Julia Hart & La Faccion Ingobernable Make Surprise Returns at Sat. Collision Show

Saturday’s Collision show in Uncasville also featured Julia Hart and La Faccion Ingobernable making their surprise returns to AEW.

Prior to the start of the Dax Harwood vs. Ricky Starks match, the lights went out and when they came back on, House of Black was seen watching on in the crowd. Following Starks victory over Harwood via some outside assistance by Big Bill, the lights went out again and when they came back on, Julia Hart was seen on the stage and moved her arm out towards the direction of the ring. This led to the lights going out again and when they reappeared, House of Black was in the ring staring down FTR.

Before House of Black, Starks, and Big Bill were able to attack FTR, La Faccion’s music played and RUSH, Preston Vance, and Dralistico made their surprise returns walking down the ramp to the ring. LFI then attacked HoB leading to a mass brawl breaking out with FTR and Starks and Big Bill.

LFI & FTR brawl with House of Black, Starks & Big Bill!
