That was quite possibly the most entertaining thing I've seen in TNA ever and in wrestling in general in a long time. Wow. I was cracking up.

I'm not buying the 'Fortune' name as a replacement for The Four Horsemen. I guess its being used so they can still raise four fingers.

Better to give them a new name than marring the Horseman legacy by reviving it.

The Horseman legacy has already been marred quite a bit.
But it was bizarre hearing Flair run down his new group by comparing them to the old members of the Horsemen. It's an odd way to push the group as a real threat.

Everything TNA does is more than a little odd.

Having learned that Jay Lethal has been doing the Macho Man shtick for awhile and it's not just something he started when Hogan came to TNA makes me hate him 1000x less.
Just watched the Lethal-Flair segment on YouTube. Hilarious stuff.
But DAMN Flair is looking ancient.

Lethal-Flair is the only match (besides Rayne-Love) that I am even slightly interested in. I'm not buying it, but if I did it would be for that match only. That's really sad.
I still have a hard time watching RVD, Hardy, and Anderson without thinking they are fighting over the Intercontinental Title.

Fortune reminds me of Flair's stable in late WCW. The Magnificent Seven? Maybe he'll bring in Animal to be the enforcer.

That whole Fortune stable is doomed already. To start a stable they either need to be formed outright or just start naturally teaming together and then decide to form a stable.
Morgan is apparently a member and he wasn't even in the ring when Flair started the stable? It's just a big mess.

Is Morgan a member? I thought he was up for membership and lost to Lethal.

Morgan isn't a member. He came out and said that he was asked to join, but probably lying.

Wow. Now I'm even more confused. Why can't TNA just do a stable like a normal stable?!?!? ARGH! I'm surprised Flair didn't come out and call Morgan the "Paul Roma" of Fortune. So are there any actual members at this point? I mean, they've all lost to Lethal.

(Because surely Senior Citizen Flair can't go over Jay Lethal at the PPV...right?)

I think Kaz, Styles, and Wolfe (and Morgan if he ends up a member) have all jobbed to him. Not definite though. And yeah, Lethal has to go over Flair...
Way to build up the new stable as something special.
Lethal is the guy they are wanting to push so I get that, but why the heck is Styles jobbing to everybody right now? And the rest of the stable should be doing something worthwhile. And if there isn't an actual stable right now then they shouldn't have introduced the angle a few weeks back.

What's hilarious is all the speculation that they are setting Styles up for a face turn...a few months after Sting "passed the torch" to Styles, and then they randomly turned Styles heel.

Styles went from the guy that I thought was suppose to carry TNA for Hogan and Bischoff and into some sort of worthless midcarder.
The New Nature Boy wasn't my favorite use of him, but he should have held on to the title for quite awhile and been pushed a lot harder. I think Joe has been used poorly since Hogan, but Styles has been even worse.
