Information About

Stable (professional Wrestling)




One of the most famous stables in wrestling history was The Four Horsemen , a stable in Jim Crockett Promotions and World Championship Wrestling , originally formed in 1986 by Ric Flair , the Anderson Brothers ( Arn and Ole ), and Tully Blanchard . Among the great wrestlers who would, at some point, be members of The Four Horsemen were Sting , Lex Luger , Sid Vicious , Chris Benoit , Dean Malenko and Steve McMichael . They would feud with other stables--from the "Dudes With Attitudes" to the nWo--throughout WCW's history before their final breakup in 1999 .

Typically, the use of the term is restricted to groups that exist within the scripted storylines of a promotion. One of the more famous groups of wrestlers in recent times, The Clique of WWF in the mid- 1990s , is more accurately called a "backstage group", because the WWF never directly acknowledged the group's existence in its storylines. However, several members of the Clique did form the core of the promotion's D-Generation X stable.
