A former AEW champion made a blockbuster return after almost eight months and took everybody by surprise. This will no doubt excite a lot of fans.
Over the last month, there were a few vignettes of Julia Hart and it was hinted that she could be making her comeback soon. She was last seen at AEW Dynasty where she lost her TBS Title to Willow Nightingale.
Since then, she has been away due to a shoulder injury that also required surgery. It has now been revealed that the star made her return at the December 12 Collision tapings from the Chaifetz Arena.
Willow Nightingale took on Jamie Hayter in a match to qualify for the Wrestle Dynasty International Women’s Cup which will take place at the Tokyo Dome in January. Willow came up victorious but she was surprised by a shock return by Hart.

The House of Black member however laid out Jamie Hayter with a DDT and marked her first appearance in the ring since losing to Willow in April.
Jim Ross predicts big run in AEW for Julia Hart
Julia Hart has a lot of fans in AEW but the biggest one appears to be WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross.
The veteran commentator has recently spoken out on Hart’s imminent return and said that he sees her being dominant in the women’s division. He was speaking on a recent episode of Grilling JR when he said:
"I’m a big Julia Hart fan. I think she’s just the best. I can see her really being dominant with a slew of wins in the women’s division. She’s just a great character. She looks good, and I’m all for her. She’s good."
Given her talent and imminent return, it is expected that she will have a big run in the company. Considering the fact that she held the TBS Title before going on a hiatus, one should not be surprised if she gets a title shot when she comes back.
