Scrapped Pitch For New House Of Black Member Revealed

All Elite Wrestling considered adding a new member to House of Black earlier this year.

Speaking on Talk Is Jericho, Bryan Keith revealed his reaction to being added to Chris Jericho's plans for the Learning Tree with Big Bill.

"It was shocking, man. I remember hearing other groups that I would potentially be in, maybe four different groups, and none of them were Learning Tree. Whenever you let me know that I'm possibly gonna be with you guys, man, I remember just [laughs] dropping everything and being like, 'What? That's...' Never in a million years. I was trained by Booker T. That is my era of wrestling, Ruthless Aggression era is stuff I grew up on, stuff I feel like is the best product that I watched, and you guys were the reason for that. I'm trained by Booker T, now working with you, so it's a movie, man. My life is a movie," Keith said.

The 'Bounty Hunter' then revealed he believes two of the groups under consideration were Shane Taylor Promotions and House of Black.

"I think one of them was potentially Shane Taylor Promotions. Another one was, I know they were throwing around maybe House of Black possibly, something like that, I don't know for sure. Then I don't remember what the other one was, I just remember it wasn't you guys, that's for sure [laughs]," Keith added.

House of Black is currently composed of Malakai Black, Brody King, Buddy Matthews and Julia Hart. The trio of Black, King and Matthews will face the Bang Bang Gang on AEW Collision for a shot at challenging The Patriarchy for the AEW World Trios Titles at All In.
