#5 Former WWE star Bray Wyatt could arrive in AEW to lead the Dark Order
Former WWE star and leader of AEW's Dark Order, Brodie Lee, left a huge void with his demise. Could Bray Wyatt assume the role of the new Dark Order leader if the company signs him? He is an internationally-renowned megastar and will bring a different flavor to AEW's programming.
Imagine the feuds he could potentially have with Malakai Black or even Miro, who's made 'faith' a part of his gimmick.
There could also be faction wars in AEW, between The Dark Order and The Inner Circle, The Elite, and even The Pinnacle. Bray Wyatt and Chris Jericho could renew their WWE rivalry too.
