Which Stable did you like more, Immortal or Aces and Eights? Me and my buddy are on Xbox live right now and he just asked me who did I like more Immortal or Aces and Eights? I said Immortal and he said A&8's. How about you guys?

Immortal seemed good but they kept adding members like it didn't matter. You started off with Jeff Hardy, Jarrett, Abyss, Hogan and Bischoff. Then on Impact one week or later, they added Fortune (Flair, Styles, Morgan, Williams, Beer Money and Kaz). For me it should have stopped there. But no they kept on going. Not only adding rookies, who we're meant to believe were jobbers one week, but could pose a threat to established guys another week... it just ruined the credibility.
So Morgan and Williams left, and we gained Gunner, Murphy and wierdly Rob Terry, who just about had 2 matches for them and was booted out. Bring in Matt Hardy and Bully Ray as well. We then had Hernandez join briefly to feud for like 2 weeks with Morgan, then quietly leave to form Mexican America.
The whole 'THEY v2' fiasco was ridiculous, but luckily we got Fortune leaving. But instead of perceiving Immortal as the threat, Fortune were just put in pointless matches, sometimes weren't seen every week (despite the constant presence of Bischoff and his lackeys) and for the saviours of TNA, they were really badly booked.
Later on in the year we had Fortune look like this: Bischoff, Flair, Steiner (bizarrely being pally with Flair), Hogan, Bully Ray, Gunner, Abyss and Jarrett. Both Hardys were gone, and they had become so much of a joke, with no-one to feud with Sting over the title, they drafted in Anderson for like 2 weeks, and then he left. The worst decision of all, was having Kurt Angle of all people join the very group he had been feuding with alongside Fortune for months via Jarrett, and he dropped all his beef. He sided with Immortal just to feud with Sting over the WHC.
Bad booking by Bischoff and his cronies yet again. And then Immortal fizzled out without a bang.
I perceive A&8s having being booked way better than Immortal. So my vote is for them.. Plus they looked cool as heel with their kuttes, the logos and music. Just could have been better is all.

Aces & Eights by far.
Much better character and made for better TV seeing all the reveals unfold, shame it resembled New Nexus toward the end of their run.

Aces and Eights was great I thought. I just went on a wee to long, but it was nice writing. I hate how WWE forgets everything pre 6 months or so but TNA didn't and doesn't.

Aces and 8's, as there was actually substance to it. Immortal was horrendous imo.

-- I went with IMMORTAL, because A&8s did not live up to it's full potential. Though not original, TNA did have something special with the group and again, it was misused.

I voted for Immortal. Aces & Eights lost most, if not all, of their excitement by A) losing the nameless, countless masked characters and B) the lame reveals of lower mid-card or never-on-any-card talents that brought no legitimacy to the group.

The first few months of Aces and Eights was great while Immortal was never great.

I never liked Aces & Eights as it went too long and was getting stale real fast. Immortal gets my vote on this.

Immortal Simply for the fact that Antichrist Hardy was awesome.
