nWo, New World Order, last seen on Raw after Vince
McMahon brought the stable back, and later killed it,
hopefully for good this time. Question, what would the
WWE be like today if the nWo stable was still around? If
Scott Hall was never fired would the group still be taking
names and kicking butt. There is no doubt about it the
nWo was the best and biggest stable ever in wrestling
history, not even DX, which was the WWE’s version of
nWo in that day, could compare.
No one could have ever predicted on Monday night at
Nitro when Scott Hall appeared, what him being at WCW
would lead to. What it did lead to is the best most
remembered storylines ever in prowrestling. Week one
Scott Hall appears on Nitro saying he is there to take
over. Week two Kevin Nash appears on Nitro along with
Scott Hall saying the same. The two superstars adopt the
name of Outsiders.
After months of beating WCW stars and attempting to
take over the show as the New World Order, a third man
is revealed. Bash At The Beach, a WCW Pay Per View
will always be remembered as the night Hulkamaniacs
cried, the night everyone went to bed shocked, and the
night no wrestling fan in the world could beleive. Hulk
Hogan turned on Sting, Lex Luger, and Randy Savage
becoming the third member of nWo, and that was only
the start of what everyone was afraid to see happen.
nWo now with “Hollywood” Hogan took over WCW
beating anyone and everyone that did not approve of
them. Next we saw Ted DiBiase, Giant, Vincent, Buff
Bagwell, “fake” Sting, Scott Norton, Big Bubba, and
Syxx. Together they would dominate the business and
WCW was the most watched program, because most
wrestling fans wanted to know, could nWo take over
WCW.
Eric Bischoff then joined the group, the group even had
their own PPV Sold Out. Then we see Randy Savage join
then Curt Henning, when he shockingly turned on Ric
Flair and the Four Horsemen, even basketball player
Dennis Rodman joined the group. nWo was at the top of
the business people loved them, more hated them, but no
one would ever forget them.
Finally what was believed to be the start of the end for the
nWo. Kevin Nash and Randy Savage start their own
version, known as Wolfpac, leaving Hogan, Hall, Nash
and the rest as Black and White nWo. So then there is
WCW and two nWo’s. What happened next came after
various storylines both nWo’s died out by 2002. We then
witness the nWo return when Vince McMahon brings
them back to WWE stating he wants to kill what he
created. We see the three original 3 members, Hogan,
Hall, Nash, together again, then Nash gets injured and
Hall gets fired. Shawn Michaels, Big Show, and others
attempted to carry on the nWo storyline but was
unfortunately not successful. nWo eventually died again
and is now more then likely a great memory for the old
WCW creative team, and stars. You can not bring back
the dead. Tried it once, obviously did not work, all we
have now is a old shirt with nWo written on it.
What if though by some odd coincidence nWo came
back, is it possible it could help the WWE, but what are
we going to see? a nWo Raw and an nWo SmackDown?
Could happen, for the sake of Wrestling and us the fans
lets hope not. With a failing product bringing back
something old is not what to do; we want new and
creative storylines. Then again that’s only one man’s
theory.
