Adam Copeland (the future Edge) wrestled a couple matches for WCW around this time under the name Damon Striker.You may wish to likewise begin bringing in young talent from Mexico to fill out the Cruiserweight division. June 1996 saw the beginning of the influx of luchadores into WCW, beginning with Rey Mysterio Jr.McMichael had been serving as a commentator for nearly a year and may become a full-time addition to your roster Greene is still an active NFL player at this point. In real life, the Great American Bash (your first PPV on June 16th) featured a tag match between the Horsemen (Flair and Anderson) and football players Steve McMichael and Kevin Greene (with Randy Savage in their corner).The Stud Stable (Jacques Rougeau, Pierre Ouellet, Dick Slater, Bunkhouse Buck, The Mauler - w/ Col. The Horsemen (Ric Flair, Chris Benoit, & Arn Anderson) The Dungeon Of Doom (Kevin Sullivan, The Giant, Meng, The Barbarian, Big Bubba Rogers, Konnan, & Hugh Morrus - w/ Jimmy Hart) The Blue Bloods ('Lord' Steve Regal, 'Earl' Bobby Eaton, & 'Squire' David Taylor - w/ Jeeves) The Armstrong Brothers (Brad, Steve, & Scott Armstrong) The Public Enemy (Johnny Grunge & Rocco Rock) The Nasty Boys (Jerry Sags & Brian Knobbs) The American Males (Marcus Alexander Bagwell & Scott Riggs) The Amazing French Canadians (Jacques Rougeau & Pierre Ouellet)

Rock N Roll Express (Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson) The Booty Man (w/ The Booty Babe aka Kimberly Page) Shows: Monday Nitro (2 hours - live), WCW Saturday Night (2 hours - taped), monthly PPVs Hall and Nash must be the initial members of the group but everything else is up to you. Start from the beginning and do it your way. Maybe it was the Fingerpoke, maybe it was Starrcade, maybe it was one member too many. Somewhere the nWo angle - a great concept - went awry. The nWo would split, fued, give us the infamous Fingerpoke Of Doom, reform, bloat in size, split again, reform again, and linger onward seemingly forever including a return in WWF due to Vince McMahon. But things went awry with Nick Patrick botching a fast count and Bret Hart being involved. The peak of nWo angle should have been Starrcade '97: Sting at last faced Hogan. The nWo got their own PPV (Souled Out in January 1997), won a team match at Uncensored '97 allowing them to challenge for any title at any time (a stipulation eventually forgotten), and ran roughshod over WCW with run-ins, group beatdowns, and spraypaintings of fallen wrestlers and the WCW Title (held by Hogan). A fake Sting and War Games '96 lead to Sting's famous change in outfit and a year lurking in the rafters and pummelling people with baseball bats. More members joined, they fueded with the Horsemen and various other WCW wrestlers, and 'bought' commercial space to show cut grainy, edgy promos. Alledgely, Hogan as the third man wasn't set in stone till the PPV itself - Sting was seriously considered to be the defector. Late in the match, Hulk Hogan ran in to apparently help WCW only to legdrop Savage and reveal HE was the third man! Delivering another famous interview while being pelted with garbage, the New World Order was formed. At Bash At The Beach in July, they faced Sting, Randy Savage, and Lex Luger with their third man as yet unrevealed. The duo would be interviewed at Great American Bash in June by Eric Bischoff, to whom they denied WWF employment (for legal reasons) before powerbombed Bischoff through a stage. Two weeks later, Hall would be joined by Kevin Nash. He delievers his famous 'You want a war?' speech and challenging the three best WCW wrestlers to a match. May 27, 1996: Scott Hall - last seen earlier the same month in WWF as Razor Ramon - shows up on Nitro and interrupts a match. TNM 3:16 - Circuit Ideas - WCW ': Rebooking The New World Order
