The one thing nWo and WCW was missing was a stable to challenge the nWo. It was just them beating niggas up for two hours every week, that shit got boring. They needed a rival stable to go to war with, a rival stable to challenge their dominance.
And fuck WWE for making that documentary an hour long. Watched it on Netflix last night...smh
I didn't realize though how many people just jumped aboard the train. They got too full of themselves and killed the nWo. They should've kept it at 3 minimum - 6/7 max. All that extra shit was not needed.
nWo could still be alive today if they didnt recruit all of WCW. Props to Booker for not getting in.
The whole set was wack. Documentary was wack, match selection was wack (except DDP/Savage).
I've always been more of a Horseman fan myself but the nWo was cool....for about 6 months then niggas like Scott Norton and Virgil started joining up and it was all downhill
Goat impact woat longevity......if it wasn't for sting being the crow that shit would of got stale in like 3 months at best.
Still a great time in wrestling, happy I was at an age where I could enjoy it and now look back at it, feel bad for these kids today with whatever they put on WWF etc, shit sucks.
Once Sting who was the face of WCW joined then it was a wrap. When people like Scott Norton, IRS,Horace Hogan and Disco Inferno joining just put a nail in the coffin. But 1996 to the end of 1997 was the GOAT in wrestling
it lost the point of what the nWo was supposed to be about and jus became a power trip between Hogan and Nash.
if they woulda kept the original premise intact it coulda worked out better
as it dragged on it became the worst type of stable, a stable for the sake of having a stable. a stable with no purpose.
a stable is supposed to be a group of guys who challenge for belts and maintain belts at any cost.
2 - tag champs
1 - top belt guy
1 - mid level belt guy
1 - gimmick belt guy like a cruiserweight/hardcore/tv title
1 - manager
thats 6 guys and 4 if u leave off the last 2 guys.
when u have 25 guys in a stable you defeat the purpose.
you cant have 8 guys all claiming to be in the same stable but all competing for the tv title.
shit jus makes no sense
Hell I didn't even know Dusty Rhodes was in the nWo. I watched it on Netflix too and thank goodness I didn't buy it. Best to watch all the youtube videos. The 4 Horseman parody they did still is classic, which DX bit off of trying to joke on Nation Of Domination.
It should've been just Hogan,Hall,Nash, Steiner,Six, and Savage. Should've disbanded once Sting beat Hogan at Starrcade. They also should've put over Benoit, Eddie, Jericho, and Mysterio from time to time.
Vince thought he could capitalize on what it once was, too bad it was way too played out.
Although I will say, when it first came to the WWE, I was hype. The disease/cancer thing was cool, then it was stale once again, especially because they were just too old, flabby and fat.

WCW had other up and coming stars to that weren't utilized to their full potential like Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio, etc.
