One of the most shocking things in Wrestling history right there. Nobody expected Hulk to turn heel after so many years of the squeaky clean babyface gimmick. But that was excellently pulled off and started in my opinion one of, if not the best era in the history of the business

Until they started adding everybody and their mother. yeah i forgot to add that... although i didn't mind seeing guys like rude, hennig, hart, dibiase hell even virgil in the nwo, because they were all from the wwe. but guys like norton, bagwell, fake sting, nick patrick, yeah we could've done without.

I think this was the only angle WCW ever did on Nitro that outclassed the WWF. The NWO storyline was tired by the start of '97, but the summer of "96 was a magical time to be a wrestling fan.

They took a lot of risk and balls in doing that, and boy did it pay off a hundredfold.

i dont care what anybody says about wcw...... but the nwo was pure genius. They only thing which kept WCW = nWo, but I think the thing which killed it was the amount of superstars in the stable! The only thing I mostly liked about nWo were the promos!

I envy those people in the building who got to experience that without the 'heads up' from Heenan. Still agree with everyone else about it.

I love Bobby.....but he ruined it by starting to yell "WHO'S SIDE IS HE ON?"....sort of made me expect Hogan would turn.
WWE has actually started editing him saying that out of their DVD's.
It was a still a shock and one of the most important moments in wrestling history, but it just ruined it a little because I'm sure it never even crosses some people's minds until Brain said it.
