The Cabinet is a professional wrestling stable that is based on World Wrestling Entertainment's SmackDown! brand. It was created by John "Bradshaw" Layfield shortly after winning the WWE Championship at The Great American Bash 2004.
Current members
The group is organized like a presidential cabinet. The trademark of the group is the "Longhorn" pose, where each member raises their arms at an angle and positions their hands flat resembling JBL's Texas longhorn symbol.
- Leader: John "Bradshaw" Layfield
- Chief of Staff: Orlando Jordan
Titles
John "Bradshaw" Layfield won the WWE title at The Great American Bash 2004, and kept it until WrestleMania 21 during this time he set up The Cabinet. This reign lasted nine months, and consequently JBL is the longest-reigning WWE champion of this decade. JBL defeated many WWE giants during his reign, including Eddie Guerrero, The Undertaker, Booker T and Kurt Angle.
Orlando Jordan won the WWE United States Championship, after picking up a controversial win over former champ John Cena on March 3, 2005. This is his first title reign of any kind since his debut. Jordan and JBL later "destroyed" Cena's Spinner belt.
While Co-Secretaries of Defense, the Basham Brothers picked up their second reign as WWE Tag Team Champions on the Jan. 13 edition of SmackDown! when they eliminated Rob Van Dam & Rey Mysterio in a Fatal Four Way elimination match that also included the teams of Mark Jindrak & Luther Reigns and Booker T & Eddie Guerrero.
Future
The future of the Cabinet seems to be in doubt. After the firing of Amy Weber and the resignation of the Basham Brothers (who were then split in the WWE Draft Lottery), it has dwindled down to JBL and Orlando Jordan.
Former members
- Image Consultant: Amy Weber; left the WWE
- Co-Secretaries of Defense: The Basham Brothers (Doug and Danny Basham); quit The Cabinet on the June 16, 2005 episode of SmackDown!
