Size of the nWo

By Scott Keith on March 23, 2019

Was the nWo always supposed to have gotten as big as it did, or was it originally supposed to have been around 5-7 guys? I can't believe Hogan, Nash, Hall, and Bischoff wouldn't foresee that adding scrubs like Bubba Rogers, Michael Wallstreet, Vincent, etc. would water down the group/concept. Then again…..

Yeah, I dunno. I guess it depends on which point of view you're taking. If you're talking about the tradtional wrestling stable, then it was going to be fine with 7 guys or whatever. But they always had the plans to turn it into a separate "promotion" in mind, based on Bischoff's copying of the Ishingun concept from Japan, so I think it was probably inevitable that they'd add more guys so they could run their own shows and stuff later on. I don't think anyone goes into anything thinking "we gotta add Scott Norton and Mike Rotunda!" but shit happens.
