With Survivor Series and NXT: War Games II just around the corner, the WWE appears to have taken a renewed interest in stables over the last couple of months.

With Raw's main event scene currently being dominated by the rivalry between the trio of Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and McIntyre, and The Shield and NXT's focus on the main event of their upcoming War Games event, stables have never been more popular in the WWE.

Rumours have also begun to circulate that the WWE intends on doing a 'stable warfare' themed night at this year's Survivor Series, and if that is the case, then you can expect to see a few more factions popping up on the main roster in the coming months.

As it stands, the WWE currently has 9 active stables across four shows on their roster, a stable being a team that consists of three or more wrestlers working together. With that in mind, let's take a look at those nine stables and rank them from worst to best.

#9: Forgotten Sons

While The Forgotten Sons have been featured on recent episodes of NXT, making notable contributions towards the on-going Aleister Black negotiations, the group are yet to connect with the NXT audience in any meaningful way.

With former TNA/Impact star, Gunner wrestling for the group, there is a chance they may get a little bit more exposure on television, but given that they have done nothing of any real note during their two years with the company, I wouldn't count on it.

#8: Sanity

Poor Sanity. The group were one of the hottest acts in NXT during their run on the brand but they have quickly faded into obscurity on the main roster.

The group's arrival to the main roster was announced on the Superstar Shakeup following WrestleMania but their debut was delayed for one reason or another and as a result, the group arrived on SmackDown with zero momentum.

Since making their debut, the group has had a brief and forgettable feud with The New Day and taken part in a tag-team number 1 contenders tournament.

Thankfully, the group consists of three very talented performers and hopefully, their in-ring performances will help get them noticed by WWE's creative team.

#7: The Riott Squad

The Riott Squad made their debut on the WWE main roster in November 2017 and have quickly gone to establish themselves as a staple of the women's division in the WWE.

While the group is yet to achieve any sort of major success in the WWE, they have been ever present on WWE programming and have mostly impressed with their in-ring performances.

Their charismatic leader, Ruby Riott shows plenty of promise as a singles star in the future, and the group's other two members, Sarah Logan and Liv Morgan could potentially be one of the hottest teams in the long-rumoured women's tag-team division.

#6: Lucha House Party

If you've spent any time watching 205 Live this year, then chances are you will have watched at least one match featuring members of the Lucha House Party.

The trio, which consists of Gran Metalik, Kalisto, and Lince Dorado has been ever-present on the show this year and featured in several of the brand's best matches in 2018.

Unfortunately, the group is unlikely to get anywhere near the main roster, which is a shame given how talented all three performers are.

#5: Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler, and Drew McIntyre

While this team, who has also been known as 'The Dogs of War' is not likely to be a long-term stable in the WWE, their current impact on the Raw main-event scene is undeniable.

The group are currently locked in a feud with The Shield, which is set to come to a head at this weekend's Super Show-Down event in Australia and following that, Braun Strowman will challenge Roman Reigns for the Universal title in a triple threat match featuring Brock Lesnar at the upcoming Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia.

The group, alongside The Shield, has been key to bringing stables back into the main-event scene in the WWE, and they will likely play a very big role at this year's Survivor Series event.

#4: British Strong Style

British wrestling has never been better than it is right now, and when Tyler Bate, Trent Seven, and Pete Dunne aren't busy dominating the British wrestling scene with companies like Progress, they are putting on some serious match of the year contenders for NXT.

Their program with The Undisputed Era has been one of the hottest NXT feuds Of the year so far, and things are only going to get better with Wargames II just around the corner, while Pete Dunne's reign as UK champion has been nothing short of outstanding.

With the launch of the WWE's NXT: UK brand on the horizon, there is no limit as to just how far these three men can go in the WWE.

#3: Undisputed Era

The Undisputed Era are the MVPs of NXT. The group, which consists of Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, Bobby Fish, and Roderick Strong, have taken part in some of the WWE's best matches in 2018, and their stock continues to rise week in, week out.

Led by Adam Cole. the group made their debut in NXT towards the end of 2017 and have gone on to dominate the brand ever since.

Their list of achievements in their first 12 months is nothing short of exceptional, and it is surely only a matter of time before they make their presence felt on the main-roster.

#2: The New Day

It seems hard to remember now, but when The New Day made their television debut in the WWE back in 2014, the group were not well received by the WWE universe.

The group's original gimmick saw them acting as gospel-inspired heel characters and the concept never managed to get over with the WWE's fanbase.

The group quickly realized that, however, and quickly changed up their gimmick, embracing the goofier aspects of all three men's personalities, and the rest, as they say, is history.

The group has gone on to become one of the most successful groups in WWE history, both inside the ring and out of it. Their merchandise sales are among the highest in the WWE, and the group has gone on to win five tag-team championships.

The New Day is the reigning tag-team champions on SmackDown, and while there were rumours that the group was going to break up earlier this year, the future still looks very bright for these three superstars.

#1: The Shield

There is no doubt about it, The Shield is one of the greatest stables in the history of the WWE.

The group's original run in the company between 2012 and 2014 is one of the hottest streaks in the history of wrestling, and the success of all three men following their initial break-up is a testament to just how impactful the group has been in the WWE.

While their 2017 run was cut-short thanks to various injuries, their run in 2018 has, thus far, been a success. The group are currently sat at the top of Raw feuding with the trio of Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and Dean Ambrose, and while their run is destined for a fairly quick break-up, it's awesome having them back on screens each and every week.
