AEW faction The Dark Order's John Silver and Alex Reynolds recently teased recruiting six-time WWE World Champion Batista into their stable.

It's no secret that Dark Order has been struggling lately due to the absence of Hangman Page and internal issues between members. As such, the faction is trying its best to recover lost ground.

In the latest episode of the smash-hit YouTube exclusive show, Being The Elite, Alex Reynolds and John Silver discussed the future of The Dark Order. Reynolds sounded particularly concerned about the stable losing its standing in AEW.

When Reynolds stated that they should make friends and recruit more people into the stable, Silver pitched Batista's name. Silver was in a little inebriated condition while talking to Reynolds, which is why the latter didn't seem to pay much heed to the suggestion.

However, it's unlikely that Batista will join The Dark Order. The WWE legend is mighty busy with his Hollywood projects and has a healthy relationship with Vince McMahon's promotion.


Who could be the next leader of The Dark Order in AEW?

Batista aside, Bray Wyatt is a likely contender to join and lead The Dark Order. The former WWE star is strongly rumored to sign with Tony Khan's promotion and debut at the September 29th edition of AEW Dynamite.

If Bray Wyatt signs with #AEW, words cannot describe how much I would love to see him become the leader of the Dark Order and finish the agenda Brodie Lee started 🙏🏽. https://t.co/Y5uwdZQj3c

The show will emanate from Rochester, New York, the hometown of the late Brodie Lee - the former leader of The Dark Order. Lee was also closely associated with Bray Wyatt in WWE, where the two were part of The Wyatt Family.
