New Idea For A Stable

[BillAlfonso]

This is my first thread so if I'm screwing up, let me know.

Here's my idea:

First, the stable will break that magical 4 person limit, up to about 10 people. Second, have all of the guys dress alike but with their own flare to it. Third, here's where the storyline I envision for them. Since there's 10 people they correspond to a the same number of titles in the WWE, 1 WWE Champ, 1 WHC, 1 ECW Champ, 1 IC Champ, 1 US Champ, 1 Women's Champ, 1 Diva's Champ, 2 Tag Champs, 1 misc Champ(bring back the cruiserweight, hardcore, european, or the television champ for ECW). Now, here's where the storyline comes in, have it stated that somehow each of the championships gives you a piece of control in the company and all of the championships together eith equals or outweighs the McMahon Family's power in the company, I'll leave that for your imagine come up with how that's implemented and for creative screw up. Now, for the group/members, I want the group to consist of a diverse group of guys, if they hate each other that only makes it better because it adds on to the importance of the stable's goals, it's so important that they put their differences aside. Also I want them to operate in twos so that there'll always be backup and across all three shows, one person's targeted championship might be on Raw but the person they operate with's championship is on ECW and so on, also the have to compliment each other in the ring with their diversity, like a technical wrestler with a power wrestler or a brawler with highflier so that their opponents won't know which way to go or something like that. I want them to have reasons for doing the things their doing, like one person is trying to spread a to the publice and they think that pro wrestling is the stage to do that, one person is doing it for ideology, one person is doing it soley for money, one person is doing it for spite, one person is doing it to spread his religion to the sinners in the backstage and in the audience, and one person is doing it just because. Now for their leader, I want their leader to be a guy from the WWE's past that's been screwed over, I had Bret Hart in mind but I want a guy that can still go in the ring and I want him to be behind the scenes and slowly come to the forefront. Lastly, I want them to be legitimately damn near unstoppable. I don't mean can't be beaten, but whomever faces them as to be 100% on their A game and still win by the skin of their teeth. I want them to be superserious but with one guy for comic relief. That's all I can think of right now, I'll add more as I remember. Nothing's set in stone, I just want opinions on the idea and my post, please, I'm still learning. See ya, Space Cowboy.

I like it, but it seems too much. I think if the McMahons were in control of the stable, it might work out better. Have them hand pick their Champions, much like the New Blood in WCW. I wouldn’t add more Titles then they already have, but a change I would make is to unify all the Titles exactly the same way as they did the Tag Titles, by holding them both (or all three in the case of the World Titles) and not getting rid of one or the other. So, the Championships and their respective holders, in my scenario, would be:

Unified WWE / World /ECW Champion: Triple H
Unified Intercontinental / United States Champion: Shawn Michaels (or MVP just to have youth)
Unified WWE World Tag Team Champions: World’s Greatest Tag Team
Unified Women’s / Divas Champion: Gail Kim
Manager: Ric Flair

I’d have Vince first introduce them and then slowly fade to the background, leaving Shane or Steph run the shows, Ric managing the Stars during matches and of course, make them all Heels eventually and flaunt power.

 

[Greenlight13]

I dunno about this. On the one hand I like the visual of Vince, Shane and Steph in the ring handing out the titles to their favourites. On the other, awarding a title weakens its value. Then again the titles are quite weak these days anyway so I guess it isn't that impossible an idea.

Just my gut says it would be met with incredible backlash, overloading a stable with every single title is rarely that interesting. I know everyone loved Evolution but I hated it when they had every belt on Raw personally, so I don't know how I'd take to this similar idea... though if it was a proper tag team rather than Flair and Batista I guess I'd be more open to it. Just seems that the resistance to them would have impossible odds to overcome, even John Cena couldn't contend with 10 champions AND the McMahons surely.

It might work better if it were just done on Raw as the GM position is open. Whoever takes it could impliment something like this even if it was on a temporary basis. But then again The Legacy already hold all the male titles, so we're only short of a second generation female wrestler other than Natalya joinging them from it being a reality.

Just seems an awfully big gamble to take. We haven't had a storyline that affected the entire roster in quite some time. I know The Invasion was a failure compared to what people wanted but I personally quite liked it, one giant story with dozens of intertwining ones keeping it together, might be nice to see something like that again.

 

[King Patrick Star]

Just to clarify, I never said have the McMahons hand their hand-picked Champions the Titles. I meant, pick their contenders, help them cheat to win and BOOM, the Golden Stable is born.

 

[WOLFPACK0524]

The stable sounds okay to me but at this point of the game, what is the motivation to make one? I see your reasoning for all of the members but really? If there were 10 in the stable, that is more than the active ECW roster. I would, as others suggested, combine the titles and then go on from that point to have the "Big Boys" try and take over. It is a take on the MEM but here is what I think would work.

Truly hype up the big boys club. HHH, HBK, Cena, Batista and (for a shocker) Orton with Flair. After solidified in the WWE, they all take out Flair. Then have MVP begin to be "THE" face of the WWE and get a stable to counteract them. The "underappreciated" and the fight is for Main Event Status. Since the stories I have heard has been that the "Big Boys" keep the Main event for themselves, why not exploit it. MVP, Rhodes & Dibiase (after a turn by Orton when one of Legacy tries to get involved in a main event) Big Show and Rey.

This can go into all shows and be a struggle for dominance. this will culminate into Survivor Series and the winning team gets control of the major unified belts. Unified WHC, US, IC and Unified Tag.

This will, of course, NEVER happen. Just something to ponder since it seems the Internet Wrestling Community seems to have some better creative ideas than those in WWE creative.

That's what I forgot to add, I want it to be a mix of wrestlers from WWE's past(example RVD), some comletely new wrestlers, and some underground wrestlers that have some history with some of the wrestlers already on the roster.(example Teddy Hart and his history with CM Punk, that altercation the Sabu had to break up). Dealing the McMahons, I either envision them either not really involved or as faces, I think heel McMahons is a predictable and outdated concept.

I don't want them all to win every title, I just want them all , win or lose, to look like they were damn near invincible and that whomever defeated them had to pull out all of the stops to defeat them. What I mean is that when the match is over, I want the winner, no matter who it is, to look like shit. Like they might as well have lost the match. The impossible odds adds to the drama, you can't tell me that when the NWO seem like they couldn't be beaten that it didn't make you want to tune to see who would give it a shot and John Cena wouldn't be taking on the entire stable on his own, just the person targeting his particular championship. Now eventually when it becomes clear what the stable is trying to accomplish, a counter stable might develop but all of the matches would be one on one until the champion they're targeting makes it eitherwise, like Orton or Edge. That's another thing that I forgot to add, not all of them would be heels. Some of them would be face and some 'tweeners, the only common ground is their goal as a unit.

I would have them spread out on each show. That's another thing that I forgot mention, each two man team acts like their own cell, they'd rarely get involved with each other and then it'd only be a few words. We might see them together like once a month or something to get any orders from the leader of the group but their only purpose for being anywhere is for their targeted championship. Hell, we might see one particular wrestler once for a whole month, just know that they're lurking.

[ronjoewill16]

oh ho ho! a good new stable.

get edge his rematch for the hw title, have him lose. have him come out on smackdown and say whats next, theres nothing for me now. have big pappa christian come out and say hes on smackdown, and hes tired of edges bitching. they tussle. have edge face someone that night (punk, hardy, morrison), and christian come out and attack the face. edge says i do have something! family! and end the show with those two celebrating. the next week, have edge and christian come out and talk about family bonds. morrison and punk or hardy or some pair like that comes out and challenges them to a match. but during the show we see one of the faces knocked out. people think edge or christian did it. later, teddy long, or whoever is gm on smackdown, decides to punish jericho for some action he did earlier with rey. or puts him in a match even though jericho is injured and says i cant wrestle tonight. e and c run into y2j backstage and they have awesome heat. i dont like you. im forced to be in the same ring with you. blah blah. main event, e and c are waiting in the ring for their opponents. punk or hardy or morrison and y2j. end of match, y2j betrays his partner. grins at the titantron. gets on the mic, does his thing, says i fooled all of you. him and e and c all stand in the ring unified.
the two best heels in the business and christian.

the reason? canada. thats it. just canada.

why not use all three brands and use King Regal to rule them all.

King---Regal
Queen--Maryse
Duke of Raw--Randy Orton
Duke of ECW--Jack Swagger
Duke of Smackdown--Edge or Punk.
Court Jester of all 3- Santino---he must wear the hat 2 times on each show
The Earls of Tags --Rhodes and Dibiase


Right there is 7 people all pulled from all three brands and they can have their own group on each brand---ECW would need 2 or 3 in theirs or just keep using others to cross over until it is completed.

Finally Vince would create his own group to stop King Regal but pulls the biggest swerve when he and Cena join the King and they both Kiss Regals ASS.

So you would have regal as the leader over randy orton, edge or punk, vince, and john cena. I don't really see that working out to well.

IMO I would unify the belts like others have said make the group like this...

WWE/WH champion: HHH
IC/US champ: Jericho
Tag champs: Edge and Christian
Womens champ: Maryse
That would be the heels. If I was making a face stable I would do it like this...

WWE/WH champ: Cena
IC/US champ: Jeff Hardy
Tag champs: Punk and Morrison
Womens champ: Mickie James

With the heels you have all power hungary stars who have been at the top before and will do anything to stay there. Plus they know how to make the crowd hate them.

With the faces you have the crowd favorites with jeff and punk plus the all around talent with morrison and the top man in the business with cena. Not to mention that mickie is one of like 3 divas with even the slightest bit of talent. I also believe that if both stabels were created and put into a fued it would alow all three shows to be involved with each shows stars being incorperated in the stabels. But all that is just my opinion.

I like this Face / Heel stables. They both could work and could trade Titles back and forth for at least a few months, specifically the months between Summer Slam and Survivor Series ending with a “Winner Take All” match, details of course would need to be worked out, but you get the point.
