The Brood had a cool entrance, and produced Edge and Christian, but no way in hell are they the second greatest faction of all time, and better than both the nWo and the Four Horsemen. Not all that happy about DX being #1 either, but at least they did way more than The Brood.

The only memorable thing about The Brood was their entrance. They really don't deserve the #2 spot. As much as I like DX, I don't think they deserve #1 because of this question on my mind: "What impact did they make on wrestling?"

Rick Rude was in 4 of the 10 factions on the list. Rick Rude = GOAT.

Guess a bunch of Twilight fangirls did the voting. Stupid of WWE to even include The Brood in the top 10 to begin with. Why not put them with The Ministry? I don't think Gangrel was makin' any panties wet, haha. That said, if this is in anyway actually voted on by REAL people, people who also vote in elections, then, well, we need to eliminate democracy all together and just let politicians fight it out in Thunderdome. Whoever kills Master-blaster gets to be President. That'd be the only fair and just system.

A "perfect" list is not worth sharing. The best list generates discussion.
WWE - 1 IWC - 0

Ranking a stable that never achieved anything in the top ten is bad enough, but putting them at number 2 above factions like the f***ing Horsemen is outright trolling.

I mean, the Horsemen are the only faction in the WWE Hall of Fame. I'd like to think that they care more about that than a WWE Network show of lists 'voted by fans.' So yeah, the only people taking this personally are fans. I was more pleasantly surprised to see The Brood get such respect as it gives much more shine to not only Christian but also Gangrel, who was one of the most unique characters of the Attitude Era. So yeah, that was MY reaction. I didn't feel the need to angrily throw furniture around my house.

At least the punch in the gut, of DX being #1, isn't so bad after the kick to the groin, of The Brood being #2.

Where to start?
When i saw The Brood on the Countdown preview, i totally expected them to be #10. Then The Heenan Family came in. No problem with that. Then The Dangerous Alliance at #9. No problem as well. Nation getting some love at #8 got me happy for the rest of the Countdown, and during The Nation's part i forgot about The Brood. Then The Corporation, The Hart Foundation and Evolution came in, and i was expecting The Four Horsemen at #1.
Then...#4...The Four Horsemen? WHAT THE HELL?
I got totally pissed off because it was obvious, at least for me, that The Horsemen would be #1 or else i would call complete bs on the list. But then the nWo was a last save for a credible #1. Then they came at #3 and...WHAT THE F***? They put the Brood on front of the FOUR HORSEMEN and the NEW WORLD ORDER? I mean, D-Generation X at #1 is something that i'm not upset at all, but it ain't that credible #1 stable like the two i would put there. My top 3 would be The Four Horsemen, The nWo, then D-Generation X at #3. It would be something better, and The Brood at #10 with every other one being elevated 1 spot. I mean, The Brood was awesome, but their run was short and they did nothing to deserve such a high spot on the Countdown. Well, this Countdown ain't as bs as the Debuts one was, but then, the next Countdown needs to be a bit more credible, in my opinion.

The Brood, huh? I mean yes, that promo where they actually spoke was legendarily awful and they did have a cool entrance, but aside from that what exactly about them convinced fans to vote them into the number two spot? Did they really like Edge and Christian so much that they wanted to rig the poll in their favor? Is there a secret cult of Gangrel enthusiasts stuffing the ballot box? Did they put them there solely to see the reaction it would get?
So when we do the top 10 Supernatural Wrestlers countdown we can expect Kevin Thorn to rank way up there, I suppose.

Eh, its a countdown, and its fan voted. There are going to be some stupid rankings. I don't care where things place, as I just love watching the segments about the subject matter.
I'm far more annoyed at the disingenuous Summer Rae segments where it couldn't be more obvious that she's just reciting what she was told. Is it really that difficult to find someone that actually knows about the subject in question?

I think someone was trying to be cute with the Horsemen at #4. Haha, GET IT, there's FOUR of them at number FOUR? (I blame Mario and Fafa, but none of you would get that)
Although yeah, I don't get the Brood at #2. Is it because Christian and Edge moved on to bigger and better things? Because they looked cool? That's...really their only big impact, I guess.
DX at #1 isn't a surprise, but I don't think they needed to be so high on the list. Though yeah, they did kinda sorta influence the Attitude era, but that was the Shawn/Hunter/Chyna stuff, and everyone else was sort of just there for the ride. Not a bad thing, but everyone seemed to be appreciated in their roles.

Anyone else think The Brood only got number 2 because Attitude Era?
Might be why DX is #1, too.
