Ok I think I know the answer to this but I want to be sure...
I have doom in play in front row and three T. Monks in support.
you have nightcrawler and say the 3 build wolvie.
You attack one of my T. Monks in my support row with Nightcrawler. We both pass on the declaration. You exhaust to initiate the attack.
Now I play child of Velaria (think thats the name) stunning a 2 build or less I choose your nightcrawler. Now stunned characters card text is inactive.
So, would he still be able to attack seeing he doesn't have the ability to attack as if he had ranged and flight? (guess is yes as the attack was already declared and nothing can stop it)
Another scenerio Juggernaught is attacking and he gets stunned would his ability to deny reinforcement still work. ( card not in front of me so can't look at to verify wording)

( desperatly trying to find a way to make a control deck with the way these rulings are going)
In your first scenario, you just wasted a plot twist. Once the attack is initiated, Nightcrawler is unstunnable. Play A Child Named Valeria when the attack is announced and things go your way.
As for Juggernaut, the support row defender he's attacking cannot be reinforced as soon as the attack begins. Since you cannot reinforce after the attack begins, stunning him makes no practical difference as far as reinforcing your defender goes.
ok bad example with Nightcrawler forgot about the anti stun thing so replace with Archangel.
And you can't play Valeria first the target must already be exhausted.
Question still remains does the attack continue if the attacker is stunned.
Juggernaught plays into your post about Cyke and Crystal. Since he says "while" attacking. If conditions are in fact checked at beginning of the attack and at resolution then him being stunned means his card text is no longer active and therefore will not come into play.

Stunning an attacker after he's exhausted but before the attack resolves would qualify as removing the attacker so the attack is canceled.

This is a timing issue. Once the attack begins, it cannot be modified, only negated. Play Burn Rubber first and there's no issue.
If the Attacker or Defender is stunned or removed from play before the attack resolves, it is no longer part of the attack.
If the attacker is no longer part of the attack, the attack is cancelled.
As for Juggernaut, same rules apply, if he gets stunned, the attack is cancelled and reinforcing becomes a mute point. If he is part of a team attack, the rest of the team will still attack, but Juggernaut ability will no longer be in effect.
