Agreed. The main problem is the NWO never got their comeuppance. It's Writing 101, when a stable like that takes over in kayfabe and puts everybody down, the only logical resolution is the opposing faction brews their revenge spits everything back at the NWO's face. But Bischoff is too much of a fan girl and Hogan had creative control so they forgot basic storytelling.

On the Starrcade video, I talked with someone else in the comments about how they could have used the main event to split the nWo. With Nash no-showing the event, if Hogan were to lose cleanly to Sting, Hollywood could unleash his anger at the other members for not coming out to run interference or help him, and especially Nash for not even appearing. I'm 22, so I wasn't able to watch the Wolfpac era and I understand people liked it at the time, but they could either have gone into the Wolfpac then and there or they could have completely disbanded the nWo by having them implode. Furthermore, my personal opinion is that having the nWo booked as strong as they were from the start and for so long was extremely risky. It was almost like saying, "Two guys from the other wrestling company can instill fear into our entire roster and overpower everyone" which is a bizarre message to send and surprises me with how well it was received by the fans.

The biggest problem with the nWo was that it put the spotlight mostly on aged WWF talent, even though Hall and Nash had been to WCW before they got over in WWF, and looking back at it they sacrificed the rest of the roster. They had great "home grown" guys, but only really elevated DDP and Goldberg, when they had so much more talent than those 2, and Eddie Guerrero and Chris Jericho had to leave to realize their ceiling.

The thing about there being too many members. It made sense considering that their gimmick was to be more than just another faction but an invading force trying to take over, with faces and heels on the WCW side in unison against them. I know you mentioned that some of the more "questionable choices" were probably made with the nWo show in mind, but regardless of that show not pulling the ratings they had hoped for, I do at least see where they were going from the storyline perspective. They were trying to appear to be something more than just another WCW stable, at that time. That was one of the major differences of the whole nWo thing. I wouldn't have had as much of an issue with the "split" and the "Wolfpac" if they had done it differently. They fired Syxx, broke up Hall and Nash, and put people like Lex Luger in it (only because he was a big name), whose character really just didn't belong or fit the intended group vibe. The glass ceiling for younger talent was very annoying at the time, though. I don't blame the ones who left for the WWE and what was greener pastures back then.

Another problem with the nWo that occurred to me while watching this, namely their lack of cruiserweights and younger talent. They had Waltman and Konnan (at least when they weren’t injured or no-showing), but for the most part the faction was full of midcarders either past their primes or that worked more traditional “rasslin” styles. Imagine how differently they would’ve been perceived if they had guys like Guerrero or Jericho in the mix.

If they kept it down to a reasonable number of members and had a payoff with the heels eventually losing, it'd have worked. But everyone got beaten up by then and simply joined them the next week. B/c the group was so big, they sucked up all the oxygen in the room and cost a lot of guys chances. Also, Crispen Wah.

@wrestlingbios What I love about your channel is that you get right to the point, unlike channels like What Culture which spends more time trying to be funny with dumb jokes than getting on with the topic. God bless you sir with great content, tone, pacing, and detailed programing.

Loving the fact your creating diff types of videos... 10/10.... Videos like this are well interesting to me, keep it up 👊

Well since you did videos for Raven in ECW, WCW and WWF you should do his TNA/Impact career. The Career Of Kurt Angle would be incredible as well.

I love the ministry of darkness and I’ve known some of their big problems too, I think a ministry problems video would be really interesting

I would love to see a video about the Fabulous Freebirds, the Freebird Rule and teams and factions that have evoked said Rule through the years. Keep up the good work!

Been keeping up with your videos for a while. This may be my favorite. Great work.

NWO was perfect at first, but for me personally it got played out in early 97

Played out in early 97 ? They had just on a roll

A black and blue nWo was planned with savage as its head. It was gonna be nWo madness with savage,Sid,scott steiner and the other members of team madness from 1999 but it never materialized.

I would like to see a segment on the LWO. While brief, I always thought it was a interesting angle. Great video as always, thank for your time!

Egomania running wild, brother!

Everything was good until they start letting any and everybody into the group

They just saw the future and took a cue from Finn Balor's Balor Club is for everyone, though Balor meant that in a spirtual sort of way to refer to his fan club and those associated with The Bullet Club, I think nWo took that the wrong and meant that all the boys SHOULD be included haha

I think Hogan, Nash, Hall, Steiner, Konan, Bagwell an Norton should have been it. Bagwell deserved a better push imo and Norton could have been like an enforcer type like Arn Anderson. Syxx would have been cool but he fit better in DX.

You mean to tell me Ed Leslie and Vincent weren't the backbone of the NWO?

I remember, when I was a kid, really digging the nWo at first. But eventually my brother and I were captivated by the antics happening on WWF - just thought the characters were more entertaining. I remember tuning into WCW occasionally after awhile and just being so confused...seemed like everyone was in nWo, then there was the Wolf Pac and just...yeah, a mess.

Another fantastic video. I'd love to see one about the late-90s WWF faction "The Oddities". I was always really interested by them, but they had a pretty short run overall.

We are all truely waiting for u to do the highly anticipated video on the one any only, GILBERG

Awesome video keep them coming!

Thank you for making this video. You stated precisely why the NWO may have been a great idea but also shot itself in the foot. This was a well made and well researched video.

With Evolution being mentioned, is a video about Triple Hs so called "Reign of Terror" possible?

Can anyone remember actually seeing a 'Fake Sting' match? He must have had the cushiest job in all of wrestling, he just stood around in the background and occasionally took a Scorpion Death Drop!

He did wrestle pretty regularly in New Japan at the time, but I can't actually remember any match he wrestled in WCW.

I’m so glad I came back to this channel

Your videos are ridiculously entertaing...love em bro...keep it up

Big ups wrestlingbios

1. Glacier wasn't the third man. 2. Glacier wasn't the fourth man. 3. Glacier wasn't the fifth man and so on

I am less than 5 seconds in and already dropped the like. Thanks for ALWAYS bringing great content.

I really hope this channel makes a video about Ernest "The Cat" Miller sometime in the near future, that would be awesome. 👏🏽🍿💪🏾

There's a timeline where Scott Hall was the main player of the nWo, Sting beats Hogan clean at Starrcade, and WCW won the Monday Might Wars.

Not likely. Hall wasn't the type to politic his way into being the top guy, Nash was but without Hogan they wouldn't have made such an impact. The AOL-Time Warner merger meant WCW was on an inevitable death clock no matter if they won the war or not. The executives wanted wrestling gone.

They were good for 6 months until everyman and his dog became a member

I miss the nWo Wolfpac. When they managed to get Sting on board, I just flipped out. Best period of pro wrestling EVER.

Amazing work as usual

Where can I get a longer version of the intro NWO remix?!

Imagine the PPV they buys they could have in a "Winner takes all match" Like the WWF's 2001 Survivor Series. WCW vs NWO During a whole PPV and in the end it is a tie, With Nash Hall and Hogan vs Sting , Macho Man and Goldberg/Luger in the main event for the final match. End it in the same match where it started.

The initial nWo invasion is my favorite wrestling storyline of all time. I didn't even mind when all the people were joining because it reminded me of a virus or an outbreak, lol (I'm a zombie movie fan), and I quite enjoyed how the announcers would get paranoid, and freak about who might be next! But its a great point about ending the story (so important!) and how they set up things perfectly for Sting to do it going into Starcade '97. As for if nWo dies we wouldn't get the Wolf Pack, I think they could have still done it. Just after a break for a while. Hell, they probably would have been even more over if the Wolfpack was nWo's big resurrection- not unlike DX 2.0.

I always thought Ed Leslie as The Disciple was his best gimmick throughout his career

Wrestling Bio’s is a absolute legend Another tremendous video just like the rest of them Wrestling Bio’s is my number 1 KZread channel now & the timing could not be better You are providing nostalgia for people like me and also in crazy world these days this channel provides a much needed escape from the day to day headaches I love you Wrestling Bio ❤️

Something I feel would be an interesting video down the line, possibly at the end of Reliving the War: using Glacier as a case study/omen for why WCW fell apart. Convoluted storylines (Blood Runs Cold), holding onto stuff for too long (the huge delay in Glacier's debut), failing to fulfill announced cards/good booking (Glacier was announced to debut in July and subsequently did not), and major funding issues (Glacier's entrance and attire being ridiculously expensive for a midcard guy).

The nWo was special, my dad before he died loved them, we loved them together. Thanks for this and reminding me of the good times I had with him brother!

Scott hasll was my all time favorite in the 90's as Razor Ramon and Kevin Nash was quite articulate for a big guy which made his mic moments hysterical, but when I seen them one night on WCW before they announced their 3rd member so I hung onto watching it to see but I was hooked after it was Hogan. Thus my NWO 4Life journey began and had me glued to the TV every Monday night for 4hrs (6 when they extended the show by an hr). One of the best parts of NWO before they got too big (which I agree, when they where at 24 members I was like "UUGGGGHHH!!! WAY too many!") was having the crooked ref in their corner with slow counts for NWO members pinned and the ref fighting another ref for their job. That was a great angle. I also wish they would have kept it to 7 working guys- Hogan, Hall, Nash, 6pac, Giant, Norton, and Bagwell with Trillionaire Ted as the manager w/Virgil. I would have used the Giant as Heavyweight Champ, Hall/Nash tag champs, 6Pac Cruiser-weight champ, with Norton/Bagwell as intercontinental champs (one or the other) but also a back-up to the tag titles. Holding all the gold and using grimy tactics to keep it With Hogan I would have had Trillionaire Ted DiBiassi make a (fake) solid gold NWO Champion belt like he did with his WWF run, The Million Dollar Belt! Only in this case a twice yearly match for it would take place to see who would run NWO for those 6 months I dunno, All I know is NWO 4LIFE! And i'm blazed....

Scott Hall will always be missed. ❤️‍🔥

Whether a WWF or WCW guy, 1988-2004 was the greatest time for wrestling fans

That was great, thank you as ever !
