Can anyone break down a history of the nWo? The more detailed the better (members coming and going). I remember the third man angle, I remember the wolf pack and I remember nWo and nWo b-team. I just can't remember how it ended. Then I think it came back for a little big. And I don't know how that one ended either. It's like a book I never finished.

Jerusalem posted:It didn't. At one point nWo people stopped showing up on the shows as nWo people, then they'd get back together only to disappear again, then it all started up in WWF as well. Finally the nWo ended with an announcement from Vince McMahon that they were now done and that was that. What happened between the red/black/white nWo following the Finger poke of doom and the one with Bret Hart and Jeff Jerrett in it? The commentators acted as if it was this big reunion. I never understood how we got from the inclusion of the wolf pack to the silver and black.

Dawgstar posted:Is Hogan's Mr. America run regarded fondly? (I know Jericho does, but he was part of it.) I loved the Mr. America run because of how much they leaned into the absurdity. It's the same reason Elias and his mysterious brother trolling the gently caress out of Kevin Owens is good. Like what I actually liked about it was being in on the joke and watching the bad guy get really mad that everyone was gaslighting him

I remember when Stevie was working the Velocity show with an gimmick that he was with Victoria and unlike everyone else he dressed up like her and seemed like her valet. They played it like look at this girly dude he's such a loser he acts like the woman. And all I thought was man these two are really cool I love how supportive he is.

It is really kinda wild how fast that company died. Compared to TNA which found a way to survive in one for or another, or modern day companies that just are too big to die it's kinda wild how WCW went under

I think I hate the on air authority figure. There have only been two good ones - Mr. McMahon (only from like 98 - 99) and Dario Cueto. Eric was probably the worse maybe only beaten by Russo

When I see these old shows with what looks like literally just a front row around the ring I can't help but laugh at the folks who laugh about the small crowds at AEW shows on twitter.

I only ever saw Kevin Sullivan post 96 wcw so seeing him young and what he was doing is wild. I can safely say if I watched young kevin sullivan when I was 14 he would have been my favorite dude.

even more than that - gently caress ecw fans for how they treated him at one night stand and especially gently caress joey styles for saying he should kill himself on commentary.

I posted it in another thread but since it came up here's the quote from DDP on that reddit in case you don't want to click level 1 RealDDP OP · 1 hr. ago Mach didn't say things like this to ANYONE...not because he was a dick or anything, he was just that old school introverted closed off type that kept to himself and left everything bottled up inside. The closest thing I had to him opening up, was the hug he gave me for leaving him a voicemail on Thanksgiving telling him I was thankful for him in my life. This video resurfaced just in time for the anniversary of Halloween Havoc 1997, the final match in the feud of Randy “Macho Man” Savage vs DDP… The other day I was thinking, Man I wish Randy did at least one shoot style interview talking about our 1997 PWI feud of the year. Mach didn’t do any sit down interviews that were shoot style. Then my buddy Sean found this interview. Turns out to be from the WCW Superstar Series. A collection of VHS tapes WCW put out in 1998. There were so many wrestling vhs tapes being made then, I never would have seen just a random bio tape. It's pretty wild to hear these powerful words posthumously from one of my heroes who helped make my career. RIP Randy. DDP
