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.

Too many early deaths, most in their 40s. It's a damn shame, guys.

[@mikedepue]

Exactly what I was thinking. There's almost more dead members of nWo than there are alive ones.

[@igottwopeepees]

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.

[@maxdecphoenix]

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.

[@Gameboytri77a]

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.

[@Cabsmell]

Don't forget WWE NWO HBK, and Booker T

[@HasH0196]

Bret Hart was never in NWO Hollywood. He only worked with them. Almost like DDP working with Wolfpac. Hart wasn't an NWO member until he, Jarrett and The Outsiders reformed the group in late 1999.

[@rogerchavez6215]

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."
