Who will be the Paul Roma? why not use the real Paul Roma? I mean, he is a former WWE AND WCW guy. Probably has a drug problem. Those are the number one things needed to be a star in TNA these days, right? You couldnt be anymore correct.

considering g2 actually watched the original horsemen, and knows really better than any of us how they were in the nwa, he's more than permitted to share his opinion there 'kentonbomb'...

I've seen the Original Horsemen's work, I know what I'm talking about... Beer Money, AJ and Kazarian are some of the top talents today. So I don't know where you're getting the "Can't lace up their boots" BS from. Hypocrite much? So you can disagree with me, and not "pick fights", yet I can't differ an opinion without starting something? Get off my dick. I highly doubt anyone has ever been on it. Arnt you suppose to eat a hat or something? We're still waiting mister man of my word. Umm... I ate that hat... like 2 years ago. Where've you been?

You may say they are on top today but Fortune will not stand the test of time like the Horsemen.
The Horsemen will forever be known as the greatest group of guys ever.

Fortune has existed sine June 2010. fair, but i more meant now that they're standing on their own two feet as a group - not reliant on veterans. fortune was standing on there own feet as a group for a while before joining Immortal. then they added Morgan and Williams which was a mistake in my eyes cuz it made them seem less like the horseman which is blatantly the idea (when fortune was created flair even said that they were the horsemen but called fortune because tna isnt legally allowed to use the horsemen name). they are a great modern day horsemen. not so much in style but in that they gel well together and seem to have clearly defined roles in the group similar to the original horsemen. flair: manager who sometime wrestles like jj did a few times aj: the clear star of the group like flair was roode: more of a tag team guy but could hold his own as a singles guy like arn anderson storm: tag team specialist like ole was kazarian: that upper midcard guy who is a good singles star but a step behind the leader like tully blanchard personally i think i liked the group better when they had desmond wolfe before they were called fortune. btw i think to a lesser extent DX resembled the horsemen in a similar way in terms of roles. hhh was the flair, new age outlaws were the andersons, and xpac was the tully. clearly the styles and talent levels were different but the roles were the same.

In the ring, all members of Fourtune are just as good as the original Horsemen... on the mic, there is TONS left to be desired Personally, I always thought that The Andersons and Blanchard were twice the wrestlers that Ric Flair was. Flair's extremely overrated imo as far as in-ring work is concerned. But considering the legacy behind the Horsemen, and Fourtune being in TNA (not exactly a striving national promotion with a rich history like the NWA) ofcourse they don't compare. Fourtune hasn't even been put in a position that The Horsemen were in. Fourtune up until now, were a backup stable for Immortal It's not a fair comparison by those standards alone AJ Styles is a world class wrestler imo, one of the best today. Flair was what he was, and considering that Flair's charisma was off the charts... it's just not right to compare. 2 different characters with 2 completely different styles. It's not a fair comparison at all. Robert Roode is a stud. So much potential that it makes me laugh. He's so good that it's funny Whenever Roode is put in a greater position with a little longer longevity, then maybe a comparison can be made between him and Anderson. We haven't even seen the best of Robert Roode, so to compare him to Arn Anderson is a joke. Not because Roode isn't good, but because Roode hasn't even hit the plateau of what he could possibly become. The same applies to Storm... Beer Money imo are just as good as any tag team in history when given the opportunity. But the tag division isn't as strong as it used to be in the old days... a great team can only be greater when placed with more versatile tag teams. Who have Beer Money really beat... MCMG, Team 3D, LAX, OJ/EY, Matt Morgan and Abyss Some of those teams are great, but comparing that to the wide array of tag teams that the Andersons beat, that Arn and Tully beat is unfair. Kaz... Great in ring performer, but when I see a cocky Kaz, with his "movie star looks" and whatever all I think about is 2003/4 Randy Orton. Except, you could see Orton's upside... I don't see it in Kaz, I really don't for whatever reason All in all, like I said, it's an unfair comparison to make it this point in time

Exactly with the comparisons fitting that AJ is clearly the star of Fortune like how Ric Flair was for the Horsemen, Roode being like the Arn Anderson of the group, James Storm being like the Ole Anderson of the group, and Kaz being like the Tully Blanchard of the group because the shoe does fit for all of them with Ric being their manager who wrestles part time like how JJ Dillon used to when he managed The Horsemen. Fortune if they can stay together for years and years like how The Horsemen did, then I think they should have that distinction of being The New Age Horsemen of our generation that is if they stay together really long

Desmond Wolfe should have been in Fortune since day one. He could have been believable as the Flair/Triple H of the group.

Comparing Fortune to any version of The Horsemen is as Bobby Heenan would say, "Comparing ice cream to Horse manure" I would definately agree but I would edit that to say Early Horsemen....as in any of the 80s formations. still not the worst comparison that has to be the thread on The Corre being like the 4H the other day.......wow.
