Based on Avdol's claim that he punches people silly, it could be interpreted that Red Garland's power causes disorientation when he hits people, which, depending on the severity and how the individual reacts, could result in all the status effects it causes. One could then assume that Red Garland Requiem's upgraded effect allows it to damage bodily function in general, such as causing the nervous system to short out, inhibiting the body's ability to process routine toxins, block the blood's clotting ability, or damaging the body's internal temperature regulation. These would all result (in an exaggerated anime setting, at least) in various effects analogous to the game's status effects, and explain why that attack can inflict such a wide variety of them despite Red Garland's prior limited access to physical statuses.
