the concept of such a faction was excellent and still one the best factions/larger groups of all time with a great tune. you want to hate them but you can't.
Wammy Games this was the original main event mafia. Joe was in version 2. A group consisting of world champions where lever they were. Mostly wcw, wwf/wwe and tna/nwa.
The TNA stables I can remember: Team Canada Triple X AMW LAX MEM & Frontline World Elite EV 2.0 Fortune & Immortal Have to say I miss the MEM but now wondering what TNA are gonna do with the next stable
There was (Beer Money), yeah. However, Roode and Storm wasn't much of a memorable faction in TNA. There's the (3 Live Kru) which consisted of R Truth, Road Dogg and Konan. This team emerged during a time when TNA was hot with then young talent like Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, AJ Styles, Michael Shane, Petey Williams, Eric Young and many more! Finally there is the (Motor City Machine Guns) which consisted of Sabin and Shelley. They made a decent team of speed and aerial technicality in the X Division. So I do agree; TNA has built some memorable tag teams in its existence. Let's see if the company can keep gelling with the talent it has right now.💯✌️
@@ecymbura31 Fuck off with that bullshit haha. The only remotely good member of the Main Event Mafia was Kurt Angle. Don't get me wrong all of the guys are legends but all of them were past their prime besides Kurt Angle and to a lesser degree Sting. Don't be that person. "Overrated indie guys". Hilarious.
Shield is the only overrated shit here. and that's also because of Pussy Reigns. if he was never on Shield then nobody will give a shit about them (at least not in my country tho)
@@Blannibal311 brother booker t was still able to go at that time.. kurt sting booker t.. those three alone are better than the shield.. then add scott and nash....
@DKLazer They intended to. When Crimson started talking about the arrival of 'they,' like Abyss had done before him in referring to Immortal, he was talking about the Main Event Mafia. Then Kevin Nash and Booker T re-signed with WWE and returned to the company at the Royal Rumble. TNA, being TNA, hadn't tied them down to contracts before starting the angle, and were left scurrying for a solution. Hence, Fourtune being 'they.' Didn't make sense that their leader, AJ Styles, was attacked by (cont)
the Shield is actually a really great trio. they never fail to put on great 6 man tag team matches. Aces and Eights are good heels, but need a bit of building up. everyone knows about Anderson and Ray, but i think they need the other guys to at least stand out better, but Ray being there really helps them
Th old mafia consisted of guys who were already established, The new mafia has Magnus and Joe who really haven't done a whole lot in wrestling like other guys in TNA
I knew Joe was a big possibility, i never argued that he wouldn't be a member! Only said it depends on how he will be used in the BFG series! So that would tell me there are no big plans for him in the series so he will be able to focus on MEM stuff! Why is Aries not an option? That whole thing with Suicide could be a setup to him joining the MEM, because i'm sure he will be viewed as the face vs. Bully Ray! Matter of opinion? Their accomplishments speak for themselves, its a fact!
I actually just noticed that now too, probably because TNA doesn't play their themes loud enough (they probably should considering the no crowd reaction sometimes lol). I just wish they would cut out whatever that guy is saying, "Biya Biya", "Mia Mia", it sure as heck doesn't sound like "Main Event Mafia". Sounds like a sound byte from an SNES game.
Imagine Fortune vs the Main Event Mafia. Coincidentally Fortune was similar to the TNA Frontline cause they were younger members warring with the more established names. And AJ Styles was part of both groups
Ah, Father James Mitchell's and Raven's stables. Wasn't watching that much TNA back in the early 2000's when they were around but I do remember Serotonin with Raven, Divine and Kaz. I think there was someone else but I can't think who it was right now
Personally, I think that Sabin might be in it. This is because I think he'll give up the X division title in exchange for a shot at Bully Ray, and then the MEM will offer to keep Aces & 8's from interfering in the match.
Its possible but not saying for sure is one member of the new MEM may be Rob Terry and,of course,don't be too surprised if Jeff Jarrett joins in with the MEM
yes your right that's what the original main event mafia was about! as in for doc i see him as a world champion one day if he screw up. as in for Joseph park is a fmr nwa world champion under his other ring name abyss!
Fortune could be there greatest faction ever if they just made them more horsemen-like....every group in history took ideas from others. It's a way of life
So the first member we know for sure in Angle! If they stick to the model of the stable and have all main event caliber guys, other members could be Matt Morgan, Samoa Joe, Jeff Jarrett, Abyss (i know Scott Steiner has burned some bridges in TNA but he could still be a possibility if they decide to bring him back)...and for some reason i keep thinking Roode and/or Aries! Not saying ALL of them, but i wouldn't be surprised to see any of these guys as members!
Well, knowing TNA's "Creative" (noted the quotes around Creative) he's probably going to be in the group, you know trying to find his brother Abyss and when He does come, he'll miss him and all that, kayfabe and shit
also remember aj is with noone hes turned his back on tna and the aces& 8s roode and aries are in the bfg series and jarrett just works behind the scenes
@scorpiofire424 I am suprised TNA never released 'The Main Event Mafia Story' DVD where its has most of there promos and matchs plus imterviews with all 5 orangal members Would have been cool as I would pay alot of money for it
Owh i guess you are right. Though i always thought the original plan was for MEM to return and Fortune would stay a part of Immortal. But hey, i guess it was just rumours.
Fortune was originally planned to join MEM but booker and nash went to the wwe . remember when crimson was beating up abyss and kept sayin' "they are coming" well it was planned to be fortune+MEM but it was canceled.
I know what i said, and i didnt say that i assume anything! I was merely stating different possibilities of how TNA could work things! And it is simple logic to think that ANY of the guys who are gonna be used as top guys in the BFG series would most likely not be in the MEM as the only focus of the MEM in Sting's mind is to focus on and take out Aces & Eights...the MEM members are gonna be feuding with Aces & Eights...cant earn points that way unless against Anderson, which would get old fast!
Well, Morgan and Crimson are heels and I'm thinking the new Main Event Mafia are going to be faces, and maybe Abyss will be in the group instead of Joseph Parks, like Parks will be in the group a little while and then he's going to go missing and Abyss returns and all that stuff
As i said previously, a lot of stuff TNA does doesn't make a lot of sense, but they do it anyway! And i think its clear that Sting is not out to make friends in the storyline at the moment, his ONLY focus is taking out Aces & Eights however he can! And no, i was not wrong about Joe! I NEVER said that he would not join MEM for sure..if u look at my first comment u will see i listed him as a possibility! So i was not actually wrong!
I'm not just talking about what they have or haven't contributed to the company...i'm talking about talent wise! They are 2 of the best wrestlers on the TNA roster today! And i'm sorry but that is a fact! And before u quote me out of context again, notice i said "2 OF THE BEST"...not the 2 best!

THE BEST TEAM EVER :STING, KEVIN NASH, SCOTT STEINER, BOOKER T AND KURT ANGLE. AWESOME!
They needed christian to join to make it complete
Samoa Joe as well
Anime Hero not trying to be mean or anything but do you know what this group was?

@@wammygames7627 hes fat!!
The intro is my favorite part of the whole song. It has an Italian feel to it. 🔥💯
A WWE version of MEM will end like how every other WWE storyline ends: with super Cena saving the day

Have to say I miss the MEM but now wondering what TNA are gonna do with the next stable
cant forget Beer Money!

I freakin' loved the Main Event Mafia
Best Stable to date. I'm happy TNA is bringing the group back with New Guys and Veterans alike.
Back when TNA gave WWE a run for its money. Godly faction.
What about the sting vs Mick foley in 2008 or 2009 I can't remember the year
No it wasn't lol, They were dead In the water at this point 🤣🤣

That is so true though
A little bit?

I MISS MEM
Main Event Mafia was an extremely underrated group...
In my opinion, they were far better than The Shield or Bullet Club.
Absolutely true. One group are real legends the other 2 are overrated indie guys
Roman wasn't an indie guy though.

Remember the face on wrestlers when this music hit the speakers and they'd be shitting themselves.
The coolest instrumental to listen to on TH-cam and i always listen to this one when I'm walking around town and the coolest group in wrestling
MEM > Aces And Eights.
God I miss tna with this era! Mem and beautiful people and beer money.
M.E.M.E
Main Event Media Everywhere
BOOK IT JARRET!
this is the coolest song ever here
Good ole days. Just had to be there.
glad they've went back to using this theme
TNA is back LETS GOOOOOOOOO
Even to this day, No One Messes with the Main Event Mafia!!!!!
Tbh MAIN EVENT MAFIA and LAX are TNA best faction in TNA history tho
Anyone watching in 2017? ✌ damn I miss the mem, TNA was amazing back then
Sting's First Recruit for the New Main Event Mafia Original Member Kurt Angle.
MAIN EVENT MAFIA!!! YES! YES! YES! WELCOME BACK!
2006-2009 was the best for impact

Yeah, it took me a while to realize, I forget Taz debut in TNA when he was helping Joe
What are they saying in the back? To me it sounds like "We are being beat up" but I KNOW that isn't right. This is the MEM, not the JOB Squad.
True it does sound like we are being beat up
+tony LLama becuase it dose say that and who knows why it says that
I think it's actually saying "M.E.M."
Yep, they're chanting "M.E.M.", the initials of Main Event Mafia.
They do the same shit in the Beautiful People's theme lol It's an early TNA theme staple those "vocals"
I like Aces n Eights but i have always been Mafia so glad the family are back. and as a formor once said the band is back together
This is really fiting them TNa R prosperity outspoken membership leadership in their own solitary thing. Bravo Tna
I love this theme cause it reminded me of killer instinct
Lit ass theme song. Sounds like some crime show stuff XD
The reason I watched tna at the time
that's something worth seeing I would like to see double j make a return
Lo estoy viendo a la misma vez que Chagui
the Shield is actually a really great trio. they never fail to put on great 6 man tag team matches. Aces and Eights are good heels, but need a bit of building up. everyone knows about Anderson and Ray, but i think they need the other guys to at least stand out better, but Ray being there really helps them
Th old mafia consisted of guys who were already established, The new mafia has Magnus and Joe who really haven't done a whole lot in wrestling like other guys in TNA
Joe has
Greatest stable in wrestling history!!!
early nWo IMO takes this title and while MEM definitely draws a little bit of inspiration from nWo, MEM was one of the best stables of all time.
I knew Joe was a big possibility, i never argued that he wouldn't be a member! Only said it depends on how he will be used in the BFG series! So that would tell me there are no big plans for him in the series so he will be able to focus on MEM stuff!
Why is Aries not an option? That whole thing with Suicide could be a setup to him joining the MEM, because i'm sure he will be viewed as the face vs. Bully Ray!
Matter of opinion? Their accomplishments speak for themselves, its a fact!
hope finally shines
finally after 4 years the Main Event Mafia returns!!!
If you listen closely you can hear the new theme in the background all along its perfect
That's it! Couldn't think of his name for a second
good times....
The Main Event Mafia had so many Years of experience with the members in it combined.
Awesome; Finally a version with the talking in the background...GONE! :)
this is sick!
The Best tag Team in tna History
I actually just noticed that now too, probably because TNA doesn't play their themes loud enough (they probably should considering the no crowd reaction sometimes lol).
I just wish they would cut out whatever that guy is saying, "Biya Biya", "Mia Mia", it sure as heck doesn't sound like "Main Event Mafia". Sounds like a sound byte from an SNES game.
I hope after this storyline ends mem take over tna for themselves
Imagine Fortune vs the Main Event Mafia. Coincidentally Fortune was similar to the TNA Frontline cause they were younger members warring with the more established names. And AJ Styles was part of both groups
MEM is coming back, the way things look.
THERE COMING BACK BEST MOVE TNA HAS DONCE SINCE 2009 !!!111!!!
I think this theme made the MEM what it was lol. who can forget the show starting then.. BAM! MEM theme song.
Peak TNA
Ah, Father James Mitchell's and Raven's stables. Wasn't watching that much TNA back in the early 2000's when they were around but I do remember Serotonin with Raven, Divine and Kaz. I think there was someone else but I can't think who it was right now
I LOVE MAIN EVENT MAFIA !!!!!!
i knew it thanks for the spoilers in a good way ;)
Personally, I think that Sabin might be in it. This is because I think he'll give up the X division title in exchange for a shot at Bully Ray, and then the MEM will offer to keep Aces & 8's from interfering in the match.
Tna mainevent mafia💗
Its possible but not saying for sure is one member of the new MEM may be Rob Terry and,of course,don't be too surprised if Jeff Jarrett joins in with the MEM
i love this music and they r my fave group
you sir can predict the future O.o
yes your right that's what the original main event mafia was about! as in for doc i see him as a world champion one day if he screw up. as in for Joseph park is a fmr nwa world champion under his other ring name abyss!
aces & 8's also1 hell of a great stable.
Fortune could be there greatest faction ever if they just made them more horsemen-like....every group in history took ideas from others. It's a way of life
So the first member we know for sure in Angle! If they stick to the model of the stable and have all main event caliber guys, other members could be Matt Morgan, Samoa Joe, Jeff Jarrett, Abyss (i know Scott Steiner has burned some bridges in TNA but he could still be a possibility if they decide to bring him back)...and for some reason i keep thinking Roode and/or Aries! Not saying ALL of them, but i wouldn't be surprised to see any of these guys as members!
Looks like Joe is returning to his roots, IIRC he was a mafia hitman when he first arrived in ROH.
Very true, can't believe I forgot to add them to the list
i lov this song!
Sounds a bit like the "Song of Healing" from Majora's Mask.
Yes it is because of Eddie.
Its about time Aces and 8's come to a close
Well, knowing TNA's "Creative" (noted the quotes around Creative) he's probably going to be in the group, you know trying to find his brother Abyss and when He does come, he'll miss him and all that, kayfabe and shit
Aww x thanks x
This song + Blue Meanie dance = great TV
also remember aj is with noone hes turned his back on tna and the aces& 8s roode and aries are in the bfg series and jarrett just works behind the scenes
gotta say marked out a little when I heard the start of this song a few weeks ago when Sting confronted Bully Ray
@scorpiofire424 I am suprised TNA never released 'The Main Event Mafia Story' DVD where its has most of there promos and matchs plus imterviews with all 5 orangal members
Would have been cool as I would pay alot of money for it
lol main event mafia,, those were the days!!
Sounds like a theme from WCW/Nwo Revenge on N64
that be awesome Kevin Nash,Kurt Angle,Booker T,Sharmell,Traci,Samoa Joe,Amazing
Love the mafia!!
They are apparently going to return in a few weeks and feud with Immortal
Owh i guess you are right. Though i always thought the original plan was for MEM to return and Fortune would stay a part of Immortal. But hey, i guess it was just rumours.
2013 Mafia vs WWE Nexus who wins?
If U would like to see a WWE version of the Main Event Mafia, who would you put in it.
Fortune was originally planned to join MEM but booker and nash went to the wwe .
remember when crimson was beating up abyss and kept sayin' "they are coming"
well it was planned to be fortune+MEM but it was canceled.
love the song

great theme
There will be a 3rd...there will prolly be between 4-6 guys total to complete the stable!
Well, Morgan and Crimson are heels and I'm thinking the new Main Event Mafia are going to be faces, and maybe Abyss will be in the group instead of Joseph Parks, like Parks will be in the group a little while and then he's going to go missing and Abyss returns and all that stuff
Best stable and theme
Yh. !!! They would be unstoppable also jeff hardy and james storm and gunner !
