What Happened To EVERY Member Of The NWO?
Спорт
Let us look back at the original nWo (New World Order), before it broke off into splinter groups and weaker derivatives both in WCW and the WWE. Let's examine the members of the original group that existed from summer 1996 to spring 1998 - who they were, what they've done since, and where they are now.

I was a teenager in the crowd, right near where the wrestlers entered, at that show in Macon Georgia where Scott Hall first appeared in WCW, and it blew my mind, as well as Everyone else in the arena. It was so crazy! Kayfabe hadn't really been broken then, and we didn't know about the inner workings of the companies.

So sad about him passing, I miss that guy.
It’s so sad how every time you watch any kind of old school wrestling, half the guys are dead. I’ve watched tag team matches from like 99-2000 where 3/4 guys are dead and they all woulda been like 50 or younger.
RIP Scott Hall. Forever The Bad Guy. ❤
How about nWo Japan? The Great Muta also got a few matches in WCW.

I know man. What makes me feel bad is when I was a kid I didn't have any internet and I wasn't subscribed to any wrestling magazines or anything like that. I watched wrestling and had to take it for face value at the time. So I would be cheering and screaming during a match loving that the guy I hated was getting whooped on. Then a couple decades later during a nostalgia binge, I discover the guy I was so happy got beat - got severely hurt for real and nearly died or at least ended their career.

Yea, well, that's what tends to happen to drug addicts, they die. Most of the morons I know who fell in with drugs and gangs didn't even make it to thirties... so is probably better to think of these guys as drug addicts who died later, than wrestlers who died early.

You missed Great Muta, and a bigger miss is Stevie Ray, he came in after Steiner and was the leader of NWO b-team at one point. Plus Bret Heart was part of the Hollywood faction. From there - Disco Inferno, then the Wolf Pack members - Lex Luger & Sting. That’s relevant because you spoke of Konan’s best performance in the wolf pack. The b&w also added Horace Hogan. Furthermore, if you want to get technical then you need to include Jeff Jarret and others from the black/silver NWO faction in 2000.

Best time in wrestling. I switched channels and taped WWE,since Nitro started first. WCW was awesome then and the NWO was totally mind blowing. Scott Hall is my favorite wrestler. Great times!
Great video, but unless I misunderstood the qualifications for the given timeline, it's missing Knobbs, Sags, Muta, and Tenzan.
Scott Hall should have been a World Champion hands down in WCW and WWE for sure to bad it never happened
Scott Steiner looking like Colonel Sanders in his suit at the end of the video is a little disturbing...
This was awesome and the intro was epic lol

Wonderful article. But also a stark reminder of how tragic the life of a wrestler can be.
My earliest WCW memory is Scott Norton coming out and destroying two jobbers on WCW Saturday Night
That intro being similar to the old school pokemon end song is great.
That’s where I heard the intro before! It’s We didn’t start the fire by Billy Joel! Man that was killing me!
Bro your introduction is 🔥
How about a what DID they 5 years ago for this years wrestlemania participants? (Maybe somewhat closer to actual WM and also when we know more about the card)
This new featurette from you guys is pretty good. Also....Pacitti's voice is that of Celine Dion.
This is a great video, but it's also a sobering monument to the way wrestling breaks people and how the 90s were the height of the addiction era.
What an intro i neeeds in my Spotify playlist
That Intro. I'm actually impressed
I like how you mentioned just about all the guys kids, but neglected to mention a certain Joseph Hennig.
That has got to be the catchiest theme song for a KZread video that I've ever heard.
Can they update this? RIP Big Scott Hall ❤🙏
10:22 that is a really cool belt, I love the design of it
I remember the nWo gimmick was the hottest storyline in wrestling from Summer '96 to Starcade '97. The problem was that it became saturated with too many members and it was clear Hulk Hogan was pulling his creative control card whenever it came time for him to push over another wrestler. I remember when Bret Hart came over from the WWE after the "Montreal Screwjob." He looked out of place in WCW and really never gelled with the nWo. Then Scott Hall was having substance abuse problems, showing up to house shows inebriated and unable to wrestle. The kiss of death was the "fingerpoke of doom" match and Vince Russo writing crappy storylines that made no sense whatsoever (e.g., making David Arquette, an actor, the WCW Champion and then Russo himself winning the title on a stupid match in which he was dressed like Lawrence Taylor, formerly of the NY Giants). By that time, the WWE had better storylines and performers (e.g., Steve Austin, the Rock, Mick Foley, members of DX, etc.) which launched the "Attitude Era."
I only came for that intro 😂
I actually would love to know about a lot of the names in the intro song. What's Mantaur up to these days?

It's so fucking sad that most of these ended with "passed away". I hope this current generation of Wrestlers are more looked after by the companies who drain every bit of life out of them!
