Ranking the 10 greatest wrestling stables of all time

#7 The Fabulous Freebirds

Where did you think The Freebird Rule originated from?

One of the prime heel stables of the early days of wrestling, The Fabulous Freebirds were the ones opposing the John Cena-esque von Erich family. They were truly despised in a time when kayfabe was real, faces were worshipped as Gods and heels were derided in the streets.

Their importance cannot be understated as the trio of Michaels Hayes, Buddy Roberts, and Terry Gordy even invented The Freebird Rule – allowing any two members of a stable to defend Tag Team Championships in matches. They are also members of the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame.
