Backstage update on Julia Hart's AEW status following recent scare - Reports
Friday's AEW Rampage saw Julia Hart defend the TBS Championship. New details have just leaked about her status, following an injury scare and a previous report regarding it.
The Keeper of Secrets retained her TBS Championship over Leyla Hirsch on Friday's AEW Rampage, which was taped on Wednesday night after Dynamite. Brody King was banned from ringside due to the Open House stipulation. They brawled at ringside until Hirsch nailed a dive, but it looked like Hart may have suffered a shoulder injury as the referee checked her out. The match resumed, and Hart rolled Hirsch up for the win.
Hart's shoulder was taped up, and she was selling an injury. It was later reported that she did suffer a legitimate shoulder injury, but the severity was unknown. An updated report from Fightful Select notes that there has been fear of an injury to the 22-year-old, but she's still advertised to wrestle on Dynamite.
AEW still has Hart and King vs. Adam Copeland and Willow Nightingale listed for the Dynasty go-home edition of Dynamite. The latest word from backstage is that this is not an error as Hart is still expected to work the show.
The Princess of The Black Throne is also still scheduled to work the Dynasty pay-per-view next Sunday. Hart is set to defend against Nightingale.
