5 former WWE Superstars who should join the Dark Order

A few big names were included in WWE's latest set of releases and some of them might just be perfect for the Dark Order.

After failing to find their niche as a brooding faction, the Dark Order clicked with fans after tapping into their comedic side. However, the group is capable of a lot more and could reach main event status with the addition of the right characters and a slight tweak to their presentation.

Here are five former WWE Superstars who would enhance the Dark Order by joining the faction.

#5. WWE could've done a lot more with Buddy Murphy

A talented performer who had the world at his feet, Buddy Murphy was criminally underutilized during his tenure with WWE. The company squandered an opportunity to establish Murphy as a top star during his storyline with Seth Rollins.

Even though the Australian Superstar came out of the program as a babyface and even defeated Rollins, he lost momentum due to the angle with Aalyah Mysterio and his subsequent loss to Cesaro.

Allowing Murphy to head the Dark Order could work wonders for both parties. In addition to giving him a new coat of paint, the Dark Order would feel refreshed with the addition of a new leading star.

#4. Killian Dain is determined to prove a point

While he may not be cut out to be the leader of the Dark Order, Killian Dain would still be a formidable addition to the group. Dain has already demonstrated that he can be an integral part of a faction during his run with SAnitY on NXT.

Following his release from WWE, the Irish star is incredibly motivated to make his mark in the world of professional wrestling. During an interview with Sportskeeda, Dain said:

"Honestly, it won't be directly...it won't be like the day after the 90-days are up. But in the months coming, what they're going to expect, they're going to see the chip in the shoulder that I've been talking about." Dain contined, "Because there is a fire in my belly, there's an anger, there's a monkey on my back, there's a thousand analogies and a thousand sayings I could use here."

#3. Jake Roberts would enhance the Dark Order

One of the greatest promos of all time, WWE Hall of Famer Jake Roberts has the potential to be an incredible manager for the Dark Order.

His grit and mastery of psychology would complement the faction and expedite their transformation into a group that means business. Roberts could even occasionally nail opponents with his signature DDT.

As evidenced by his run with Lance Archer, the legend hasn't lost his ability on the microphone and can enhance anyone he works with.

#2. Would Braun Strowman be a good fit within AEW?

A Vince McMahon favorite over the years, Braun Strowman's release from WWE came as a surprise. The Monster Among Men was carefully protected for most of his WWE tenure, and he even won the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 36.

An established name with a physical appearance that would stand out in AEW, Strowman could instantly elevate the Dark Order and make them a force to be reckoned with.

He might even win the AEW World Championship and enjoy a run with the title.

#1. Where will Bray Wyatt resurface following his release from WWE?

While he found success during the latter stages of his WWE career as The Fiend, Bray Wyatt was even more entertaining when he burst onto the stage as the cult leader at the head of The Wyatt Family.

His goosebump-inducing entrance and cryptic promos made him one of the most compelling characters in professional wrestling. If Wyatt were to take over as the leader of the Dark Order, he would not only revitalize the faction but also complete a spectacular return to form.

Reuniting Wyatt and Strowman in the Dark Order would also provide the group with more credibility and make their ascent to the main event scene smoother.
