Meanstreet Posse were a comedic jobber group that people loved to hate. They are not a failure, they did exactly they were supposed to and even brought good ratings. Their match against the stooges is one of the matches that had the highest ratings ever.

[@miroslavtomic7038]

Mean Street Posse was not a total failure as it did what it was made for in the first place - make everybody hate Shane. The group managed to just that and technically they were not a total failure. Everything else about it, however, was a total disaster to say the least.

[@CABNoLimit]

[@chrisfleet999]

Mean Street Posse was great.....they weren't supposed to be good, you were supposed to hate them.

[@thehorrorhound6575]

The ascension deserved so much more than they ever got. They were a talented tag team with one hell of a look and a mystique about them that really could’ve gone somewhere. Anyone who doesn’t believe me can go watch their year long reign as NXT tag team champions. Konnor was a throwback to 80s and 90s big men while Viktor was trained in the hart dungeon and was one hell of a technical wrestler. Not to mention both of them were better than good on the mic. They could’ve succeeded in any tag division of any company in any era and instead they were never used at all.

[@jserv9421]

And sadly, they got jobbed out to a bunch of retired wrestlers

[@nealmccorkle3681]

They could have but I think it was the shoes to fill and all of them. They were pigeoned in as that generations LOD or Demolition and that gimmick has a ceiling and the company did not view them as singles potential to run with a breakup storyline.

[@SpiralPoli]

Lmao bWo is far from a failure. They're more memorable than almost every faction since the 2010s started. And 3MB has produced 2 World Champions.

[@OldJabbaJaws]

And they also retained the merch rights so they've been able to make money off it over the years

[@sockaloupe]

Mean street posse was supposed to make you hate Shane, not win tag titles… the fact they were even able to stay in the WWE was crazy. I read a book by Pete gas about the group, very good read. They themselves were under the impression they wouldn’t even be around after the first run to build heat. I don’t think that’s a fail at all…

[@stevegallo8483]

At least one member of Three Count had some success later in WWE. Shane Helms became WWE's resident Superhero the Hurricane Hurricane even had his own trio: himself, Mighty Molly (Molly Holly) and Rosie as the Super Hero In Training. He even had a program with the Rock (who called Hurricane the Hamburglar). Shannon Moore also found his way to WWE and teamed with Matt Hardy for a time.

I think Evan would have trended up too if not for his concussion. Not much I can say about Shannon though.

[@warrentreadwelljr.treadwel2694]

Drew’s story is so much more complex as he was brought in to be a champion, untried without experience. Fans quickly hated him, not as a heel wrestler, but as a person they never wanted to see, much less pay to see. But he was learning, fast, even with the flunky wrestler turn. He went to Impact wrestling and we finally saw just how great he could be. But it was rough, some laughter, some tears, sometimes just had to turn the TV off. But after his Wwe changes, we never saw glimpses of what he could be. Without Impact, would us seeing his enormous potential, would he be in WWE today? Dunno. Just my opinion. As they say, the rest is wrestling history.

[@yujiro424]

The Mean Street Posse was perfect for what it was supposed to be and have some really highly rated segments.

[@camwatson9172]

Terri said that she begged Vince McMahon for months to end the PMS group it was a Russo idea that McMahon agreed on

[@nealmccorkle3681]

@mysteryman0216 I wanted to see if Drew had anymore trios so I did a search....it had 6 factions but 4 of them were 3MB lol (also had them in 2013 as Plymouth Rockers, Rhinestone Cowboys and Union Jacks)

[@FlyBoyEnterprises]

-3MB were over with the fans -XFactor underrated and underappreciated with an AWESOME theme -Stardust & The Ascension as The Cosmic Wasteland were underrated and underappreciated shat should have been pushed as a major heel team. -Mean Street Posse were OVER with the fans -PMS needs a reboot as it would be an asset to the tag division -The Hardys & Hays were AWESOME and fit PERFECTLY -3 Count was OVER with the fans

[@prize5ighter]

You're one of the rare people I've seen commenting that X Factor had a good theme. Unknowingly back in 2011-12, when I stumbled onto their Uncle Kracker theme, I kinda got hooked to it but then realized how un-wrestling it was. But their instrumental was a good one too but maybe it would've suited someone else instead of X-Factor as a trio.

[@JonathonTaylor-u6e]

Jonathon Taylor here. I remember back in 2010 I was a fan of the Band Kevin Nash, R I P Scott Hall and Syxx I was at 2010 lockdown ppv and I was my nWo and nWo wolfpac Bros for the first time together and I had a lot nWo and nWo wolfpac memories and they were just toooooo sweeeeet bro

[@danc3488]

Man, I loved the Ascension for awhile. They could've been one of the greatest tag teams ever. They had an it factor and they had lit up NXT for a long time. Then they went committed a cardinal sin and shot themselves in the ass. What did they do, you ask? They cut one of their first promos and compared themselves to the Road Warriors right after their main roster debut. It was one of the worst promos I'd ever heard and I'll never forget it. This was before they had beaten anyone of merit on the main roster. That was a HUGE no-no for Vince McMahon. After that, it was a quick demise for them.

[@rynoshnglkmle]

I thought Hayes with the Hardy's worked really well esp at that point in the hardy's career. Obviously, he was older but fit the manager role perfectly.

[@luisgomez8635]

3 Man Band was fkn awesome. How dare they be included in this list.

The Mean Street Posse wasn't a failed group at all. They were the epitome of the douchey team you hoped got their asses kicked, and they always did. They were perfect.
