No, not really. The only stables I can think of that this was the case were ones with to many members or just really unpopular, like NWO version 4, DOA, or Los Boricuas. Most of the "other guys" ganged popularity and notability in the stables. And something BigCrippyZ didn't bring up is at the time of all these stables, all the belts had meaning to them. So these other guys would be having great storylines and matches trying to get "the lower" belts, so their stable could show they were the best. Then after the stables came to end, we had tons of back history set up to help build these guys up to the next level or Hunters Glass Ceiling, whatever came first.
Oh BTW Ken at one time was worth fussing over. Him and Owen made me watch RAW at times. I do also believe he did have a little "Title push" maybe I'm wrong. I'm thinking somewhere in or around Kane's Title Push..oops I won the title time. Foley...Do I really have to say anything.
Next, I'd like to say, I wasn't one for the Brand Split, or having two champs, but both ideas grew on me. The areas were they keep failing at is that ranking system and really making the IC and US belts imporant. It seems like everytime the IC storyline starts to get hot, they stomp the fire out and piss on it. I don't know, maybe they're afarid of having the Mid-Cards being more popular than the Main Eventers. Then with the shows you have this unblance level of Face and Heels. This isn't a hard thing to fix, yet they make it seem like it.
All in all I guess I think the thing wrong today is that missing ranking system. I kind of miss watching guys work their way up to IC and then start to flirt with the Main Eventers.
