Never thought about “Syxx” being the 6th member of the NWO. Pretty cool. I always thought it was a reference to the sum of 123. I guess it can work for both.

I loved Sting in the Wolfpac. Even when it didn't seem to fit his style. The ring attire, the red black face paint, longer hair. He looked like he was having the time of his life.

I agree 100%, the nWo Elite stuff was the faction’s point of no return. The Wolfpac/Hollywood split was exactly what the nWo needed to breathe new life into it, but instead we got a year of mediocre booking, an insane few months with Ultimate Warrior, and the world’s worst “LOL, PSYCHE!” swerve ending.

[@systemmonitor5295]

Annoying too as nWo Elite is probably the best lineup they had.

[@lentalofficial]

Eric Bischoff said on an episode of 83 Weeks that Sean Waltman’s name was “Syxx” because “1+2+3=6” - because he was formally known as the 123 Kid. Not because he was the sixth member of the faction.

[@wizardwaluigi8623]

Wow this was a great video man. I think you actually covered them all as well as major events. I just want to say the intros for the orginal NWO memebers was awsome. Reminds me of actual promo videos made. Literally gives you chills and gets you hyped up for even guys like Virgil.

The bWo, lWo, the Band, Bullet Club, and all the other groups that were inspired by or associated with the nWo could have their own video. It would be interesting to examine that aspect of the nWo's influence in wrestling

[@Sir_Osis]

I met Macho Man, Sting, Buff Bagwell and Dennis Rodman at a nightclub in Newport Beach Ca back in 1997. I was a massive NWO fan at the time so I was completely floored and star struck. Everyone was super cool.

Wow that would be amazing. Wow, if only Big Papa Pump could have been there, you’d probably be the luckiest person in the world 💪👍👍

[@jasonbrown9]

This is the best channel on KZbin. Thank you for making it happen!

[@alanguages]

The NWO at most should have been seven members. Hogan, Hall, Nash, then Savage as the 4th member helping Hogan win the title. NWO not attacking the Giant for multiple weeks, then he joins them makes more sense, than what he did out of the blue after Hog Wild. Syxx Pack and Ted DiBiase as the manager. Overall Lucky #7 for the entire group.

[@ArchangelSteve]

I'd also have added a woman, like Madusa, so then you can have the faction hold EVERY belt at one point, makes the faction feel like a big enough threat if there's a presence in every division.

[@trevertravis8963]

Buff Bagwell was a great part of the nWo.

[@alanguages]

@@ArchangelSteve I would agree with Madusa, if Ted being manager is not really counted, since he wouldn't really be physically active. Just like J.J. Dillion was part of the 4 Horsemen, but technically a 5th member.

Instant like. This is the kind of video I want to see! Thank you! For contex I’m 30. So I was a very little kid when all this happened. But I remember my older brother watching WCW around the late 90’s. I became a big fan of wrestling immediately. But after wwe had already died. I was a hardcore fan probably early 2000’s to this very day

[@toshoshi1551]

This is so good brother. I love your channel. 96-98 WCW is easily my favorite. Even more then 98-2001 WWF. I could not watch after the FPOD.

[@scottpearce771]

I can tell that NWO and peak WCW was definitely your favourite era in wrestling and you hold it close to your heart because of the videos you have released and like you said it was very important and in my opinion such a shame that it had to come to an end I don’t think Bishoff ever got over it and wanted it to last forever. Vince ruined it when they came over to WWF the invasion angle could of been best storyline of all time but he never done them justice or WCW again such a shame!

[@andrewft31]

Can’t blame Vince for things out of his control like Hall relapsing or Nash getting injured or Hogan being cheered. All things (outside of Halls relapse) most couldn’t see coming so why expect Vince to see it. Of the three only Hulk was still in ring shape and able to go.

[@kevinchandler179]

[@TheOutsidersEdge]

Great video, a lot of “fans” need to watch this. Nothing irks me more than people seeing Hollywood with the red & black within Elite and referred to him as being in Wolfpack, even with Hall even tho he wasn’t fully in it. I would say you should’ve covered what the different with Wölfpac & Wolfpack were but everything else was spot on.

[@weblin]

Big issue I always has was that the Macho Man was too big to not be the leader of any group he was in, but was never the leader - so he always just felt a little off in all nwo iterations.

[@Cream-2128]

They made it work for a bit. Like him and Hogan had certain promos where it seemed like hogan and savage were going to face flair and piper eventually. Also was perfect for former wwf guys and make them elite.

[@Robman0908]

The only part of Savage in the nWo that made any sense was his former association with WWF. Thats it.

It’s so weird watching this and realizing how many of these legends are no longer with us. Randy Savage, Curt Henning, Rick Rude, Dusty Rhoades, and Scott Hall are some of the top of my head. Huge part of my childhood.

[@jvharbin8337]

Can I just say this because it never gets mentioned. Hollywood Hogan had an awesome action figure. That figure was one of my more favorite to play with. Whether I was into Hollywood Hogan at the time didn't matter it was such a cool fun fluid figure to play with. You could really execute a lot of good moves with that figure.

​@@moviemetalhead He was cool when Warrior stole him

[@DerClouder]

I started watching Smackdown around the time nWo came there and was immediately a fan. We did not have WWF or WCW showing in Finland in the 90's, so when they referenced the history of nWo in the storylines, it subsequently became part of the nWo "mythology" in our schoolyard discussions. The nWo went the way of the dodo not soon after, but i'm glad i at least saw the end of it. Also glad i was part of the second coming of Hulkamania when Hogan started wearing red and yellow again. Good times, good times.

[@nastycanadian1975]

This was a great video. I missed out on a lot of the original NWO as I was still on dialysis in '96 and got my transplant in '97 .... by the time I started watching WCW I didn't know what the hell was going on. Though it got tiring real quick for me. Been watching wrestling a long time when it was actually good, and I understand the upset rule that fans absolutely dispise today but it got a little overboard with the NWO pretty much running the show, interfering in main events EVERYTIME and the whole thing was spiraling out of control before they even knew it.

For some reason my brain just never accepted Randy Savage in the nWo. He should have been WCW til the end. I've said this before and I'll say it again, Randy Savage in the nWo was the equivalent of Austin joining DX on the other channel; although some people may disagree.

[@dangalangman7379]

Am I the only person who enjoyed tf out of Wolfpac Sting?? To me dude legit never looked happier in the ring. Dude was smiling harder than he did as Surfer Sting 😅 he genuinely seemed to enjoy his time in the pack. And tbh the Wolfpac should have never joined back with the black and white. Wolfpac had waaayy more potential and could probably even still be going to this day imo anyway. WOLFPAC IN DA HOUUUUUUUSE 🤘🏻

I know you probably don't follow NJPW too much but there for a while after Muta joined the group, Keiji Muto still wouldn't join the group for a few months which created a pretty interesting dynamic where Muto was NJPW but Muta was nWo.
