5 dream matches for Bray Wyatt in AEW

#1. Hangman Page - AEW

So, for the non (or lapsed) wrestling fans, I'm going to explain why this guy is at the centre of the greatest, most agonising, most wholesome pro-wrestling story in years. And it's a story that's about to hit the home stretch. pic.twitter.com/8RMOYMKXJr

Immediately following Bray Wyatt's WWE release, many fans pointed to AEW as his likely destination after his non-compete clause was up. With speculation of his arrival in All Elite Wrestling, this caused talk of what role he could play in the current landscape of AEW.

Bray Wyatt has teased the creation of a Kult of Windham wherever he heads to next. The Wyatt Family is among the greatest cult gimmicks in wrestling history. A group consisting of Bray Wyatt, Erick Rowan and Luke Harper immediately stood out for their haunting promos and portrayals of backwoods and bearded beasts who could maul a person at a moment's notice.

There is already a resident cult that has gained popularity despite their much maligned beginnings. The Dark Order debuted for AEW at Double Or Nothing 2019 to "Who Are You?" chants. Evil Uno and Stu Grayson were surrounded by masked minions that just didn't look intimidating at all.

After their awful attack on the Young Bucks and SCU on the December 18th, 2019 episode of Dynamite, the group was considered dead in the water. However, the arrival of Brodie Lee in AEW as the leader of the Dark Order a few months later led to a turnaround for the faction.

Brodie's TNT Championship win over Cody Rhodes gave the Dark Order more notriety than they ever had before then. For that one night, they looked like the most dominant stable in AEW and rode that momentum from there on out. The group continued to become more popular through their antics on Being The Elite and started to become one of the most over acts in the promotion.

Brodie Lee's friendship with Bray Wyatt is no secret and the two men owe a lot of their success in WWE to one another. Following Lee's untimely passing, Bray was among the first superstars to send his condolences to his family and show love to his fallen brother. Bray's potential arrival in AEW has led to many fans wanting to see Wyatt take Brodie's place and become the new leader of the Dark Order.

Hangman Page and the Dark Order have created a deep bond with one another since Brodie Lee's passing. Their wholesome relationship has drawn love and support from the AEW fanbase. Page is seen as the group's de facto leader and would create quite a compelling story with Bray Wyatt.

A fight for the love of the Dark Order would be a new story to explore in AEW. The group that has recruited losers to be fought over by two top stars would further elevate the faction. Hangman Page is one of, if not the most popular stars in All Elite Wrestling, so Bray Wyatt has the perfect opponent to be the dastardly, charismatic heel that he is outstanding at being.

Bray Wyatt has a surplus of excellent competitors to feud with and match up with in All Elite Wrestling. From their established talent to future stars, there is no wrong direction that he could go with the company. With his history with Brodie Lee and cults as well as the need for a top babyface star as an opponent, Hangman Page may be the biggest dream match for Bray Wyatt in AEW.
