#2 Raven on AEW Dynamite

Remember when The Dark Order was wreaking havoc in AEW? The group was first introduced as a modern-day Ministry of Darkness. At the time, references were constantly made to The Exalted One, the supreme leader of The Dark Order.

For the most part, this mystery box mechanism worked from a booking standpoint. Fans were intrigued that the group could have a big star as the mysterious leader. AEW indulged this idea by throwing 'red herrings' to keep fans guessing.

On an episode of AEW Dynamite, Raven was seen sitting quietly as Scorpio Sky tackled Stu Grayson. Fans were buzzing that Raven was The Exalted One but was booked to distract the fans.

Raven knows a lot about 'Dark' factions. He formed Raven's Nest in ECW and created a similar faction in WCW called The Flock. Raven eventually joined WWE where he became a 27-time Hardcore Champion.

Raven even had a stint in the early days of TNA/IMPACT Wrestling, where he formed The Gathering, which included a young CM Punk. In an interview recently, Punk credited Raven as one of his first mentors in the business.

Raven has a storied history in pro-wrestling. It made sense for AEW to use that to their advantage during the early days of The Dark Order.
