The Dark Order started off in a strange way with AEW, but they eventually morphed into the faction fans know today. Brodie Lee is their leader, and Anna Jay remains the only official female member.
While speaking to AEW Unrestricted, Jay explained why the Dark Order is such a perfect fit for her. Not only are there plenty of people she can ask advice from, but it also feels like she has brothers backstage, a feeling she’s used to.
“I feel like I have a bunch of brothers backstage. I grew up with two brothers, and it’s kind of like [Dark Order] really fits me, and it’s great having them in the back. First off, they’re hilarious! Plus, I can always ask them for advice, you know a lot of them obviously have a lot more experience than I do—Brodie especially and John Silver, too. I think he’s been wrestling for 15 years.”
Anna Jay is set to get a greater focus in AEW’s second year. We’ll have to see if she ends up getting another AEW Women’s World Title shot, but Anna Jay is just getting started with the Dark Order.
