Every TLC with Sullivan is contractually obligated to have a moment where the video stops for 20 seconds for laughter
The Beauty and The Beast segment might be the best in the series right now.
Remember how DX buried the Spirit Squad sending them in a box back to OVW and years later Miz pointed out two of them went missing in transit? lol
What's crazy is, despite how big a pair of assholes HHH and HBK were in the original DX, they buried SO MANY people with their reformed Duo in the mid 2000s. Spirit Squad and Survivor Series alone was like 8 people
"Oh no I'm seeing the future, aren't I?" absolutely sent me.
Of course I remember who was in Retribution: it was Moose, T-Bone, Slapnutz, Reconquista, Royal Rumble, and Muhammad Ali.
This is easily the best TLC trio.
@@JoeR1066whats wrong with dan? Hes great!
Imagine they did a 1 Million Subscribers Special where they list the Top 10 TLC trios.
My #2 would be Luke, Pete, and Ace Trainer Liam.
TLC's best *faction*
Need moar Tempest; too much recency bias. Like, don't get me wrong, Nightmare Collective was ass, but it also lasted for a month on TV, if that long. Can it _really_ make the list considering it barely at up air time or careers?
Corporate Ministry, the Alliance, the Authority, the New Blood, Immortal, Pinnacle, nWo are the sort of things that qualify for "Worst Wrestling Faction of All Time."
Any trio with Sullivan is instantly better
Can't believe we've got to Beauty and the Beast from The Cabinet
And it works somehow !
"Who's Gaston?" HEIDENREICH
Love that the theme of this episode is "y'all didn't bury this enough..."
Just like the worst MITB cash-ins video 😂
“You just don’t like playing by rules” perfectly sums up various Luke entries. Hyphens, caveats, and technicalities. I love it though.
"Tri-monthly" and "BAP (Blank After PLE)" come to mind
@@waddledeez5084 After Mania/Wrestlemania. RAM & SAM. Just wait until NXT becomes included in that discussion. NAM.
And if you’re doing it Wrestlemania, then it’s RAW and SAW. NAW!
I still haven't gotten over him putting AJ Lee's theme on the wirst entrance songs list.
@@MistaTwigz meanwhile he didn't put Bastion Booger on at all because "I think it works for him!"
...Doesn't fucking matter if it does, that 'theme' is hot dogshit and its fucking insane Luke just didn't put it on his list at all.
@@MistaTwigz I stand with him on this one. It's a great theme, but it's not AJ Lee. She should have had a harder rock song.
OMFG Sullivan needs to be on all these TLC lists. They just devolve into chaos anytime he’s involved and I love it!
The JOB squad was awesome. Al Snow, Blue Meanie, Bob Holly, Gillberg, and (2 cold) Scorpio. Mankind was an ally but not official member. You're crazy Sullivan
Sorry Sullivan, you're just wrong on this one. JOB Squad was a great undercard comedy gimmick.
I saw a man wearing a Job Squad shirt at the grocery store THIS WEEK. The legacy of the Squad lives on, and Sullivan is mad.
He might have been a member for all we know.
Oh cool, you saw Mankind at the grocery store?
I went to the OVW taping yesterday and there was a lady in the crowd that looked like she was 100 years old and she was wearing a J.O.B Squad shirt
I haven't watched this yet, but if it's not Retribution......one of them was called Slapjack!!! Slapjack!
The Beauty and the Beast tangent broke me. I didn't stop laughing for about 5 minutes. I hope you happy!
Not as happy as you if you were laughing for 5 whole minutes 😂
Its such a good bit!!
“You didn’t bury this enough.”
Always a great list when this phrase comes up.
I'm a simple man... I see Sullivan. I click. Guaranteed laughs 😂😂
He’s the best part of these!
He's provided some of the greatest pieces of hilarity in any video he's in:
The EPIC "Brie mode" dad joke and his ensuing doofy grin
"EVEN JUST A MAN WITH A GUN!"
The Beauty and the Beast rant
"What? The age of the nonce?!"
@@rushguy1 you couldn't be more right.
My favorite immortal moment was when hogan is trying to get Scott Steiner to join and he goes “you’re gonna make immortal REALLY immortal brother”. They would come to the ring and have like 25 people in there lol
I just remember hogan giving abyss his HOF ring and they acted like it made him a fucking green lantern.
The Firm was a really crazy one bc the way they debuted made you think they were gonna be impactful. Then on the first Dynamite after the PPV, MJF said these guys will be on retainer and then weren’t ever on retainer??? Then never given a real story? Insane
I didn’t realise Heath Slater was responsible for the spelling of the Corre lmao! Sully’s face was priceless at that point
Actually it wasn't Heath, just saw an interwiev with Barrett and ha admitted that he made up that story, to make it more interesting rather than saying "core" was already licensed for entertainment
You missed The Oddities. Complete with the former late great Earthquake playing a masked man who carried an Eric Cartman doll around.
3:18 while it is true that Brandy did do that, she's also still REALLY mad that people hated the Nightmare Collective and the storyline was dropped. She did an interview early this year and specifically mentioned that WWE listens to its fans but doesn't "let them decide how to book storylines the way some other people do"
Bitterness is a real thing, let's remember Saraya's promo of "feels good to finally have a boss who listens" which definitely aged well.
I'm baffled that Brandy is mad that the group was dropped, be like Mia Yi... I mean, Reckoning and eat defeat.
The point of the Welcoming Committee group was to take down Charlotte Flair when she moved from Raw to SmackDown. Then they randomly reformed for someone else, I think the Riott Squad.
I never really saw them as a faction anyway.
Made this comment too though seeing yours I just up voted yours instead and deleted mine
@@AdamTVized People like you are a rarity in youtube
The point of the group was to turn Charlotte face so they had all the SD heels going after Charlotte which made the top faces Naomi & Becky fight with Charlotte which led to a PPV match(where Becky takes the loss). The problem is why are they "welcoming" Tamina who also just came to SD like Charlotte. Also another reason was to set up feuds for Charlotte down the line when they make her champ again. Natalya eventually won the title just to lose it to Charlotte & Carmella eventually beats Charlotte for the title with her MITB. WWE wanted Charlotte to be the #1 SD face of the women so they basically buried Naomi & Becky & pushed the top heels(Welcoming Committee) for Charlotte to overcome.
Nightmare Collective backlash, Brandi: Sorry, we'll just stop this.
The Firm backlash, Tony: Wait, wait let it play out, it'll work.
Also the Nightmare Collectove backlash started before the group event debuted.
People saw a vague vignette (a wrestling staple) but heard Brandi talking. That was all it took. It wasn't gonna matter8f they were good after some people heard Brandi talk.
And then they actually did suck.
@@Adamdidit but it gave us Luthor, so it was all worth it in the end
👉😝
1. The League Of Nationa
2. RETRIBUTION
3. Nightmare Collective
4. The Alliance To End Hulkamania
5. The Dogs Of War
6. The Corre
7. The New Breed
8. The Spirit Squad
9. Vince's Devils
10. Sports Entertainment Xtreme
..........You're telling me there was a faction just called "SEX?" Was it TNA or the Attitude Era? *Who was responsible for this?*
@@polarstriker3854 Who do you think *Bro?*
It lasted like, a year and a half in TNA from 02 to 03 and was made up almost entirely of Guys from 2000s WCW and a couple of guys from like ROH/TNA. Low Ki, Daniels and the like.
@@lilsunny7399 Of *course* it was Russo
No mention of The Dogs Of War? That classic stable with Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre?
_b u n c h a l a d s_
cool 2k universe mode group my dude
THAT'S WHAT THEY WERE CALLED??
@@mile1155sadly to all of us, yes
Dogs Of War was a dope name for a solid faction but awful booking is undefeated....
What, no Misfits in Action? Booker T as GI Bro, Hugh Morris as Hugh G. Rection, Chavo Guerrero Jr as Lt. Loco, Lash LeRoux as Cpl. Cajun , Van Hammer as Major Stash and fashion model Tylene Buck as Major Gunns. This was after Booker T was in that great best of 7 series with Chris Benoit and was seemingly elevated by it. There may be worse groups than that, but not many.
Fashion model lol
You talked so much about The Firm, but I can't tell if you're forgetting or intentionally ignoring the elephant in the room.
The Firm was put together so Max could have a stable to assist him in his impending followup feud with CM Punk. But Punk got hurt at the same PPV when The Firm was formed, later in the evening. Not to mention the Brawl Out incident.
With Punk gone, the planned storyline for The Firm got scrapped, which is why they "fired" MJF from the group so abruptly.
Punk wasn't only hurt though.... But we'd like to forget that
@@thesfdoctor3603 lol yeah that too.
Every question you have about The Firm can be answered if you remember they debuted at Brawl Out
Sullivan's back! That could only mean one thing... 😂
He won't be able to spell "NOW"?
35 star match
"Stupid Ben"
The union were a group of former corporate members who all came out with 2×4's as a way to counter the corporation.
Obviously A-Train is Gaston. Every last inch of him's covered in HAAAAAIIIIIIIR!
THE ENTIRE #6 ENTRY. PURE UNADULTERATED MONKEY CARNAGE.
Instant classic.
Another thing to mention is that the spirit squad was basically just a punching bag for DX and other wrestlers
Having sully on any of these "worst" tlc episodes is such a cheat code 😂😂
When you started casting the cabinet in beauty and the beast i broke. I did not know about the faction but i got it anyway somehow. Dave Batista as Gaston gave me the funniest poster ideas in a while.
Im surprised no one listed Aces and Eights from TNA
I think because they helped garner some interest in TNA at the time they're going to be looked back on as "good" but yeah... they were awful.
That raw review podcast still lives rent free in my head to this day. Luke just saying over and over to Pete “His name is Slapjack” is still so funny
That "Beauty" and the "Beast" with JBL and Michael Cole bit though! XD
Well, now I need to see a remake of Beauty & The Beast starring The Cabinet, Michael Cole, & Batista
I didn’t know I needed an all Smackdown casting of Beauty and The Beast, but here we are
Dungeon of Doom and The new blood are two missing ones from this list but I won't harp on it too much because 1995 and 2000 WCW is rarely worth mentioning.
His name, was indeed Slapjack
I never knew I needed a remake of Beauty and the Beast with JBL and Maggle Cole
Actually just a little surprised that The X-Factor didn't make an appearance in this one haha
I know the timeline is wrong, but Heidenreich should be Gaston….
Wow, this might be the first time I've seen a worst factions list and no one mentions the Dungeon of Doom.
Recency bias my friend.
I thought that was weird initially as well. But then I thought, maybe they fall under the "bad group that was supposed to be bad" category. Like, nobody actually EXPECTED anything from the Dungeon of Doom, right? I certainly didn't.
I known right? But to be fair, on their best list, they had the 4 Horsemen because of historical context. They knew they are important but don't know why.
Also, Dungeon Of Doom was awesome. Both in a "so bad it's good" way, and you just couldn't help but watch and see what whacky shit Sullivan and his Dad would get up to this week to kill Hulkamania. Summoning a giant with a monster truck? Sure. A YET-TAY that hatches from a crystal and dry humps former world champs to death? Why not? Jimmy Hart? Of course. Shaving the atomic moustache! Oh crap, Hogan's become a Dread Pirate Roberts now. The Zodiac? Yes. No. Yes. NO. Steaming water that's not hot? You bet your ass they got that.
That shît was so cash.
Because this list is ETCHED IN STONE!
I love how you explained who The Firm was, and by the time they're mentioned again, I already forgot they were part of AEW. I also love how I only remember Retribution because of Season 1&2 of Monday Night War.
I think the worst part of Retribution is how good most of the wrestlers involved are. Mustafa Ali, Mercedes Martinez and Dijak are absolute workhorses, Mia Yim is really good and, given the right spot, Mace is awesome. None of them needed Retribution or anything this gimmicky, it was just so sad to see
The need to name their picks can’t always read the board
Oli Davis kept saying: "Stop trying to make "The Firm" happen and then it stopped happening.
I actually forgot Retrubution was a thing
Yeah I forgot about Red Distribution too.
Wishful thinking. 🤣
I've tried. They were one of the best things about the pandemic era of WWE, then they were hampered by their stupid names, and then they just fizzled out into the abyss.
The OG idea should've been the fact Mustafa missed the Elimination Chamber the year before due to injury, Kofi got his spot and then went on to the WWE title. The booking butchered them more than their masks, and they really should've been the early days of Nexus.
JBL beauty and the beast is an all timer wrestletalk bit, i was DYING
my list.
10) 3MB
9) The Soical Outcast
8) The Nightmare Collective
7) DX the one with Hornswoggle
6) The Spirt Squad
5) the welcoming committee
4) The Core
3) The Authority
2) NWO 2000
1) The Alliance and Retribution ( yes tied for first)
I believe you're mistaken with #4.
It's The C

@@TheOnlyBasketCase the only good thingI say about The Corre is the Entrance Theme
Putting only an exact era of a faction is cheating. Having 11 on a top 10 is cheating. Your list has no one that wasn't at least mentioned in this video so you came up with your list based on theirs which is cheating. Can you not do anything right?
@@TyMarshall007 which version? lol
@@etchbekey V1 and final Version
@13:00 Gaston was HHH and didn't want to work Tuesdays
Honestly shocked to not see the new blood, the new breed or the millionaire's club on here. I imagine they were on the long list
I image that’s because what they consider “worst” is groups that where pointless, made no sense, or where just straight racist
For as bad as your 3 groups are: they DID serve a purpose, did START off ok, and ultimately had SOME moments of success
….though VERY VERY minor in some cases
As a guy who considers himself a WCW fan, the lack of WCW representation on this list turns me into Grandpa Simpson almost as much as the lack of good WCW factions on the “best of” list.
New Blood? Powers that Be? Dungeon of Doom? NWO 2000?
12:43 I need this parody now. With you three doing impressions and wearing outfits😭
The Welcoming Committee's whole gimmick wasn't "We hate NXT call-ups," it was "we hate Charlotte" after Charlotte got transferred from RAW to SmackDown. It was literally just four people united against Charlotte.
Luke’s JBL had me cackling w😂
Sullivan’s singing nearly made me fall off the treadmill
The Cabinet as Beauty and the Beast was amazing.
I will say when the Hurt Business confronted Retribution was a cool moment and then Retribution got their arses handed to them.
Yay Luke is back! I missed ya lad! Steiner math is better than the pipebomb. Preach!
Sullivan's machine-gun giggle has gotten me through a number of hard times in my life.
The Beauty and the Beast segway was an all-timer.
I can tell this is gonna be a fun episode when I immediately go “what?!” at Sully and Petes number 10. 3MB did its job, it was a fun stable. Same with Social Outcasts. Not every group needs to be major stars, they were just fun comedy groups.
What frustrated me about 3MB is they could have been good. Not top tier good but mid card, threat for tag US IC title good. Drew especially. I thought 3MB was a catalyst for Drew to turn evil and serious but that wasn't the plan I guess.
"They were just fun comedy groups."
The word "fun" is out of place in that sentence, they were about as fun as testicular cancer.
The Beauty and the Beast bit was amazing
something ive noticed is that impact has a habit of doing nwo style factions... as in... the entire company ends up joining the faction. both immortal and aces & eights fit this 'trope'
Sullivan is an absolute treat on these worst list videos.
Was not expecting the Beauty and the Beast presented by WWE casting
“Oh my god, it’s the greatest faction of all time” 😂😂😂 had me in stitches 😂
When Pete & Sullivan said who are Immortal... kinda prooves my point. Anything not WWE/WWF/AEW/WCW they are clueless.
Atleast Sullivan is funny though. Job Squad ❤
How Dare Sully absolutely blaspheme on the name of 3MB! A faction that bred 2 World Champions! Absolutely disgusting 😂😂😂
Sullivan IS TLC! Nice to know you read the comments, I suggested best/worst factions list here.
His name IS SLAPJACK
I love how broken Pete looks after the "Beauty and the Beast" nonsense
1:20 Luke for about 95% of his waking hours
X-Factor got screwed by not being on this list. Not a typo, lol.
I forgot about X Factor lol. Horrible entrance song and just another "creative has nothing for this guy and that guy, let's put them in a stable"
Editor's note: Apologies to the editor for having to watch the Retribution video for reference just for that one joke. I hope your eyes and ears are okay.
20:22
Sullivan - My whole life is a lie 😂
I was in hospital at the time of that Retribution RAW review, it absolutely made my day, it was so funny 😹
That was the most glorious last 3 minutes ever. His name is slapjack lmao
I have a deep, deep need for this WWE version of Beauty and the Beast that they've cast.
The Beauty and the Beast riff on the Cabinet made me have to pause the video cause I was laughing so much
That three way handshake was awesome it’s always cool to see the team members have the same opinion on a wrestling topic.
I remember Wrestletalks bit about The Firm, *_more than The Firm!_*
This series is getting more and more chaotic and I am here for it!! 😂
Surprised Luke didn't mention TNA stable The Menagerie, which featured Mike Knox as the ringmaster of a creepy carnival
There's like a 40% chance luke would make an argument for why they were actually quite cool (for the record I've never heard of them)
@nalidhardstyle8551 i mean...thats fair 😂
They featured Rebel, Rob Terry inna shite mask and I think the debut of Crazzy Steve
This series and the 3 count are both so, so good
Absolutely love sullivan. You can see how much the other members love having him. He has insane amounts of charisma
I remember watching the news episode after they revealed the names and first couple of minutes of the video was Luke and Pete laughing because his name was Slapjack 😂
I want Sullivan to do a raw or aew review because I know his tangents would be hilarious 😂😂😂
I think if they ever did a new round of Fantasy Booking Warfare, one of the rounds has to be rebooking Retribution. So far the one of Adam doing it and completely rebooking the entire thing as a proper NXT invasion is one of the best rebookings I've ever seen. Please make a new round of it and have Dave Bradshaw, Nina Samuels, and Michael Oku be the judges, they were awesome as the panel.
If only they'd have made an Aces and 1/8ths joke talking about fractions
Next tlc idea 10 worst celebrity cameos in wwe
If Michael Cole is Belle then the obvious Gaston has got to be Heidenreich
The first time I recall not agreeing with Sully. Bad Sully, J.O.B squad ruled
Following Pete's comments, the authority's gimmick was "we're here to make the show worse"?
20:22 Sullivan's flabber has well and truly been gasted.
"I'm doing commentary, same as always" Is the best thing I have ever heard!
I'm so excited to hear Luke ramble about Aces and Eights and the Main Event Mafia
What did we learn from this episode? If youre put together with Heath Slater in WWE youre almost certain to fail...unless youre Rhyno, then youre somehow the perfect tag team
Sullivan, you may be the "Cutest Boy In The World," but I'm going to disagree about the JOB Squad.
I was kind of hoping for Luke to put the Aces and Eights on his list. The most non-threatening threat to TNA's locker room
The Bully Ray swerve alone keeps them out of the top-10, I'd assume.
"Rusev took a TV monitor out of the arena to call himself the TV Champion and it was hilarious" was it really Pete
