I had completely forgotten how well Lee can talk because of how rarely he did in WWE

So Bray Wyatt won the Universal title, Braun Strowman won the Intercontinental one, Brodie Lee started his own cult that's infiltrated all levels of society, and Erick Rowan got a spider that's dead now. We know who the family disappointment is. It's funny that the redhead of the group is getting the red-headed step child treatment

I had completely forgotten how well Lee can talk because of how rarely he did in WWE Probably because it was Vince being Vince. "Oh he can't do a convincing southern accent, so let's not have him speak pal"

Shoutout to the CHIKARA continuity in Brodie aligning with SSB. Now’s the time to bring in the true second-in-command: Colin Delaney.

I'm even more disappointed after watching the segment.
Everyone thought the promo was fire but besides the Vince line I don't see it. It was.. Alright. Underwhelming, like the whole thing. And his gear is awful.
I'm not going to bitch and moan too much after one week, but my interest in DO largely dissipated last night.

I like Brodie but the Dark Order is just such a miss for me (ditto SCU) that I wish they didn’t associate him with them. Kind of kills my interest in him moving forward.

I just watched the vid, marking the first time I have ever watched anything AEW. Love me some Harper. Good promo. Crazy how much more comfortable he sounded.
Love how he used the Sister Abigail set-up to throw out to the lariat.
The attire (minus the jacket) is hot garbage though.

Absolutely not sold on Evil Uno. Immediate goober vibes.

I liked it, overall.
One critique - he needs to refine the look. The best way I'd describe it is that he looks like what the Dark Order looked like at the launch of AEW. Put him in a suit for promos like Evil Uno but have it clear he's the leader and then put him in leather pants and a tank for matches. He just looks weird in regular attire.

Loved it. Brodie Lee is one of my favorites and I hardcore rooted for him to get added to that Wrestlemania match. Here he is in a much better position than ever before though. Always figured he would be the leader, him or Marty. Really excited to see where the Dark Order goes now.
That attire though? Oof. Feels like when Dark Order first showed up and nobody could take Uno seriously because of his terrible attire. Hopefully the same happens here and he gets better attires as he goes along.

I agree, Brodie needs to change his ring attire aside from the white jacket, maybe wear a sleeveless Dark Order shirt?

I actually think Evil Uno should stay in the suit and continue being the vocal ambassador. Let Brodie speak only when he absolutely must. No idea how this is going to play out but I like the idea of Brodie serving as a Warrior-King, so-to-speak, as leader of The Dark Order. He gave me serious Kylo-Ren vibes. So whereas Bray was given the Wyatt family to initially compensate for his physical shortcomings, let Brodie use the brainwashed Dark Order as collateral damage while he wrecks as much shop as he can. Dig the jacket. Pants are fine. Feel like a sleeveless shirt would do the trick. Keep it simple.

TBH I'm more hyped for Brodie Lee in AEW then Matt Hardy because unlike Hardy I believe Lee was never given the chance he deserved in WWE

The guy who cut that promo was kept silent for years because a deranged old man was annoyed he couldn't do a good southern accent. and even then the few times they did let him talk he knocked it out of the park in WWE. but Vince was still hung up on him not having a southern accent that he wasn't told to speak with... for some f***ing reason... Vince seems to think rednecks only exist in the south, I guess.

As one of the people that was constantly telling people that Lee was excellent during his time as Luke Harper, this pleases me greatly.

I’d change the jacket to match the Dark Order colors rather than the white and black look.

I’d change the jacket to match the Dark Order colors rather than the white and black look. I kinda get the white robe because he is the EXALTED one... like he's a higher being which is usually denoted with white. But then again the DARK order... so... eh...

Also, he didn't post a "you know what that means for Thursday." He knew one day he could wrap up this years long running gag with a great payoff.
