14 Ups & 3 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Dec 4)

12. The Initiation

Incel Evil Uno
AEW

Another week, another strong Dark Order vignette, with this one a full-on initiation for two would-be cultists.

The segment opened with an incel dude surfing the internet, posting on message boards. We cut to Evil Uno, Grayson, and a circle of flame torches surrounded by Creepers. Uno's first subject claimed he wanted to join for revenge (on society). He was welcomed into the order, but when the second - a blubbering wreck - said he just wanted friendship, he was booted in the mouth by Grayson then set upon by the Creepers. End video.

Lord knows what became of the failed initiate, but you can pretty much copy and paste the last few weeks' entries here. The Dark Order finally feel like something worth investing in. The incel cult gimmick is ideal for them, and it'll be interesting to see what reception awaits when they return to the ring.
