If he came out with Erik Redbeard and Brodie King (who I think would be a great replacement for the mobile big man role, and also was let go of his contract), this would be a great stable in AEW to capitalize on the Wyatt Family's success. There is still much cache to the character, and I believe most AEW fans would want to see some sort of off-shoot from that with Wyndam Rotunda. You only need to look as far as both Brodie Lee and Miro to figure out that their success in AEW is based on a pre-established character type that works well (Miro had to go through that awful gamer gimmick first, but the Redeemer is pure money).
I wouldn't go so far as to say they should be in the Dark Order (I don't think that fits anymore), but with the general dissipation of both Inner Circle and the Pinnacle, I think there's room for one more stable of guys with an actual dark twist.
I'd love to see some angle with Rotunda in a stable where he's wooing Darby Allin to the dark side, Sting is his voice of reason not to do it, but Rotunda's charm is just too much. He's best being a creepy horror character.
