I think the main problem aside from a lot of the members being essentially groupies, just sitting and walking around backstage doing really nothing, was there was no strong babyface to oppose them. Goldberg got neutered and Sting was taking time off. No one else was built to join the main event scene at the time. So they were too overpowered and it became too one sided to hold enough fans' interest. It was different when the nWo first formed in '96 and were really fresh and exciting.

[@craigbiggam2111]

Was the perfect time for a wwf star to jump ship and be that perfect babyface.. Would be confusing after he joins the nwo 3 appearances in

Fully agree with both these takes. Hart could’ve had some great matches in WCW and been a catalyst to main event storylines. Neither of those things happened.

[@DuecePiece]

They also had a red hot DDP, but I definitely understand what you're saying. Some of those nWo members should have actually been the opposition but it just became a giant circle jerk in the blink of an eye, brother!

[@anthonyanderson9303]

@@matthewsmith5374 Yup what they should have done was had Hard run through a bunch of the lower level nWo guys through the first half of '98, eventually leading up to matches with guys like Hall and Nash, and then finally we get Hogan-Hart at Starrcade '98. In the meantime I would have held off on the Goldberg main event push until the beginning of '99. This would have given him more time to gain experience as he was still seriously green, and he could have kept the undefeated streak longer. Two birds with one stone.

[@matthewsmith5374]

@@anthonyanderson9303 well….I think I would’ve kept Bret Hart far away from Goldberg in retrospect on account of the career ending injury he got from working with him ONCE. Outside of the nWo as well Hart could’ve had some great matches and angles; Bret vs DDP, relive an old feud with Bret vs Kurt Hennig, put a stable together and have the hart foundation vs the 4 horsemen in a war games match, Bret vs Jericho and Bret vs Raven before they left. Bret vs Mysterio, Bret vs Eddie, and they never did have a proper blowoff for the storied Bret vs El Dandy feud they were hyping on the hotline so much….So many matches could’ve happened but didn’t because they made Bret a whiny heel with a broken leg. He was a good heel but a much better baby face and he came in with so much white hot heat, even if he didn’t get hurt like he did they wasted 3 years of his services they could’ve spent getting talent and the overall product over.

The most frustrating thing about this time in WCW: WAY too many face and heel turns. Kevin Nash had the most here, going from face to heel after the Fingerpoke of Doom in January '99, then turning face again after DDP's heel turn and World Title win in April, then back to a heel after Hogan came back in July and beat Savage for the World Title. Then there was the Hogan and Flair double-turn at Uncensored (Flair turning heel, Hogan turning face).

[@wolfpacindahouse1]

Also while Hogan and Nash both turned Face in April, Scott Steiner who was still on tv despite not wrestling due to his injury still was coming out with the Wolfpac music was a heel and later inducted Rick into the Wolfpac even though it was over.

[@mikeroagreschen5350]

I felt like during the last 18 months or so of WCW (so pretty much the time when Russo was the booker), there were far too many "tweeners". And I felt like WCW wasn't listening to their fans at all as far as who should be a babyface and who should be a heel. An example is Goldberg. What was accomplished by turning him heel?

[@danielrierson6683]

Well it was for Goldberg to get revenge on the wolfpac elite basically. Sting turning heel was to get revenge on Bret and hogan screwing him in 98 just didn’t execute lol

[@DarkDestroyer98]

The most frustrating thing about the nWo (all of it's iterations) was that there was no obvious plan to end the angle. It was just one long regurgitated story which they tried to keep milking as long as possible. Eric on his podcast has talked about there being a beginning, middle, and end to angles before just as their are in any story. Well there was a beginning and a middle to the nWo---but no ending. WCW should have come together and finally ended the threat of the nWo once and for all. Hogan either going away for awhile and coming back as Hulkamania for "one last run" etc. But SOMETHING should have been done to end this and move on to other things. Eric has also admitted to being poor at match finishes---well this evident with all the run in and showed this. It's a shame because WCW NEEDED to "win" this war and they never did. Also Hogan continuing to wear black and white while supposedly the leader of the Wolfpac Elite :P

[@mikeroagreschen5350]

The WWF knew (usually) when it was time to end an angle. Stone Cold vs. Mr. McMahon was THE feud of the Attitude Era. But it was running out of steam by mid-1999 especially after Vince was revealed as the "Greater Power". So they did the smart thing and ended the feud at Fully Loaded 1999. WCW didn't seem to understand that the nWo was passe after three years of it.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

Exactly right. They kind of shifted over to the McMahon-Helmsley regime later that year with the Rock being the main protagonist, especially once Austin went out. Of course by the time you get to WM 17 and Austin shaking hands with McMahon, that was officially the end of an era.

Have nWo Hollywood cut down to just Hogan, Bagwell, Steiner, Henning, Hall, and Norton. In storyline, it's written as Hogan getting frustrated. Have the Wolfpack continue as is. Goldberg continues to beat every nWo member in championship matches. Eventually, it appears that WCW is winning the war and the nWo is on its last legs. Then book a triple threat with Goldberg, Hogan, and Nash. Then swerve everyone with the nWo unification. Have the nWo capture all the titles. Then have a winner take all match at war games.

I still popped in to see what Sting was doing from time to time in 99 but after the FOD and the end of hollywood vs the wolfpack I was a full on wwf fan from there on out

[@JamesMMcCann]

The clips at around 03:00 Hennig is wearing Rick Rude's brown suit!

[@jaronzennaiter]

How TF was Virgil/Vincent still employed at this point? Dude got paid to do nothing

[@kman215]

You always gotta have a black guy

[@anonamatron]

He wrestled now and then on Saturday Night.. Maybe house shows?

[@AntiHeroWithHeroTendencies]

Vincent was just a HUGE mistake in the nWo . . . He was used as a crash dummy-- getting beat up long enough to give Hogan, Nash, and Hall time to escape Thanks, Vincent-- for making NO memories of your time in the wrestling business

[@kennywright1021]

3:14-3:16 LOL when Hogan raided a middle school students wardrobe.

[@toddrichardson8595]

Hogan's here, Hogan's there, Hogan's Everywhere! Hogan Hogan Hogan!!

[@ferriswheeler08]

2:00 ''..and the world heavy weight championship had been disgraced..'' oh just you wait!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@bluntforcetrauma2141]

David arquette comes to mind

[@kwajotube]

I LOVE YOU!!! THnx for the WCW/NWO videos, I'm re-living my childhood!!!😎

[@DaveFromVh1]

Lmao Scott hall dancing with the cattle prod at the beginning

[@MsfPW89]

Nash and Hogan, KWAB. WCW would probably be still floating if it werent for those 2

[@seanbean3826]

The joy of finding a new to you video on @wrestlingbios is nice.

[@alexl.4362]

I would say Bishoff is to blame. He let Nash and Hogan basically take over. Always wanting to be the main man, not wanting to put anyone over.

[@peterzavala8322]

You should do a series on Curt Henning rise and fall with his runs in the AWA , WWF , WCW , wwe return and his tna runs

[@zemox2534]

He already made a Mr Perfect video

[@CarterHayes77]

Markyd123 did his wwf return and tna run going through each match. I recommend
