I wouldn't be a massive fan of a British faction to be honest. I hate gimmicks that are based solely on nationality.
Plus you know they'd be heels. You know, not being American and all.

I think its cool that there are so many future megastars from the Britain/Ireland area right now in the WWE, like Sheamus (former WWE Champ), McItyre (former IC Champ), and Barret (NXT Winner). Maybe they should form a stable called the British Invasion managed by The Lyrical Gangster himself William Regal But its only the non talented wrestlers from the UK who keep getting pushed. Sheamus, and McIntyre are charismatic as an empty cup. When Sheamus is not feuding the HHH, the ratings always go down as soon as he is on TV. Incorrect....FELLA. |

Drew is Scottish isn't he? Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland make up Britain. Thank you for that. I (and I'm sure plenty of my fellow Americans) always thought "Britain" was a synonym for England, while the group of countries you mentioned make "The United Kingdon." Britain and UK are the same thing, then? (I know that all sounds smarmy and sarcastic, at least to me, but I'm totally serious. Can't find a better want to put it. Or maybe I'm just being paranoid. lol) |

We're weird like that)  The Republic of Ireland (the non-coloured bit) is its own individual country. |

Also, yeah Sheamus is from The Republic of Ireland which is not part of the UK... and depending on who you say it to calling them British could get you killed Finlay however could be a part of the British stable as he is from Northern Ireland. |

Just to confuse things completely, there are also the differences between Great Britain and the British Isles. Basically; GB is GB, whereas the British Isles also incorporates the Republic of Ireland and various island crown dependencies which are ruled by the British Monarch, but not by the British government. Simple really.  |

Sheamus - improved on his mic skills, but besides that Side Slam Backbreaker and the Razor's Edge, he is boring to watch
McIntyre - Can't wrestle or talk. Everyone of his opponents had to carry him to a decent match. All he does his punch x 20 resthold, clothesline x 3, punch x 10, dirty tactic, ddt.
Wade Barrett - Loads of charisma and an average wrestler.
Out of the relatively fresh wrestlers from Britian/Ireland, TNA has the best with Douglas Williams and Desmond Wolfe.

Drew is Scottish isn't he? Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland make up Untied Kingdom. Fixed. Great Britian is the Island that encompasses Scotland, Wales, and England. The UK is the countries of the above stateent that I fixed. |

I think we should have a stable of random Americans thrown together who have absolutely nothing in common, just because they come from the same country. And add some Mexicans and Canadians because they're from neighbouring countries. Thank you for that. I (and I'm sure plenty of my fellow Americans) always thought "Britain" was a synonym for England, while the group of countries you mentioned make "The United Kingdon."

Northern Ireland isn't part of Great Britain, as Barley96 says Great Britain is the big Island on the right. |

Going by Wikipedia: If you want to take Wikipedia as gospel: Great Britain is an island situated to the northwest of Continental Europe. It is the ninth largest island in the world, and the largest European island. With a population of about 59.6 million people in mid-2008, it is the third most populated island on Earth. Great Britain is surrounded by over 1,000 smaller islands and islets. The island of Ireland lies to its west. Politically, Great Britain may also refer to the island itself together with a number of surrounding islands which comprise the territory of England, Scotland and Wales. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Britain |
