It's not just one stable, but we need a few. This is what I believe led to better storylines when wrestling was popular. We had:
WWF: Corparation, Ministry of Darkness, DX, The Brood, Job Squad etc.
WCW: Filthy Animals, Revolution, Team Canada, Dark Carnival, M.I.A etc.
If you look at wrestling as a comic universe, ie Marvel, DC, there would be an unlimited combination of things you could do, matches you could book, and backstage segments you could shoot.
Week One: Team 1 VS Team 2
Week Two: Team 1 looking for Team 2, runs into Team 3.
Week Three: Team 2 solves issue with Team 3, Team 2 runs in.
Week Four: Member of Team 4 has problem with member of Team 3...
Simalar to how super heroes are always crossing paths, and how a Spider-Man villain might appear in a Daredevil comic etc.
It also gets more people on TV. Which is what the brand split was meant to do but never did. If, for example Gregory Helms is in a stable, then he can still be a part of the show, even if he isn't in a match or a major feud.
