Sorry, I missed the logic behind this suggestion. Why would you want a stance that can only be used by someone holding an axe?
I think there are enough stances to choose from. The only real weapon specific one is Dwarven Battle Stance, and that one is understandable.
Try using Battle Rage or Warriors Endurance as your stance. I think you'll find they both work very well for axe users depending on your build.

Let's put it this way.
Swords are mostly fast - attacking, good damage condition adding skills.
hammers are slow attacking, great damage, KD skills
Axe is medium attacking, great damage, +condition + multiple targets skills.
I see no real reason why it would need a stance, when most stances are worthless in builds such as dwarven battle stance, and there are plenty of stances in tactics and strength.

Axes and Swords attack at the same speed.
Thought you should know that. 1.33 if I'm correct
Stance. For 8 seconds you attack 33% faster while weilding an axe, but take double damage. 5 energy cost and 4 second recharge.
Since the Hammer Stance is attributed to Strength, and the Sword 'stances' (which are skills, not stances) are attributed to Tactics, lets make this one No Attribute.
That should be enough to pacify the request. It can be used by only Axes, which is all they actually asked for. I have a feeling it wouldn't greatly imbalance the game either.

Anyway, try to keep snide comments away about using other stances that already exist.
How about:
Executioner's Stance: (Axe Mastery) 5e 30r - Stance. For 5...15 seconds and while wielding an Axe, you attack 20% slower, but your attacks cannot be blocked, and deal +1...13 extra damage.
Actually, frenzy makes you attack 33% faster. The end result will be a total of 50% more swings, but that is true for any 33% IAS, not just frenzy.

Cyclone Stance. Stance. For 0...1...1 seconds, the next time you move while having an axe equipped, you perform a spinning axe attack striking for +4...10...12 damage to all adjacent opponents. 5 Energy, 4 Recharge, Attribute: Axe Mastery
Terrible skill, but I miss my untargeted axe emote! There's really no reason for an axe-specific stance. The existence of hammer and sword-specific skills doesn't count.
