The Dark Order is completely worthless.

[Deleted]

Let me preempt you before you go, "Oh, it's okay, they'll get up and try again, it's..."

It's been two years straight of these morons getting their asses kicked at every possible turn and they didn't even get to looking passingly competent tonight. They're absolutely pathetic. If you're not going to do anything with this stable then just break them up or leave them to rot away on Youtube and stop wasting everyone's time with the pretense.

The company is two years old and there have only been four tag team champions

As much as you're gonna hate to hear it they AEW gonna get their time and it probably is gonna come at All Out. It's what it's all being set up towards.

There was also nothing but interference in that match to beat everyone including Dark Order. I don't really mind when it's pretty clear they're gonna get their moments.

They lose and they are over. Thats a lot. Who else can do that? What more do you want?

[Fake Jesus]

Almost every time I open one of your threads you seem to be incredibly hyperbolically bitter over events on a fictional TV show that occurred within 3-5 hours of the thread getting made. Have you considered simply waiting a day or so post-show before making them?

[smokinvokoun86]

They’ve never won much and they are STILL the most over group in the company.

Dark Order definitely heard about this thread.

Wait, did Lizuka delete his account?

What counts as “doing something” with them?

They have been important supporting characters in Hangman’s character arc, his support structure and his friends. They matter in their role.

Just because they don’t win a lot doesn’t mean they aren’t doing anything.

Kinda looks that way

[MolotovMocktail]

They could stand to prune a few members. You basically have 3 tag teams in one faction.

After all the buildup and ups and downs, this could have been a starmaking performance for at least a few of them and... We didn't really get that. We know they're all very good in the ring, and I learnt Stu Grayson can do more flips than I expected, which was cool, but he was out of the match very quickly after. And everyone's dream of Silver bringing it home for Hangman was extinguished without much fanfare before we even got to that point of the match. And since we all know the stipulation isn't going to stick, it just leaves me wondering what the hell the point was other than to make them look ineffective and not in the Elite's league.

Silver and Grayson stood out. Especially Silver who got his house of fire moment and the crowd was super hot for him.

I agree so hard with every word.

This wasn't just Dark Order and Hangman losing. It was Dark Order getting picked off like goobers until the match was down to the core Elite and Hangman. Their only pinfall was on Karl Anderson, with a countout on Gallows.

This wasn't even looking good in a loss, and now they've lost a major match with a stipulation that will require a deus ex machina to undo.

Just, damn.

What did we expect, his custom title on the sub used to be "doesn't like stuff".

I think there might've been more in store for them but they might've audibled Stu out of the match to check on him after the dive (He's ok)

I think with all the cheating they did it'll be fine. You can build Dark Order up naturally as challengers depending on if you wanna go Uno and Grayson or Silver and Reynolds.

This should be the start of their roads. Rock bottom has been hit. The next five weeks are gonna be when they turn it around I would assume. 

[jimmyjackezekiel]

If I had to guess the mods cracked down on him, and he got pissed off, and yeeted his account in protest.

As much as it shames me to admit I once did the same thing here too in my younger years when I wasn't quite used to how things worked here.

Y’all would have shit yourself every week watching the Horsemen straight up murder Dusty (or Magnum TA…or Sting….)

How the Elite are being booked is literally no different than a thousand different angles that have happened before and influenced Tony’s booking style.

And the end game will also be informed by those same angles.

Hangman the conquering baby face champion at the end of their biggest show of the year.

How a booking decision on a random Wednesday in July changed that (which in some people’s eyes it apparently did) I will NEVER know.

Ok, if he deleted his account, then we're done talking about him and thread is closed.
