After his sad passing at the end of 2020, AEW and its fans have taken every opportunity to honor the memory of a beloved figure in the wrestling world. It was confirmed fairly early into development that AEW Fight Forever would feature Lee in his “Mr Brodie Lee” persona as the head of the Dark Order faction, but he’s not immediately available on the roster.
Instead, you have to unlock him by playing a specific path of the Road to Elite mode, so we’ll show how to play as Brodie Lee.
How to unlock Brodie Lee – AEW Fight Forever
To fight Brodie Lee you must beat him, and to get the opportunity to beat him, you must complete the “Join the Dark Order” storyline, which is block 2B.
Which storyline blocks you get is somewhat random, but you can influence it by winning or losing key matches, however, the following path is the one that gave us the most success in finding the Dark Order:
- Play as a male wrestler
- Win the Casino Battle Royale at Double or Nothing
- Lose the AEW World Championship match at All Out
This storyline involves you competing for the TNT Championship, so if you are already AEW World Champion or Women’s Champion, you can’t get this storyline. You’ll know you’re on the right path if the “Road to Full Gear” screen says “Join the Dark Order”.
Once you’re on that path, the choices you make don’t matter. Whether you say yes or no to joining the Dark Order, you’ll end up facing The Exalted One in a match at Full Gear. Win that match and Brodie Lee will become purchasable in the in-game store for 30,000 bucks – you’ll find him in the same place that you can unlock Cody Rhodes and Aubrey Edwards.
