NWO

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

[L.Kizzle]

This. Really.

While it was not original by any points (Bischoff got the idea from New Japan Pro Wrestling's Heisei Ishingun), its impact to pro wrestling at the time was incredible.

DX is basically an nWo knock-off. Luckily for WWF/E, they knew better how to have it under control.
They were all from Kliq members.

I was a huge Buff Bagwell fan. (nWo) Buff Bagwell vs (DX) Bad Ass Billy Gunn would have been epic.

[Mamba]

NWO wolfpac >> everything

greatest face stable ever.

actually dare i say it...the greatest stable ever.

Much better stable and storyline

[L.Kizzle]

When thinking of it, the Kliq is still one of the most politically powerful group in pro wrestling history. Let's see......
- Michael Shawn Hickenbottom, while his stuffs in the ring are one of the best ever, always ruins somebody's chance to become something in WWF/E, especially around him vs Bret Hart feud where his jerkassness was at his peak.
- Kevin Nash, arguably one of the most smartest guy in pro wrestling, but always slack his way in to get money and highlight spots for himself and his friends while frequently tearing his bicep.
- Paul Levesque, well, he successfully ****ed the boss' daughter and now is in the succession line of the company. What else?

Scott Hall and Sean Waltman are basically tagalong dudes of the group, but with some lesser successes (Hall keeps getting hired while still being drunk, Waltman has a sex tape with Chyna).
I wouldn't call Hall a tag a long, Waltman yes.

[JohnnySic]

nWo all the way. At least until WCW flogged it past its natural shelf life. The early nWo of Hogan, Nash, Hall, Bischoff, Syxx, fake Sting, Dibiase, and Vincent was the best stable ever. Then they added clutter (Giant, Bagwell, Norton, Brian Adams, Disciple, Horace Hogan, Scott Steiner, etc.) What made the nWo cool was how dominant they were - thay had the rest of the promotion on the run, and brought the "cool heel" into vogue.

I honestly never got the appeal of DX. They reminded me of punks who hang out on street corners smoking weed and throwing bottles. At least WWE was smart enough to make them one angle amongst many successful ones, unlike WCW which had no heels worth caring about other than the nWo.

PS - the red and black Wolfpac sucked. They never did anything, never directly fueded with the black and white, didn't have any critical matches or storylines. The stable was put together to stroke Nash's ego - he wanted to be the top guy, and so did Hogan, so they each got their own nWo.

The original Wolfpac was great - Hall, Nash, Syxx, as a subgroup of the original nWo.

[Batz]

DX. It brought in more ratings and sales overall over any other stable in professional wrestling history. And I was always a HBK fan. My dad was the Hogan stan. :oldlol:

[B-Low]

Gotta say i honestly HATED that they bought DX back the last few years on WWE. They just aren't made for the whole PG era. They seemed less like rebels and more like class clowns, which even aside from the PG era may have been due to HBK's newfound Christianity. But all the little commercials they'd do, all the stuff with Hornswoggle, all the sucking up to the crowd and skipping around...DX was always kinda goofy but it was just too Nickelodeon-goofy to be real DX.

[wally_world]

Gimme the Mean Street Posse :banana:

[IcanzIIravor]

NWO all the way. When they came on to the scene it was amazing and I think helped bring in a new era of wrestling. It forced the WWE to step it's game up and other promotions as well. WCW just got bogged down and let it linger too long.

I don't know if it bought in more rating than the nWo.

[Patrick Chewing]

Yeah DX was created just to combat the nWo cause they were getting killed in the ratings. DX may have made more money since they still sell an extremely watered down version of it now, but during both of their heyday's, the nWo drew in more ratings and provided more revenue. The WWE had a ton of factions back then as well competing against one another, so it was futile to compare sheer revenue against the nWo brand. Hell, I own 4 nWo shirts and a ton of other crap.

Yeah, DX wasn't the rating draw, it was Stone Cold vs. Vince McMahon, than Undertaker, DX, Mankind, (Bret Hart than The Rock.)

In WCW, nWo was the main draw, than Goldberg. (Sting, Macho Man, Lex Lurger al joined some form of the nWo.)

[Dasher]

Degeneration X was cooler for longer. After Hulk Hogan came aboard I began to hate The NWO because of my marked disdain for Hulk Hogan. He ruined The NWO.

Hogan was an original nWo member, he didn't join later on like Macho Man or Scott Steiner.

When it was just Hall and Nash as The Outsiders, The NWO was cool. After Hogan was added, I hated them immediately. I was a huge fan of The Million Dollar Man when I was a kid, and also wanted The Dungeon of Doom to destroy Hulkamania.

That wasn't the nWo yet, just the Outsiders.

Orton was too cool before he came back with those horrendous tats.

Seriously could you build a better group.

Rick Flair - The savy veteran, who'll do anything to help Triple H win his matches and retain as the World Champion.

Randy Orton - The young superstar in the making. You knew he would become champion one day.

Batista - The insurance policy. The big bad killer. He could match anyone strength for strength.

Triple H - The champion who would do anything to keep it. A solid leader and a great heel!

While this was an awesome moment - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiH9o-VvJf0, I really don't get why the group had to end this fast. I guess Orton was becoming too big to stand next to Triple H, but idk, would have liked the group to continue longer. I really miss factions in wrestling, especially WWE.

Had no where near the impact as nWo and DX.

Yeah I remember in sixth grade I gave my math teacher a crotch chop when she turned her back...the whole class ratted on me.:facepalm

[L.Kizzle]

Didn't DX and the Corporation join forces for a short time in the late 90s?

[TheMarkMadsen]

HHH turned heel (bad guy) and joined the corporation.

[Loneshot]

Didn't DX and the Corporation join forces for a short time in the late 90s?

Yes, once. First Triple H went heel again and joined the Corporation. But when DX got back to together, they went Corporate. That's when they kicked Billy Gunn out and had the Run DMC theme.

Nation of Domination was my favourite because they were so funny to watch

NWO is the best, DX is weaaaak

DX was funny as hell. What are you smoking, kid? How could you NOT appreciate Degeneration X? They helped define the most successful era of professional wrestling.

If we're talking the original CLIQUE of Triple H w/ Chyna and HBK? They were awesome. Before Shawn found Jesus, they were hilarious.

Hell, even the 2nd incarnation w/ Road Dogg, Jesse James, and X-Pac was legit. They were bringing the juvenile LULZ every night. And with the whole Suck It thing, it got SOOOO many middle school / high school kids in trouble.

I'd put the OG NWO before all the useless members, when it was Hogan / Nash / Hall on par with the OG DX. Both were truly innovative stables in wrestling history.

This. Bret Hart was one of my favorite wrestlers ever. Crazy that 3/5 of the people in that pic are dead :eek:

[SilkkTheShocker]

DX was lame as f.uck btw. The only guy I liked was Shawn Michaels before he blew his back out and Triple H took over. I don't know how anyone can actually like Triple HHH. The guy was a mid-card talent that got pushed to the top because he f.ucked the bosses daughter. His mic skills are trash and he has almost no charisma at all. Its also well-known that the guy was always insanely jealous of The Rock. To the point where he even tried to blackball him in the WWF before he got big.

DX was the 3rd biggest reason maybe for WWF taking over WCW. Stone Cold was the guy who really did it. The only wrestler I can remember that got bigger oviations than Hogan or The Rock. When I think of 1998, I think of Stone Cold Steve Austin. DX brought ratings, but by that time The Rock was gaining some serious heat. Even when he was a heel, people couldn't get enough of the guy. Maybe the best ever on the mic.

[Lebron23]

NWO. They were the no.1 reason why WCW beat the WWF in ratings from 1996 to 1998.

[Hey Yo]

Flair and The 4 Horseman >>>>>

They're also the reason the WCW died.

The nWo wins because Hogan has complete creative control and he books himself to go over.

WCW jumped the shark when they recycled the same storylines. One of the reasons why Evolution succeeded because they didn't replace their members. By the way I like the feud between Wolfac and Holywood.

There was no feud. They mostly stayed out of each other's way. The split nWo idea had some potential but in typical WCW fashion, it never went anywhere.
