Stables are bad but Triple H career was floundering as Connecticut Blue Blood. It was until he associated with HBK then former DX he started to shine.
When HBK was injured, he took the reigns of DX and ran with it.
IF we apply your logic, every heel who has ever gone over in the history of wrestling buried someone else.
Great Khali buried undertaker in his debut.
Undertaker career suffered due to that burial😭.

The career success of Seth, Roman and Ambrose will forever be tied to the Shield. It was a successful launchpad for their careers same with Evolution for Orton and Batista.
You wan mention AJ Styles, Balor, Kenny omega and Young Bucks careers no call Bullet Club then you be Johnny Just Come Wrestling fan.

You want to talk about Ambrose holding the US title hostage. Let's not pretend like that midcard title was a prestigious belt at the time. I even forgot Sheamus had a run with that belt after winning the battle royale to win it from Dean.
It wasn't until Rusev and Cena's run that the belt was given prominence.
One of the biggest moments in that authority era was Cody and Goldust winning the tag belts from the shield. I dare say it's still the crowning point of Goldust career in the WWE.

Say what you want about Big E and Kofi booking as champions but they held wins over Orton, Lashley, Owens, Mcintyre, Rollings. abi you dn get amnesia? Both of their reigns ended at the hands of Brock, the most dominant wrestler ever.
Xavier Woods has been saying for years that his dream was to become the king of the ring. Didn't he achieve that?

If it was easy to just dominate everyone and be a successful stable then explain Why Nexus who were beating the whole Raw Roster in their debut failed
Isn't the Death Riders which the AEW Champion Moxley belongs to an offshoot Blackpool Combat Club? abi no be the same BCC Bryan Danielson dey when he win the Owen Hart tournament and eventually the AEW Championship?
Valee i dn argue to point I dey defend Nazi Stable😩.
You said there's nothing for stables to fight for?
NJPW has the six man tag belts which AEW took a leaf from and made the trios title.

Yes, HHH started getting an uplift in his career after joining DX, a heel stable and burying others, thats my point. This is how it works, a heel stable goes about exerting dominance and attacking people, winning matches which individually they couldn't - that's burial. And the excuse is character (bad guys) and numbers. You may not understand this now, and that's okay, I only want you to give this theory a chance. If all The Shield did was go and have tag matches and escort eachother to the ring for singles, would they have risen in heights. Names like Kane, DB (thank God the Yes movement saved him), Ryback were their victims. They also got to touch guys like Sheamus, Taker and Rocky. The midcard guys were victimised too. That's the formula man.

Big E and Kofi had wins and barely impacted. Kofi had the lowest draw of a world champion in recent times. Big E wasn't dominant. That's not the first time WWE feed big names to smaller wrestlers to put them over and it flops. But yes, New Day was a great tag team, but part of that success was this heel stable thing I'm talking about. I could recall tag team matches were they inserted themselves in 3 to win it. It's not ridiculous for a heel stable.

Nexus. Lol. John Cena happened to them. Summer slam was the crowning moment and you know the story.

BCC; this is where I need you to differentiate between individual success and group. Bryan was going to win that belt, stable or not, he's Bryan. But as a Stable, was BCC as dominant as Elite or Inner Circle? Be honest. It's not even as dominant as Death Riders and people hate them so bad.
I answered the Elite question, it just didn't send. It's simple, Bullet club became big as a heel stable, doing the same thing I talked about. The Elite were part of that stable and became big also. While they turned babyface they had already grown big and that reflected in their status even individually.

Trios titles, just 1 problem, what if there are more than 3? That's the point. Can stables be sustained with belts of any number? But if stables can be coming only in 3s and only in AEW, and other companies not WWE, then no problem; if not, there's still one.

ehen now. Continue with the thirst comments my people. This is what we'll get. Unserious people in the wrestling business who don't even know why they're there. They come for a fight looking like they're going for Red Carpet; expensive hairdo, makeup and all. On top of that they're so lewdly looking I don't pity them 1 bit in Saudi Arabia. Ladies don't look that way in Olympics, Amateur wrestling or MMA, even in sport combat movies (just incase we want to defend it as entertainment). Nonsense.

Thats why you need to broaden your point of view.
Cora getting cut wasn't due to posting thirst pics. She was injury prone and had regressed in ring.
Dakota Kai was also injury prone.
Shayna Bazler and Sonya deville who don't wear skimpy attires were also cut.
I don't think using Saudi Arabia with its strict dress code for women is a fair point. Even Deeper life women no go pass their dress code.
Besides when last did we post thirst comments here my guy?

You know that some MMA fighters and even Olympians also have OnlyFans accounts, right? Turns out that gooners usually pay more than niche sports. Heck, even Toni Storm had one.

ValeeLove:
of course. It makes them money, but their craft end up suffering.

Who is this guy?

So Cena will be feuding with R-Truth now?🤭🤭🤭

samistry:
R-truth was only looking out for his childhood hero

samistry:
Jeff Cobb, long tenured wrestler in njpw.
He also had a run in lucha underground as matanza. He's pretty good.

pu7pl3:
I looked him up
I like what I see...is he Samoan?

samistry:
Not sure but could be pacific islander. He's gonna do great as long as he doesn't bronson Reed himself from top of a steel cage

RIP Sabu.

Not sure it was a contributing factor but people are taking about the nasty bump he took on concrete in his last match against Joey Janela two weeks ago in GCW.

I wish more wrestlers knew when to stop.

samistry:
Joey Janela is just the worst

samistry:
so showing skin diminishes their ability? 🤔

If you read the article, you'll understand why Joey Janela and Brett Lauderdale (owner of GCW) are dumbass pieces of shit.

Quotes from the article:

Context: Sabu has bad knees and can't walk

"What do you mean Sabu can't walk? They said, ‘Yeah, Sabu, something with his knee — they're locked up. He can't walk. And his feet are bleeding. He's not coming. Sabu's not coming.’ I said, ‘Sabu's f***ed.’ So we talked to [indie wrestler] Matt Tremont, and Tremont is about to be the replacement for the match. And I feel like this is going to be the most embarrassing moment of my wrestling career. There's 2,000 people here. This is one of the biggest Spring Breaks ever. The biggest crowd ‘Mania weekend, indie-wise. And I'm going to have to go out there and announce that Sabu, once again, no-showed. And no-showed his own retirement match.”


“We are an hour into the show and I said, ‘Just get Sabu here," Janela continued. "So they gave him something called kratom. You can buy it at a smoke shop or something; it’s like a legal opiate or something. They said, ‘He's hopping on the bed, he's hopping off the bed, and we're going to get him to the show.’ So he shows up two hours into the show. Sabu was on a different fing planet. Everyone in the backstage was like, ‘What the f? Is this match going to happen?’ And my God, did it happen.”

Context: After Sabu takes a bump on concrete

“He was definitely out cold. He was done," Janela said. "They were telling me there was no way. The refs were communicating to me that there's no way he's continuing this match.

“Like holy s***, that is the one time you want the barbed wire to stop you. He just blew right through it."

“And then [old ECW rival] The Sandman came out and that was all Sabu needed, then the resurrection happened. Jesus resurrected two days later, the anniversary … couldn't f***ing believe it, dude. He was ready to go again. I guess that concussion knocked him back into 1996 or something, I don't know.”


"Everything that happened in that match, happened for a reason,” Janela told Uncrowned on Sunday.
