William Regal had a stable in the dying days of WWECW with Ezekial Jackson and Kozlov, The Ruthless Roundtable. [note: yes, I had to google it to remember the name]

Does anyone remember a website back in the day that listed nearly EVERY configuration of wrestlers that teamed together and assigned them the most absurd names? It was amazing and some of the team names were absolutely hilarious.

You want to talk "forgotten"? I'll give you "forgotten." How long did this last? I remember them forming on Smackdown back in 2011 and then coming out, but after that it was forgotten about. Then Primo and Epico were put with Rosa Mendes later on. They lasted like that one SD and had that fire finisher they used and that was it

I really wonder why this was scrapped so soon.

This reminds me how much I regret not buying a marked-down Absolution shirt on WWE Shopzone when I had a chance.

Brickhouse Brown's "Commission" in Memphis. He became "The Black Prince" and the stable was such a mishmash of guys, including early Tugboat having hiphop dance-offs with Rocky Johnson.

Here's a couple of TNA ones I found while scrolling through the Wikipedia category of their teams and stables:
Diamonds in the Rough (Simon Diamond, Trytan, Elix Skipper & David Young)
Disciples of the New Church (Father James Mitchell, Mike Awesome, Shane Douglas, Kobain (aka Flash Flanagan), Brian Lee, Malice (aka The Wall), Sinn (aka Kizarny), Slash (aka Wolfie D), Tempest (aka Crowbar) & Vampiro)
Helms Dynasty (Shane Helms, Andrew Everett & Trevor Lee (aka Cameron Grimes))
The Menagerie (Knux (aka Mike Knox, aka Quarter past Ten), Rebel (not Reba), Crazzy Steve & The Freak (aka Rob Terry))
Mexican America (Hernandez, Anarquia, Rosita (aka Zelina Vega) & Sarita)
The Revolution (James Storm, Abyss, Sanada (doing a Great Muta impersonator gimmick), Khoya (aka Mahabali Shera), Manik (aka TJP) & Serena Deeb)
TNA Front Line (AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Rhino, Team 3D, Christopher Daniels, MCMG, Lethal Consequences, Beer Money, ODB, Petey Williams & Eric Young)
World Elite (Eric Young, Doug Williams, Brutus Magnus (aka Nick Aldis), Kiyoshi, Homicide, Sheik Abdul Bashir (aka Shawn Daivari), Rob Terry & Kevin Nash)

World Elite Mexican America The Beat Down Clan The UnAmericans At least The Un-Americans were a decent heel stable for what they were. This was at the time when Christian was still a crybaby heel. Mexican America was weird because it felt too much like LAX. The ladies weren't even Mexican with Anarquia (currently known as Zelina Vega) is Puerto Rican, while I don't think Sarita was Hispanic at all (I could be wrong), not to mention is Canadian.

The ladies weren't even Mexican with Anarquia (currently known as Zelina Vega) is Puerto Rican, while I don't think Sarita was Hispanic at all (I could be wrong), not to mention is Canadian. Anaquia was actually the other guy in the stable. Zelina's name was Rosita. But yeah, I agree. All it did was make people miss LAX. And then when they DID reunite, nobody really cared cause nobody was watching TNA anymore. The Un-American's was a shit stable IMO and that's coming from a guy who enjoyed Christian, Test, Regal and Storm. It was just a massive waste of their talent. Regal was always so much better as a face or a goofy snobby heel. When he became a "Ruthless" serious heel, I never enjoyed it. Christian? He was also better as a goofy shithead heel. His 2005 run and his TNA run were his best work after E&C. As for Test... loved him as a face. IMO He could've easily been a main eventer after HHH stole Stephanie from him. But then he became forgotten about and cut his hair and ditched the leather pants - Big mistake. His ECW run is best not talked about cause the guy was roiding like crazy and from what I hear, was being a real prick in the ring and backstage at this time. Lance Storm was never gonna be a main eventer but his lack of charisma could've been his own special kind of charisma and they never really capitalized on that. "If I could be serious for a minute..." was a great opening line. He could've probably faced off against guys like Angle or Benoit in the Invasion storyline and been seen as a credible threat. But WWE just made a joke out of him.

UnAmericans got to work with Hogan. I think they were pretty cool with that. And yeah, Mexican America was low-rent LAX. I get to a degree why TNA tried so hard to have main event Hernandez be a thing, but it was only maybe marginally more successful than Matt Morgan, main eventer.
