Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Fortune (originally spelled Fourtune) was a Power Stable in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling which started in 2010 and came to an end in late 2011, formed by Ric Flair and prominently led by AJ Styles.Flair first came to TNA on January 4, 2010 as part of the massive influx of name value talent courtesy of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff coming in, and didn't take too long before striking up an alliance with then-World Heavyweight Champion (and face of the company) AJ Styles, with Flair being AJ's manager and mentor. AJ would adopt Flair's lifestyle, cheating ways, sequined entrance robe (albeit with a hood), and even a couple of his moves as tribute, while Flair kept AJ on top until he lost the world title three months later to Rob Van Dam. Shortly thereafter, recently-returned former X-Division Champion Kazarian came into the picture, and he and AJ started fighting over being Flair's top guy to the point they couldn't work together long enough to beat Jay Lethal—until Flair introduced the solution: take AJ, Kaz, and fellow Team Flair allies Beer Money Inc. and Desmond Wolfe, and give them the chance to come together under the modified Horsemen banner of Fourtune.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Desmond's losing streak ended up keeping him out of the Fourtune lineup, while the Core Four (as they referred to themselves) were soon joined by Kaz's rival and X-Division Champ Douglas Williams, along with Matt Morgan as Flair's personal bodyguard, to make up the numbers against a band of ECW Originals who would henceforth be known as EV2.0 due to trademarks on the company name. Fourtune hated EV2 for the perception of their being overrated Garbage Wrestlers as well as outsiders taking spots away from the guys that built the company. (Also during this feud: the spelling of the stable name was tweaked to its more known version because everybody kept pointing out that they had more than four wrestlers.)After virtually dominating the feud with EV2 and joining with Hogan and Bischoff's latest rehashing of the nWo to get the power to fire most of the Hardcore crew, Fortune contained most of the titles and most of the credibility within the Immortal alliance. And on February 3, 2011, when real life wrote the plot, they took that credibility and turned on Immortal with it, costing then-Antichrist Heel Jeff Hardy the World Heavyweight Title. The ensuing feud kept true to Fortune's original purpose, turned them into the faces the crowd always believed they were, added the return of Christopher Daniels to join the stable when they needed someone to fill in for AJ heading into Lethal Lockdown, led to a litany of noteworthy moments which had TNA diehards jumping for joy, and set the seeds up for the future character directions of all involved (although Flair missed out on much of the awesomeness, as he chose Immortal over Fortune).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Said future character directions took hold with the group's gradual disbanding in late 2011, what with the latest installment of Daniels Betrays AJ Styles Over Envy and Pride being arguably the best one yet (particularly as it led to Kaz and Daniels forming the infamous duo known as Bad Influence), Bobby Roode returning to his heel roots as one of the best proudly selfish win-at-all-costs villains wrestling has had in years, and James Storm and AJ Styles being compelling players with constantly sympathetic storylines, trials and tribulations, while having all-too-brief flirtations with the World Heavyweight Title. As for Flair, he would, as the pattern goes, return to WWE as an ambassador in the aftermath.As usual, The Other Wiki has a more extensive article on the history of Fortune. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Unintentional, but it still counts. Flair was originally saying "They" were Fortune during the initial Immortal conspiracy. Cue Ironic Echo when the "Them" that Kurt Angle and Crimson were promising would come after Immortal heading into 2/3/11 turned out to be Fortune making their move. | |

Four Is Death | |
Fortune (Wrestling) / int_471a505f | comment |
Four Is Death: The concept of the stable was inspired by Flair's former stable The Four Horsemen. The first four members referred to themselves as the "core" four members. Even after the members list became more than four, they continued to invoke the trope, what with the logo with two 4s and the theme song saying "Fortune Four". Oh, and there were eight actual members total in the history of Fortune (8 = 2 x 4). | |

Motive Decay | |
Fortune (Wrestling) / int_52c0c7cf | comment |
Motive Decay: Flair's defection to Immortal caused this big time for his role in TNA, both in-universe and out. In-universe he betrayed his own plans to both finally defeat Hogan once and for all and to remake the Horsemen with TNA homegrown talent and proved it was all about the power for him. Out-of-universe he seemed to float around with no purpose, as there wasn't exactly much potential to elevate amongst the Immortal ranks, what with the one young rising star in Gunner being lost in the shuffle at the time. He was such an ineffectual member with Immortal that people were speculating he was being The Mole to help either Fortune or Sting with taking out Hogan, but this never materialized. | |

Mook Horror Show: On the July 14, 2011, edition, Sting (who's been "coincidentally" mimicking Heath Ledger's "Joker" with his new makeup design) set loose a small group of clown-masked minions on Immortal. What follows pretty much played out like a slasher flick, with the clowns picking off Immortal one by one. Gunner even attempts to invoke Final Boy on them, which fails. The guys under the mask? Turned out to be Fortune. | |

Fortune (Wrestling) / int_89a17726 | comment |
Spell My Name with an S For the stable's first few months, the name was spelled "Fourtune" in honor of The Four Horsemen. However, since more and more people pointed out that the stable has six people in it (seven if including Flair) after including Morgan and Williams, it was switched to "Fortune". To make matters worse, exempting Flair in that number would become pretty dicey considering that he, against all common sensenote what with him being a flabby old man who, aside from being the mastermind of this group, two years earlier had just had a hearty retirement ceremony after losing to Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24, would occasionally lace up the boots and get in the ring himself. | |

This was while Jeff Hardy was World Heavyweight Champion. | |

Popularity Power: Probably the most popular (or at least the most unanimously well-liked) faction in the history of TNA. | |

Undying Loyalty | |
Fortune (Wrestling) / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: Kazarian especially. It wasn't until after the stable died that Daniels convinced Kaz to reserve it for him and vice versa. Also, the group's purpose had this in spades to TNA, what with the core four being instrumental pieces in the company for years and Styles and Storm in particular having been there since day one. | |

Running Gag | |
Fortune (Wrestling) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Flair being "iced". Meaning that a member of Fortune left him a bottle of Smirnoff Ice hidden and every time he found it he would have to chug it back. Flair happily complied every time. | |

The Dog Bites Back | |
Fortune (Wrestling) / int_fb3576b2 | comment |
The Dog Bites Back: Treating AJ Styles and Matt Morgan like crap came back to haunt Eric Bischoff, as it caused Morgan to pull a Heel–Face Turn on him as well as solidified AJ and Fortune's plan to form the first real threat to Immortal. Between this, Sting's return, and Jeff Hardy falling off the wagon, Immortal stopped being The Illuminati of TNA and started really being, ironically, the disjointed pseudo-ripoff of the original nWo that fans saw them as all along. | |
