Griff Garrison might have lost an ally in Julia Hart at AEW’s Double or Nothing pay-per-view event, but he thinks she’ll do well as a heel and is happy for her. Hart completed her heel turn at the pay-per-view event by aligning herself with the House of Black, helping them to defeat Death Triangle. This was the culmination of a months-long angle that began when Malakai Black blinded her with his black mist.
Garrison discussed Hart’s heel turn during an appearance on the A2theK Wrestling Show. You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Hart’s turn beginning months prior with Black spitting mist in her face: “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.”
On facing Black during the feud: “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 went 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.”
On Hart turning fully heel at Double or Nothing: “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.”
