The Dark Order<\/strong> continued to grow its ranks as on Wednesday night, Brodie Lee<\/strong> recruited the group’s first women’s division star in the newly signed Anna Jay<\/strong><\/a>. Following her loss to Abadon<\/strong><\/a>, who was announced as having joined All Elite Wrestling<\/strong> shortly after the match, members of the Dark Order ascended into the ring to help Jay up. No words were exchanged but as Brodie Lee<\/strong> reached out his hand and Jay accepted, it became clear that the Dark Order’s recruiting efforts were still going on in earnest.<\/p>\n

The third Nightmare Factory<\/strong> trainee to join the Dark Order<\/a> (Preston Vance<\/strong><\/a> and Alan Angels<\/strong><\/a> being the other two), Anna Jay first debuted in AEW in April. Following an impressive showing against current women’s champion Hikaru Shida<\/strong>, AEW announced that Jay had officially signed a contract with the company. Very new to wrestling, Jay began her career in 2019 and has wrestled with just a handful of matches in her short career. A native of Georgia, Jay is known for her time in Georgia Premier Wrestling<\/strong> and recently debuted with New Jersey\u2019s Empower Wrestling<\/strong> as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Star of the Show,” Jay, who received her wrestling training from QT Marshall<\/strong> and WCW<\/strong> superstar Glacier<\/strong>, has received positive reactions to her time in AEW thus far, having made appearances on both DARK<\/strong> and Dynamite<\/strong>. While joining the Dark Order won’t guarantee Jay’s success, her addition as a female recruit is certainly intriguing. Jay now has a backing behind her as well as the numbers game which is sure to play into things as it has in many Dark Order matches to this point.<\/p>\n
