What are some stables ,groups and factions that dwindled to 1 or 2 members and may of even teamed together a bit afterwards
Dungeon Of Doom.
by the end it was just Jimmy Hart managing the faces of fear
The Heenan Family
always alot of members but by wrestlemania 7 it was just Haku and Barbarian who teamed for a bit after Heenan retired
DX 2000 era
by summer Triple H was doing his own thing and DX just consisted of Road Dogg and X pac.
Nation of Domination
by the fall all that was left of The Nation was just D Lo and Mark Henry and they continued teaming into 1999
Main Event Mafia 2009
by the end it was Literally just Scott Steiner in it.
1 more examples to an extent would be Million Dollar Corporation by 1996 It was pretty much just tatanka and 123 kid with Dibiase as Ringmaster never really appeared with the other members
Even NWO Black and white by summer of 1999 was just vincent and Horace

Great Bash Heel in NJPW was a group that splintered due to the formation of CHAOS, if I recall. Only Honma stayed with Togi Makabe and thus the stable became a tag team.
For the WWF/WWE, there's Kaientai. The group feuded with TAKA, and then TAKA joined, and it became just him and Funaki, as all the other members left. This one isn't exactly an example, however, as the group has reformed a couple of times in Japan without Funaki.

I would say One Warrior Nation, but TBH, they never got above two.

Didn't Nexus eventually end up being Curtis Axle/David Otunga?

In a promotion full of stables with over five people (Dragongate), D'Courage only has three members.
And they all have belts.

This one isn't exactly an example, however, as the group has reformed a couple of times in Japan without Funaki. That's Kaientai DX, the original group, that has an additional member in Shiryu, aka Kaz Hayashi. (no Yamaguchi-san though. That one's on WWE) |

September 1988-January 1989.
After Tully & Arn leave for the WWF, Ric and Barry were the lone Horsemen remaining. (Yes, JJ Dillon managed.)
In late-January 1989, Kendall Windham brought it up to 3.

Virgil was doing independent shows representing the nWo long after even the WWE version was done. And per Colt Cabana Virgil would claim Hogan sent him to the Indy shows on "Official, NWO business" |

By 1993, Jimmy Hart's stable consisted of just Money Inc, and he wouldnt stay with them much longer.

When Raven left ECW in 1997, the Nest was down to Lupus and Chastity.
Nova and the Meanie continued the bWo long after Stevie left for WCW.

The Disciples of Apocalypse (DOA) started off as Crush, Chainz, Skull, and 8-Ball. Then when Brian Adams (Crush) left the WWF, it was just Chainz, Skull, and 8-Ball. Then after Brian Lee (Chainz) was released, the Harris Twins were the only ones left, and then Paul Ellering returned to be their manager.

Didn't Nexus eventually end up being Curtis Axle/David Otunga? Yeah and the Nexus basically ended because Jerry Lawler called their tag team dull and that they needed to be exciting like Zack Ryder lol |

When Raven left ECW in 1997, the Nest was down to Lupus and Chastity. Nova and the Meanie continued the bWo long after Stevie left for WCW. Taz beat Nova in a squash just a few days after Stevie showed up on Nitro. After the match, Joey Styles declared that it was the end of the BWO. Meanie and Nova disappeared for a months after that, then returned without the gimmick. |
