Really underrated stable in my opinion & would have liked to have seen the Stable be involved in a few more storylines with guys and girls up towards the main event level of the roster.
Steven Richards played his role extremely well as did The Goodfather, Bull Buchanan, Val Venis and Ivory. I'd have put Victoria in the stable too as she and Richards had chemistry together and she could have done the role perfectly although Ivory did very well.
Any of you guys & girls feel the same regarding the stable and have any fond memories of their time in the WWE?

Loved Stevie and the RTC were great.
For the group to have any longevity, I think they need to change/evolve the music.
I know it was intended to get heat but christ did that get old fast.

I really hated them and wanted to see them get their arses kicked.
So in that respect they succeeded as a heel stable.

RTC were New Prudes in a loose mood.
They reformed two degenerates, namely Godfather and The Big Valboski. Good on them.

Eh, Stevie was awesome in his role, as was Ivory.
The rest were a collection of guys who by that point, had lost a ton of credibility.

Looking back on things now, Stevie was such a good hand. Decent in the ring and he was an excellent mouthpiece for the group and eventually KroniK (but we know what happened there).

Having always been a huge fan of Ivory I'm glad she had a platform to stand out from everyone else, and she was born for the role.

Val Venis went from Porn Star to Uptight Activist.
Only RTC could pull his off.
I only wish he went under Sean Morley and Goodfather went under Charles Wright, their real names when they joined RTC.

Stevie Richards > Bray Wyatt
And remember when they had Ivory try to wrestle in heeled boots? She twisted her ankle and was immediately back to normal ones. Who thought that was a good idea?

Went to a Smackdown that also filmed Heat that night. That "theme" was all over the place that night. Very annoying.
Stevie played the role as best as he could, and in theory it was a good idea. The problem was, they were so ineffectual they never looked like a threat

Legit one of the best stables ever.
Sadly the were victims of the awful 2001 Undertaker and split up.

They wanted a more PG product, and the entire company did it. They were just playing the long game... |

Their theme was awesome.
Ivory was perfect in that faction

The fact they actually recruited and had success added so much. Stevie was actually intimidating in RAC at times. Stevie! Intimidating!

I hated them so much as a kid because they were based on who I saw as very real villains (aka "Think of the Children!!!" groups like the Parents Television Council and the like). In that way, they were incredibly effective heels.
