As someone who's grown up on WWE, I've often felt that AEW does not do a very good job in putting the spotlight on the gimmicks behind their top performers, which is necessary if you consider how outlandish some of them can be. This week, they introduced us to the Dark Order through what seemed like a recruitment ad! It was entertaining, it was fun, and it was very well made!

A lot of times, it feels like AEW only did promo packages for the likes of Cody Rhodes and the performers who are at the top of the food chain. I've often wondered why The Dark Order carries 'creepers' around wherever they do. I'm certain you have too!
While the question was not directly answered through the segment, I loved the promo video. This approach is certain to get a lot of their performers 'over'.
