EVOLUTION - Like I said, I feel that Evolution is swirling down the drain. The reason for this is that they went from the rumored resurrection of the IV Horsemen, but quickly became a rebirth of the Natural Born Thrillaz. This can be dubbed as "Jeff Hardy Syndrome" (read my "State Of RAW" article for the joke), or JHS. This occurs when a wrestler or stable is bound for greatness, but stumbles and lands on it's face just before getting to the top.

THE FULL-BLOODED ITALIANS - This one is another stable that was supposed to buy fame from an older stable. But, sadly, all we have here is a mockery of what was once an entertaining stable. About the only think that these Goodfellas wannabes have going for them is that they are feuding with the Undertaker.

Honestly, look at it. They have Nunzio (the only original member of the FBI) being teamed with Johnny "The Bull" Stamboli (who is useless without Big Vito) and Chuck Palumbo (who seems to be lost without Billy) pretending to be tough guys. As you can see, I don't buy it. In fact, I haven't heard any positive comments about this new rehash of the FBI, only that the fans wish it never existed.

THE DUDLEY BOYZ - What can be said here that hasn't already been uttered by fans. Most fans are sick of the Dudleyz. Think about it, they were once one of the coolest stables in ECW (but, since there were very few stables, that's understandable), amassing a slew of "brothers" and "cousins" (among them, Bubba Ray, D-Von, Dances With Dudley, Dudley Dudley, Little Spike Dudley, Big Dick Dudley, & Sign Guy Dudley, just to name a few). But, when they came to the WWE, their numbers dwindled to a mere two (three after Spike joined later on). From here, they never really got over with the fans.

D-GENERATION X - Most of the sheep in the chat rooms clamor for the return of DX. Now, I was a fan of them back in the day, but I don't want to see them come back. The reason for this is the fact that they have been brought back so many times it isn't funny.

Look, almost the day it died the first time, Triple H reformed the group. This was the most popular set-up. But, over time, the team broke up and started feuding with each other. This eventually led to a "Winner Wins The Right To The Name D-Generation X" match pitting X-Pac and the Road Dogg against Mr. Ass and Chyna. Most people don't remember this too much, mainly because it was painfully boring.

Then, months later, Vince was desperate for a storyline, so re once more dusted off DX for another heel run. This time, DX was joined by Tori and were just laughably bad. This new DX was a lot like those "Gilligan's Island" movies that were made years after the show was done. Not funny or cool, just plain boring.

THE FOUR HORSEMEN - Another favorite of the sheep. But, this one is an even worse idea to bring back.

Just as a little piece of trivia, Evolution was originally supposed to be the latest incarnation of the Four Horsemen. The thing that none of the pinheads in the chat rooms seem to grasp is that the Horsemen have gone through their paces enough times. They have had more member changes than KISS (I'm a huge KISS fan, so trust me when I say that they have seen many members), and most of the fans demanding the Horsemen's return only want it for Flair and Arn.

Don't get me wrong, the Four Horsemen were legends. But, I feel that the group was officially dead when Curt Hennig turned on the Horsemen after Arn Anderson had given him "his spot" on the team. Soon, the Horsemen were officially a rotting deer on the highway when Steve "Mongo" McMichael joined. I swear, nothing says 'dead and buried' like Mongo on your team. Just ask the Packers or the Bears.

THE NEW WORLD ORDER - Ah, the nWo. The one stable that has been remade so many times that it is just boring even thinking about it anymore. I feel that anyone who wants the new World order back in any capacity should be drug out into rush hour traffic and disemboweled with a dull butter knife. It doesn't get any worse than this.

Alright, so the nWo was cool the first two years or so, but no stable (excluding the Four Horsemen) can last forever. Soon, there were two groups of the nWo. We had nWo Hollywood (Black & White) and the nWo Wolfpac (Red & Black). While this lead to some decent feuding between the two factions, that was about the only real thing WCW had going for them at the time (thus the reason the WCW/nWo PPV titles lasted for a while). Soon, two factions remained, but now we had the Black & White (or, the B team) and the Black & Red (yes, the Wolfpac was dead, but the colors stayed for Hogan & Nash's new team).

Now, Black & Red died fast. But, the Black & White lasted a little while longer. WCW milked all the "leadership fighting" between the B&W members until they could milk no more. Sadly, Stevie Ray, Vincent, and all their nWo B&W buddies died a slow death career wise.

But, the lamest was yet to come. When Vincent Kennedy McMahon was in desperate need to bring in something "like-fresh", he turned to the group that almost killed his competition. Bringing back Hall, Nash, and Hogan, the nWo faced it's lamest time ever. Bringing back The Big Show and X-Pac to the fold, signing up Stevie Ray's brother, Booker T., as well as bringing in Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels, we saw the most slapped together group of the nWo since the Black & Silver.

Nothing with the newest nWo seemed to click with fans. When the nostalgia wore off, fans still had to suffer with this boring team.

THE DANGEROUS ALLIANCE - Well, Paul E. Dangerously had himself a real winning team with the original Dangerous Alliance in 1992, honestly. He had "Stunning" Steve Austin, "Ravishing" Rick Rude, "The Crusher" Larry Zbyszko, "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton, and "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson. This team dominated WCW while the Horsemen were in one of their dormant periods. They even had great feuds with Sting, Ricky Steamboat, and The Steiner Brothers. What could have happened to make such a winning team fall?

Well, nothing really. The team disbanded after about a year and a half. But, the Dangerous Alliance wasn't really dead.

Late into their run, the dying ECW (which was owned by Paul E. Dangerously, technically) saw a new Dangerous Alliance, now managed by Lou E. Dangerously. Among the memorable members of this new DA were Simon Diamond & Johnny Swinger. Sadly, this forgettable Dangerous Alliance died when ECW died. Most ECW fans have blocked this horrid memory (as well as most of ECW's "TNN Period") from their minds.
