart’s turn.
“We were somewhere up north and Brian came to me and was like, ‘I heard we were doing something with Malakai.’ ‘That’s cool.’ In wrestling, you don’t really want to believe something is happening until you do it. Even with me, I don’t believe I’m going to wrestle this person until I walk out the curtain. ‘That’s cool, I hope that happens.’ Eventually, we did the spot where he spit in the face of Julia. I can’t complain because it led to probably the coolest moment of my career thus far, being able to wrestle him one-on-one in my hometown at the Greensboro Coliseum because I wanted to every wrestling show there. To be able to go back and have a singles match on national television against him in front of all my family and friends, that was probably the coolest moment of my career. I have him to thank for that. It kept going and you saw Double or Nothing, Julia is with them. It’s a good move for her. It fits her. Yeah, she’s a cheerleader, but it fits her, knowing the real Julia Hart. It fits her and I’m happy for her. She’s got it in her to be a really successful heel. I’m proud of her and she’s doing her thing,” he said.
Garrison vs. Black happened on the December 22 episode of AEW Dynamite. Black picked up the victory in the bout.
Garrison most recently competed on the June 21 episode of AEW Dark, teaming with Pillman Jr & Brock Anderson to defeat Jay Lucas, Larry Lazard & Terry Yaki.
