We were all so psyched for this..we ordered it...played some video games and had to see who the third WWF guy was gonna be. When Hogan turned..it was such a damn shock. It energized pro wrestling overall.

Watched this live as a jit. Still the GOAT stable and not a classic match to their name. Presentation and beatdowns was off the charts so nothing else mattered.

I was so sure Luger was playing possum after the accidental stinger splash and was gonna be the 3rd man. ..

To have had a Coli / social media at that time woulda been anarchy.


25 years and I remember that shyt like it just went down.

Scott hall was untouchable at this point..lol. His mocking was the best after they did the mock 3 count on Savage.

Nash would've saved himself some time if he would've said "Everyone except DDP and Goldberg."

According to Wikipedia, there were 62 members.

My dad gave me a DVD copy of Bash At Beach 96 back in 2007 and it got me hooked on WCW, I needed to follow the NWO story after that

Same here. I truly thought it was gonna be another Luger heel turn when he was stretchered to the back. But only the rednecks down south couldn't see that it was Hogan the second he came down the ramp.

Say what u want bout Hoegan but the NWO from 96-98 was the best thing that ever happened to wrestling

Then again that corny shyt he pulled at Starrcade 97 was the WOAT

Outside of that tho, my point still stands

It is the best thing that happened to wrestling - it forced the WWE to get more gritty and eventually debut with the Attitude Era.
