      Man I hate that you’re right.

      When they had that whole feud against the righteous, so full of symbolism, with Stu leaving to force them to pull out their mean side again, literally getting pendulum bombed on legos to save the group from irrelevance, I was so happy they were getting properly spotlit in RoH.

      And that went absolutely nowhere. They lost their title shot at All Out and faded back into obscurity.

      Every time they bring them out they show up, and hard, and still they can’t seem to get a push to save their lives. I hate it.

        Taking Preston out was the end, there I said it.

        With Brodie gone, DO either needed Uno to step up full as the boss, or get a new leader. They faltered with it hard, DO had no threat to it anymore. The beaver boys are too damn likable to play full on heel, Uno can do it fine, Stu is/was/is again awol/gone. Preston could have been a good option to be chosen to lead, would need to build him up a bit but he shed blood for the DO more than once, but they pulled him for LFI and…however that’s gone.

        Now DO is just Silver, Reynolds, and Uno and I see more of Uno on MW than AEW/ROH right now.

          Hell they had a story where Uno took the position of leader! It was the last one they had on AEW

            It’s feeling like the only way Dark Order could have flourished was if we had lived in an alternate reality where Brodie Jr was approx. 18 when Sr. died. Ditch the mask, ‘grow up’, become the new exalted one and things go up and up.

            But no we got this one with covid and low wages n shit.

              Or don’t spend weeks of building up Uno as the next leader culminating in him taking on Mox just to have him lose to Mox in 2 minutes

              I’m not bitter or anything lol
