Gene Page/AMC Warning: There are spoilers ahead if you have not watched "The Walking Dead" season 8 premiere. "The Walking Dead" season eight premiere kicked off Sunday night, and the season wasted little time with Rick, Maggie, and Ezekiel bringing their communities to go to war with the bat-wielding Negan. One of the main players in this "All Out War" is Dwight (Austin Amelio), one of Negan's high-ranking Saviors, who appeared to switch sides at the end of season seven.
