Dark Order in 8-Man Tag on AEW Dark: Elevation
The Dark Order was once one of the strongest factions in AEW, first under the leadership of the late Mr. Brodie Lee, and later with “Hangman” Adam Page as a fierce ally. Since parting ways with Page back in July, The Dark Order has been rudderless and slowly coming apart at the seams. Although Evil Uno tried to take Page’s place at the head of the group, his leadership was soon challenged by Alan “5” Angels. The two faced off in a one-on-one match earlier this month on AEW: Dark, which saw Uno get the win.
Not content with that loss, however, Angels teamed up with stablemate 10 last week on AEW Dark: Elevation to defeat Evil Uno and Colt Cabana. Far from helping to bury the hatchet, that match only drove the members of Dark Order further apart, with Uno accidentally unmasking Angels, before Angels came back to get the win over Uno. The group hasn’t appeared united since then, although rumors have been flying that the former Bray Wyatt could appear this week on Dynamite from Rochester to reassemble The Dark Order and bring them back to glory. Either way, the saga of The Dark Order continues on AEW Dark: Elevation tomorrow when John Silver, Alex Reynolds, Alan “5” Angels, and 10 team up in an eight-man tag team match against TJ Crawford, Eric James, Kevin Tibbs, and Dean Alexander.
