8 Wrestlers Who Could Be Revealed As Leader Of The Dark Order

8. Kevin Sullivan

Pros:

Knows his way around removing a hood to reveal himself. AEW, which is 95% brilliant, has this weird habit of thinking casual fans have deep knowledge of the Independent fringe (Butcher and the Blade) and the obscure reaches of the past (Dr. Luther) when debuting a surprise act.

Kevin Sullivan is famed for being spooky, more or less popularised spooky in modern pro wrestling, and the creative figureheads of AEW have shown keen interest in paying respect to pro wrestling's territorial past and mining it for ideas. Tony Khan has made clear his love for the territory days, and his idea to borrow from the Florida territory to get over AEW's signature Lights Out match is interesting; it was in the Sunshine State that Sullivan inspired the supernatural gimmicks that WWE became so beloved of, so the President is at the very least aware of the Prince of Darkness.

Cons:

His influence and attendant respect haven't made it through to 2020; a trailblazer in his time, Sullivan is too inextricably linked with the Dungeon of Doom to have survived in terms of credibility. Isn't going to grab a WON ****1/4 rating in a six-man tag.

Probability: 2%
