Is Dark Order running on fumes?

Honestly after Brodie died it seemed like the Dark Order lacked a plan. Im not sure if that was the case or catalyst. But it doesn't help theyre down four members in Colt Cabana, Stu Grayson, Anna Jay and Number 10. I dont know what they can do to right the ship but it's slowly sinking.

Kinda late and I know its not the point(Since I agree a lot of members leaving really hurt the group) but Number 5 left, not 10.

You've thought more members would join to fill the gaps. Fuego it seemed had aligned with them months back. If they need another girl, get Abadon.

I wonder if they think that it'd mess with the original group Dynamic, but at this point they really do need an "Era 2", especially with Anna Jay leaving

It'd get more people on TV or in a direction, with them saying Dark Order isn't going anywhere I think this would be the next logical step eventually.

Are they ice cold right now? Yes. Are people like Uno and Jon Silver talented enough to get people caring again if they do get a push? Also yes

Honestly just disband them at this point. Hardly any faction exists forever and this one is dead in the water at this point.

Has TK shown any interest in using them seriously and steadily.

Nope.

The talent is not at fault here

This thread title just makes me think of Cole's SvR commentary when someone's stamina runs out and he says "IT'S STARTING TO LOOK LIKE HE'S RUNNING ON FUMES!"

I figured the group, as a whole, was being held together strictly as an homage to Brodie.

Rampage this week will be the judge on if this holds up or not tbh, they beat House of Black it's a big deal, despite the thoughts on their booking they're still a favorite

They were over as all hell last week during the Dark tapings in Charleston....I haven't watched, but apparently that DID translate to the broadcast as well (impressive since the venue was maybe 3/4 full when they came out.)

I think they're about to go on a Trios Tournament finals run...unless the story is they lose in the first round and Hanger comes back to the Bucks to be in THEIR corner (not their teammate, but out there in addition to Nak and Callis) in the tournament.

I dunno...real curious about this specific piece of story telling right now.

Never said it was. My point was more that if they decide to give them a push they're talented enough that it wouldn't take much effort by the booking team to get them momentum

I thought with Anna Jay turning they were gonna recruit a new female and have a little JAS v DO feud. But besides some comments on BtE I don't think they mentioned her

"Fumes? I guess they're more like the Dark Odor, huh?"
