WWE Rumor Roundup: Surprising name to eliminate Brock Lesnar, Legendary tag team to reunite after 5 years - 18th January 2020

#2 Possibility of a fifth member being added to Seth Rollins' faction

The addition of Buddy Murphy to the formidable stable helmed by Seth "The Monday Night Messiah" Rollins has broken the recent trend of WWE sticking to three-man factions.

It wasn't uncommon to have massive groups with more than three members during the glory days of pro wrestling and WWE may be turning back the clock with their latest offering.

Tom Colohue speculated on the Dropkick DiSKussions podcast that the company could add a fifth member to the faction before WrestleMania 36.

He opined that Akam, Rezar and Murphy will all benefit from being in the presence of Seth Rollins, whose star power should ideally rub off on his fellow members.

"Yeah, It has been a while since we’ve had a group of anything larger than three and you think back to heydays of the Attitude Era, you had the Nation of Domination, you had DX, they were very large stables, DX was a 5, the Nation of Domination was 5 or 6 depending on what was going on at the time.

"So, there is a good story to tell and the way they did this is very much a Paul Heyman stable. You always have the leader, the vocal leader at the top, and then it’s important that you don’t have anyone else on his level. Buddy Murphy is nowhere near Seth Rollins’ level. He will benefit so much from association with Seth Rollins.

"Same with AOP, they will benefit from the association, from Rollins’ charisma, from Rollins’ talking, they will benefit from that Advertisement All four men are going to benefit, and I do agree, we will probably add at least one more in the build-up to WrestleMania." H/t Credit: Sportskeeda.
