AEW makes a huge announcement on House of Black's future plans ahead of Dynamite
AEW faction House of Black consists of Malakai Black (leader), Brody King, Buddy Matthews, and Julia Hart. They are former AEW World Trios Champions, a title which they held for more than 170 days.
Malakai Black and Buddy Matthews were previously signed to the WWE. There the former won the NXT Championship once and the latter won multiple championships, like the WWE Cruiserweight Championship, the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship (with Seth Rollins), and the NXT Tag Team Championship (with Wesley Blake). Their only female member, Julia Hart, is a former AEW TBS Champion.
Recently, it was announced that this stable (Black, King, and Matthews) will be present in the upcoming episode of Dynamite, which will take place in Salt Lake City. Interestingly, the three men haven't competed as a trio on the Wednesday night show since May 24, 2023.
AEW's post on X (fka Twitter) read:
"#AEWDynamite, 10/23 @Maverik_Center | Salt Lake City LIVE 8pm ET/ 7pm CT on TBS After decimating the opposition on #AEWCollision, House Of Black (@malakaiblxck @SNM_Buddy @Brodyxking) are hungry for competition! Who will step up to them THIS WEDNESDAY?"
It will be interesting to see who will have the courage to stand up to this terrifying bunch. Nevertheless, fans are expecting a memorable show and a very brutal match.
According to former WCW star Disco Inferno, AEW's House of Black is hard to deal with backstage
Earlier this year, Disco Inferno appeared on an episode of Keepin' in 100 OFFICIAL and revealed that House of Black is troublesome backstage. They reportedly reject creative ideas regularly. However, Tony Khan gave them new contracts so that he could prevent them from going to WWE.
"I've heard our sources tell us that they're a pain to deal with backstage; they're constantly turning down creative, but I guess they didn't want them going back to WWE, so I guess they re-signed him," said Inferno.
The AEW World Trios Championship is currently held by PAC, Claudio Castagnoli, and Wheeler Yuta. But maybe the House of Black is looking to win these titles once again.
