Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,069 --> 00:00:03,837
- The following announcement
has been paid for
2
00:00:03,904 --> 00:00:05,472
by the New World Order.
3
00:00:05,873 --> 00:00:07,307
New-New World Order.
4
00:00:07,307 --> 00:00:09,243
- Here's
5
00:00:09,309 --> 00:00:10,878
the nWo.
6
00:00:11,578 --> 00:00:12,713
- The New World Order-
7
00:00:12,713 --> 00:00:14,548
one of Sports Entertainment's
most controversial
8
00:00:14,548 --> 00:00:16,950
and influential factions.
9
00:00:17,017 --> 00:00:17,751
- Don't call us.
10
00:00:17,818 --> 00:00:18,785
We'll call you.
11
00:00:18,785 --> 00:00:20,787
- Yeah, it's invitation only
there chicos.
12
00:00:21,788 --> 00:00:24,825
- In the 1990s, this rogue group
of anarchists designed to
13
00:00:24,825 --> 00:00:28,595
destroy WCW would become the
very entity that propelled World
14
00:00:28,662 --> 00:00:32,866
Championship Wrestling surge to
the top of the industry.
15
00:00:32,866 --> 00:00:36,837
- This is nWo country.
16
00:00:37,938 --> 00:00:40,841
- A pop culture phenomenon that
forever altered the landscape
17
00:00:40,908 --> 00:00:42,910
in professional wrestling.
18
00:00:42,976 --> 00:00:45,846
Relive the revolution that was
televised.
19
00:00:46,446 --> 00:00:51,318
In this countdown of the very
best from the nWo.
20
00:00:51,919 --> 00:00:57,558
- nWo for life.
21
00:00:57,624 --> 00:01:00,560
- This is WWE's Greatest
Moments.
22
00:01:03,463 --> 00:01:05,232
- Acknowledge me.
23
00:01:05,299 --> 00:01:06,266
- My God.
24
00:01:06,333 --> 00:01:08,302
Stone Cold with a beer bath.
25
00:01:08,402 --> 00:01:11,038
- This is surreal.
26
00:01:11,104 --> 00:01:12,272
- Look at this.
27
00:01:12,272 --> 00:01:13,273
- He's slammed him.
28
00:01:19,346 --> 00:01:21,715
- Welcome, everyone, to WWE's
Greatest Moments.
29
00:01:21,782 --> 00:01:24,551
I'm Michael Cole, and on this
edition,
30
00:01:24,618 --> 00:01:26,753
we celebrate the biggest
shots fired from the most
31
00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:32,025
revolutionary faction in the
1990s, the New World Order.
32
00:01:32,025 --> 00:01:34,695
The premise was simple yet
brilliant.
33
00:01:34,795 --> 00:01:39,466
WCW would convince audiences
into actually believing WWE's
34
00:01:39,533 --> 00:01:43,270
top superstars were invading
World Championship Wrestling.
35
00:01:43,337 --> 00:01:44,504
Could that happen?
36
00:01:44,604 --> 00:01:46,974
And how would that even be
possible?
37
00:01:51,478 --> 00:01:53,947
- Welcome back live to the
first hour of this edition
38
00:01:54,014 --> 00:01:57,317
of WCW Monday
Nitro on TNT.
39
00:01:58,051 --> 00:01:58,785
Wait a minute.
40
00:01:58,785 --> 00:01:59,519
- But-
41
00:01:59,586 --> 00:01:59,987
- What the hell?
42
00:02:00,053 --> 00:02:00,988
- But what?
43
00:02:01,054 --> 00:02:02,022
- What's going on here?
44
00:02:02,022 --> 00:02:03,423
- Through a series of
circumstances,
45
00:02:03,490 --> 00:02:04,725
Scott Hall became available.
46
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:08,295
He had previously worked in WWE,
became a major superstar
47
00:02:08,395 --> 00:02:09,696
in the Razor Ramon character.
48
00:02:10,664 --> 00:02:14,001
I asked him to come down through
the audience,
49
00:02:14,067 --> 00:02:16,436
and literally bust a match
to the point where the
50
00:02:16,503 --> 00:02:18,772
wrestlers actually
stop performing.
51
00:02:19,873 --> 00:02:21,141
- I'm a little
skeptical.
52
00:02:21,241 --> 00:02:22,876
I mean, I've just
left the WWE.
53
00:02:25,912 --> 00:02:29,983
You people,
you know who I am,
54
00:02:32,386 --> 00:02:36,823
but you don't know why I'm
here.
55
00:02:36,823 --> 00:02:37,724
I'm Razor.
56
00:02:37,791 --> 00:02:40,427
People thought Vince sent me
there.
57
00:02:40,427 --> 00:02:42,195
That's the only reason it
worked.
58
00:02:42,262 --> 00:02:46,099
You want a war, you're going to
get one.
59
00:02:48,001 --> 00:02:49,436
- Look back at the Monday Night
Wars.
60
00:02:49,503 --> 00:02:51,872
When you're in a position where
you have nothing to lose,
61
00:02:51,938 --> 00:02:53,206
you're willing to
take bigger risks.
62
00:02:54,341 --> 00:02:57,944
Every Monday night was just so
much fun.
63
00:03:01,615 --> 00:03:05,152
- WCW fans were hooked, which
led to a ratings reign that
64
00:03:05,218 --> 00:03:08,588
would last 83 consecutive weeks.
65
00:03:08,655 --> 00:03:11,658
The New World Order were
determined to disrupt WCW
66
00:03:11,758 --> 00:03:15,295
status quo by any
means necessary.
67
00:03:18,265 --> 00:03:20,567
- WCW Monday Nitro
68
00:03:20,634 --> 00:03:21,768
ignites once again
69
00:03:21,835 --> 00:03:23,170
as we come
to you live
70
00:03:23,236 --> 00:03:25,872
from the Disney
MGM Studios
71
00:03:25,872 --> 00:03:28,108
in Orlando,
Florida.
72
00:03:28,108 --> 00:03:29,743
- There were some guys
actually having a match.
73
00:03:29,843 --> 00:03:32,079
- From the heavens.
74
00:03:32,145 --> 00:03:33,747
- And they stopped wrestling.
75
00:03:33,847 --> 00:03:35,449
- Please take the camera to the
back.
76
00:03:35,515 --> 00:03:36,149
They need help.
77
00:03:36,216 --> 00:03:36,783
The Outsiders.
78
00:03:36,917 --> 00:03:37,484
- Wait a minute.
79
00:03:37,551 --> 00:03:38,685
We go to the back.
80
00:03:38,752 --> 00:03:39,686
There they are.
81
00:03:39,753 --> 00:03:42,155
- They got baseball bats.
82
00:03:42,222 --> 00:03:43,256
- People always ask me,
83
00:03:43,356 --> 00:03:47,194
"How can 3 or 4 people take
over a company?"
84
00:03:47,260 --> 00:03:48,995
You got baseball bats in your
hand.
85
00:03:49,062 --> 00:03:51,364
It's pretty easy to be in
control.
86
00:03:52,432 --> 00:03:53,567
- Wait a minute.
87
00:03:53,633 --> 00:03:57,037
Everybody's left the ring here,
and there's Rey Mysterio.
88
00:03:57,104 --> 00:03:58,305
- Hey, he dove off-
89
00:03:58,405 --> 00:03:59,406
- That's Rey-
90
00:03:59,473 --> 00:04:01,141
There's the cruiserweight
champion, Rey Mysterio.
91
00:04:01,241 --> 00:04:02,309
- Oh, no.
92
00:04:02,375 --> 00:04:03,543
Oh.
93
00:04:03,643 --> 00:04:06,413
Head first into the trailer in
the back.
94
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,481
- He threw him like he was a
dart.
95
00:04:07,547 --> 00:04:08,281
- That's real.
96
00:04:08,348 --> 00:04:09,316
- Uh huh.
97
00:04:12,185 --> 00:04:13,787
- There's no special effects.
98
00:04:13,787 --> 00:04:18,391
It's a man being thrown head
first into the side of a truck.
99
00:04:19,059 --> 00:04:21,962
It felt like a real chaotic
takeover.
100
00:04:22,028 --> 00:04:24,397
- There's gonna be some justice
here.
101
00:04:24,464 --> 00:04:26,433
- Two things sell, sex and
violence.
102
00:04:26,500 --> 00:04:28,969
We couldn't do sex, but, boy, we
could be violent.
103
00:04:30,537 --> 00:04:33,106
- Somebody call an ambulance,
please.
104
00:04:33,607 --> 00:04:36,309
- We had no idea that that thing
was going to work.
105
00:04:36,309 --> 00:04:39,312
Local residents called police
and fire rescue,
106
00:04:39,312 --> 00:04:42,048
that there was a riot going
on and the police
107
00:04:42,115 --> 00:04:44,351
and paramedics and stuff
arrived unscripted.
108
00:04:44,417 --> 00:04:45,185
They weren't part of the thing.
109
00:04:45,252 --> 00:04:46,586
They showed up on their own.
110
00:04:46,586 --> 00:04:48,822
- We apparently have some very
serious injuries.
111
00:04:49,222 --> 00:04:51,725
- 2 or 3 people really got
damaged that night.
112
00:04:52,225 --> 00:04:54,127
- All of us are shocked here.
113
00:04:54,494 --> 00:04:55,862
- It was on the Associated
Press.
114
00:04:55,862 --> 00:04:58,265
"Former WWE wrestlers invade."
115
00:05:04,504 --> 00:05:09,142
- But before the nWo flip the
script and the bad guys became
116
00:05:09,242 --> 00:05:10,810
the coolest thing in pro
wrestling,
117
00:05:10,877 --> 00:05:13,413
the burning question was,
who was the mastermind
118
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,748
behind the smash success?
119
00:05:15,415 --> 00:05:17,284
That's our number eight
selection on the countdown.
120
00:05:19,619 --> 00:05:22,255
- Monday Nitro, we are coming to
you live
121
00:05:22,355 --> 00:05:24,624
here on TNT.
122
00:05:24,624 --> 00:05:25,425
Hello everybody.
123
00:05:25,492 --> 00:05:26,626
I'm Eric Bischoff.
124
00:05:26,693 --> 00:05:29,196
- On air, Eric Bischoff
was the lead
125
00:05:29,262 --> 00:05:31,898
play by play
announcer for WCW,
126
00:05:32,499 --> 00:05:36,903
but he was also known
to be the president of WCW.
127
00:05:37,003 --> 00:05:41,842
- We're going to do everything
in our power at WCW to try to
128
00:05:41,908 --> 00:05:47,514
get Roddy Piper to sign for the
match, to take on Hulk Hogan.
129
00:05:47,581 --> 00:05:50,417
- Tell me something.
130
00:05:50,517 --> 00:05:51,718
You, you piece of [bleep],
you are-
131
00:05:51,785 --> 00:05:52,352
- Oh, no.
132
00:05:52,419 --> 00:05:53,687
Oh my God.
133
00:05:54,421 --> 00:05:57,624
- The guy in charge of the whole
show.
134
00:05:57,624 --> 00:05:59,125
- Oh, no.
135
00:05:59,593 --> 00:06:00,794
- I just don't believe it.
136
00:06:01,127 --> 00:06:03,830
- Reveals himself as a member of
the nWo.
137
00:06:04,598 --> 00:06:06,666
- You can make people feel,
138
00:06:06,666 --> 00:06:11,071
and then turn on a dime and
become vicious and dangerous.
139
00:06:11,071 --> 00:06:12,973
That's an interesting character.
140
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:16,943
- Now that everybody realizes
141
00:06:17,043 --> 00:06:20,046
who everybody's working for-
142
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:22,949
- Once he turned heel and
came with us-
143
00:06:22,949 --> 00:06:24,384
-that's always the big thing to
do,
144
00:06:24,451 --> 00:06:26,152
is get the boss
in your faction.
145
00:06:26,620 --> 00:06:28,455
He was great.
146
00:06:28,555 --> 00:06:34,861
- This guy here was the
foundation of the WCW.
147
00:06:34,861 --> 00:06:36,162
- The nWo was that-
148
00:06:36,229 --> 00:06:37,831
"Yeah, they were kind of bad
guys,
149
00:06:37,898 --> 00:06:41,668
but they were bad guys you wish
you could hang out with."
150
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:45,839
- When Eric Bischoff came out,
he was really the boss of the
151
00:06:45,906 --> 00:06:49,242
nWo and was the one that let us
run amok.
152
00:06:50,310 --> 00:06:52,679
Oh boy, did it make people mad.
153
00:06:52,746 --> 00:06:55,315
And it made our band of gypsies
just even dirtier.
154
00:06:56,950 --> 00:07:00,353
You're a loser fighting a losing
battle.
155
00:07:01,021 --> 00:07:02,155
- People were saying,
156
00:07:02,222 --> 00:07:04,591
"Well, how is the nWo getting
away with all this stuff?"
157
00:07:05,392 --> 00:07:11,765
- nWo Nitro for life.
158
00:07:11,831 --> 00:07:13,166
- The guy that's running the
company is actually
159
00:07:13,233 --> 00:07:14,234
in business with them.
160
00:07:14,301 --> 00:07:15,635
That's how.
161
00:07:15,702 --> 00:07:16,469
- Sickening.
162
00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:17,070
This is sickening.
163
00:07:17,137 --> 00:07:18,638
Absolutely sickening.
164
00:07:19,205 --> 00:07:21,508
- It just made sense and I knew
it'd be fun.
165
00:07:22,042 --> 00:07:22,909
- Did you see what I saw?
166
00:07:22,909 --> 00:07:23,743
Was that-
167
00:07:23,843 --> 00:07:25,078
- I still don't believe it.
168
00:07:25,145 --> 00:07:25,812
- I'm gonna go throw up.
169
00:07:25,879 --> 00:07:26,479
- Association.
170
00:07:26,546 --> 00:07:27,547
- I'm gonna go throw up.
171
00:07:31,384 --> 00:07:32,519
- Wrestling has a long history
with mainstream
172
00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:34,220
late night television.
173
00:07:34,321 --> 00:07:38,958
And in 1998, the nWo crashed the
set of The Tonight Show.
174
00:07:39,025 --> 00:07:40,593
It's our number seven moment.
175
00:07:43,263 --> 00:07:44,230
- We have a great show tonight.
176
00:07:44,297 --> 00:07:45,065
My first guest-
177
00:07:45,065 --> 00:07:47,000
- Historically,
The Tonight Show
178
00:07:47,067 --> 00:07:49,369
is the single
biggest franchise
179
00:07:49,436 --> 00:07:51,671
in American television.
180
00:07:51,738 --> 00:07:53,039
- Let's see what
he's talking about.
181
00:07:53,106 --> 00:07:55,308
- And by the time
we got to the 1990s,
182
00:07:55,375 --> 00:07:57,544
Jay Leno had
taken over
183
00:07:57,644 --> 00:08:00,447
as the undisputed king of late
night
184
00:08:00,513 --> 00:08:01,715
and the host of
The Tonight Show.
185
00:08:01,781 --> 00:08:04,384
- Well, did you see WCW
wrestling on Monday night?
186
00:08:04,384 --> 00:08:05,585
I didn't see wrestling.
187
00:08:05,652 --> 00:08:06,586
Okay?
188
00:08:06,586 --> 00:08:08,688
I was in my Jazzercise class.
189
00:08:08,755 --> 00:08:11,358
- I get a phone call from the
executive producer
190
00:08:11,424 --> 00:08:13,226
for The Tonight Show.
191
00:08:13,293 --> 00:08:17,364
He'd like to get Jay Leno
involved in Nitro.
192
00:08:17,430 --> 00:08:19,065
- I said, "What?
193
00:08:19,065 --> 00:08:20,433
Are you kidding me?"
194
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:21,401
- You know something, Leno?
195
00:08:21,468 --> 00:08:23,403
You're a real stupid little man.
196
00:08:23,470 --> 00:08:25,038
We were going to be on The
Tonight Show, and we just pulled
197
00:08:25,105 --> 00:08:26,673
you in the back and said,
"Hey, man, we need to just kick
198
00:08:26,740 --> 00:08:27,874
you off your own set."
199
00:08:28,274 --> 00:08:29,709
Look, I'm tired of this.
200
00:08:29,776 --> 00:08:31,511
- Hey, hey, hey, hey,
wait a minute.
201
00:08:31,578 --> 00:08:33,947
Wait a minute
202
00:08:34,047 --> 00:08:36,783
- What?
203
00:08:36,883 --> 00:08:37,717
[yelling]
204
00:08:37,784 --> 00:08:38,318
- You want some from me?
205
00:08:38,385 --> 00:08:38,918
- Yeah, yeah.
206
00:08:38,985 --> 00:08:39,419
You want to go?
207
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:40,353
You want some?
208
00:08:40,453 --> 00:08:42,422
- Jay Leno really never lets
anybody sit
209
00:08:42,422 --> 00:08:44,224
in his seat or take over.
210
00:08:44,224 --> 00:08:50,397
- Hey, welcome back to my nWo
Tonight show, along with my
211
00:08:50,463 --> 00:08:54,667
favorite guest, a man I know
each and every one of you love
212
00:08:54,768 --> 00:08:56,503
just as much as I do.
213
00:08:56,603 --> 00:08:57,504
[crowd cheers]
214
00:08:57,604 --> 00:08:58,471
- Get out of here.
215
00:08:58,538 --> 00:09:00,240
- Then Diamond Dallas Page came
out.
216
00:09:00,306 --> 00:09:01,474
- I got a friend of yours.
217
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:03,676
Diamond Dallas Page, kick him
out of here.
218
00:09:03,743 --> 00:09:05,111
- Hey.
219
00:09:05,111 --> 00:09:05,845
What are you doing?
220
00:09:05,912 --> 00:09:06,880
Get off of him?
221
00:09:07,313 --> 00:09:11,184
- It was shot on the main stage
of the world,
222
00:09:11,184 --> 00:09:15,622
and it gave WCW a whole
nother visibility.
223
00:09:16,256 --> 00:09:18,058
- Take him down to the old folks
home.
224
00:09:18,158 --> 00:09:20,260
[crowd cheers]
225
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,596
- The Tonight Show takeover was
the perfect example of the nWo's
226
00:09:23,663 --> 00:09:26,766
breakout success in pop culture.
227
00:09:27,834 --> 00:09:31,805
In the 1990s, there was no one
in the NBA more controversial,
228
00:09:31,871 --> 00:09:34,174
more dirty than The Worm,
229
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,910
Hall of Fame forward Dennis
Rodman.
230
00:09:36,976 --> 00:09:39,112
During the New World Order's
dominant run,
231
00:09:39,112 --> 00:09:42,115
Hollywood Hulk Hogan and Eric
Bischoff recruited the
232
00:09:42,182 --> 00:09:45,585
polarizing personality to join
in on the fun.
233
00:09:48,388 --> 00:09:49,756
- Back then, I think
a lot of people
234
00:09:49,823 --> 00:09:51,024
didn't know
how to
235
00:09:51,090 --> 00:09:52,959
comprehend what
I was doing.
236
00:09:53,026 --> 00:09:55,428
They didn't realize that I was
actually being an entertainer.
237
00:09:55,495 --> 00:09:58,364
- The newest member of the nWo.
238
00:09:58,431 --> 00:10:01,201
You've definitely earned your
colors, my friend.
239
00:10:01,634 --> 00:10:04,003
- The job may be bigger than me,
but you know what they say,
240
00:10:04,070 --> 00:10:07,073
the old cliche, the bigger they
are-
241
00:10:07,140 --> 00:10:09,108
[crowd yells "The harder they
fall."]
242
00:10:09,175 --> 00:10:11,211
- I was afraid the wrestlers
were going to kill him
243
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:12,912
because he didn't have any
respect for the business.
244
00:10:14,547 --> 00:10:16,783
- Tonight, the Giant and Lex
Luger
245
00:10:16,883 --> 00:10:19,118
against Dennis Rodman, The Worm.
246
00:10:19,185 --> 00:10:23,990
- Ladies and gentlemen, the
ultimate bad boy, Dennis Rodman.
247
00:10:24,824 --> 00:10:25,792
- Well, there he is.
248
00:10:26,192 --> 00:10:27,427
It's electric.
249
00:10:27,427 --> 00:10:29,462
- And then when we go to the
live event and that red light
250
00:10:29,529 --> 00:10:32,499
came on, turned into a super
athlete.
251
00:10:33,933 --> 00:10:34,567
- Wow.
252
00:10:34,634 --> 00:10:35,768
- He just arm dragged Lex luger.
253
00:10:35,835 --> 00:10:37,670
Dennis Rodman has armdragged
254
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:40,073
The Total Package.
255
00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:41,674
- It was just really fun,
aggressive.
256
00:10:41,741 --> 00:10:43,109
And it was just right in your
face.
257
00:10:43,176 --> 00:10:44,077
- He knows what he's doing.
258
00:10:44,144 --> 00:10:44,911
- Sent him into the ropes.
259
00:10:44,978 --> 00:10:46,880
- Oh, how about that?
260
00:10:46,946 --> 00:10:47,914
Look at Dennis Rodman.
261
00:10:48,715 --> 00:10:49,782
- As a performer in the ring,
262
00:10:49,883 --> 00:10:51,751
once I saw that, he had the
instinct, I went,
263
00:10:51,818 --> 00:10:53,553
"Okay, now I'm good."
264
00:10:53,620 --> 00:10:56,923
- One of the stories is going to
be Dennis Rodman's appearance
265
00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:57,857
and the force he made.
266
00:10:59,025 --> 00:11:02,162
- Biggest grossing pay
per view in the history of WCW.
267
00:11:03,229 --> 00:11:04,497
- He came through for all of us.
268
00:11:05,064 --> 00:11:06,099
- Dennis Rodman
269
00:11:06,199 --> 00:11:10,970
has made his case as being a
mega force with the nWo.
270
00:11:11,037 --> 00:11:14,307
- Bad boys of wrestling with the
bad boy of the NBA.
271
00:11:14,407 --> 00:11:15,909
What a match made in heaven.
272
00:11:15,975 --> 00:11:18,211
- Sweet.
273
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:25,485
- Our fifth entry on the
countdown takes us back in time
274
00:11:25,552 --> 00:11:28,154
to the beginning stages of the
nWo,
275
00:11:28,221 --> 00:11:32,058
when Scott Hall and Kevin Nash
had begun their invasion of WCW.
276
00:11:32,158 --> 00:11:34,794
These outsiders meant business,
and there was no better way to
277
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:37,697
make a statement than by going
after the World Championship
278
00:11:37,797 --> 00:11:40,166
Wrestling president, Eric
Bischoff.
279
00:11:42,802 --> 00:11:46,773
- For the last several weeks,
we've had a number of,
280
00:11:46,839 --> 00:11:48,408
let's just call them
interruptions.
281
00:11:49,275 --> 00:11:53,112
- When we went
to WCW,
282
00:11:53,179 --> 00:11:56,649
perception was that we
were sent by Vince
283
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:58,551
and we were going
to take over WCW.
284
00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:02,522
- Before we go any further,
let's clear one thing up.
285
00:12:02,589 --> 00:12:05,959
Do you work for the WWE?
286
00:12:06,025 --> 00:12:07,026
- No.
287
00:12:07,827 --> 00:12:08,828
- How about it?
288
00:12:08,828 --> 00:12:10,463
- No.
289
00:12:10,463 --> 00:12:12,265
Forget about the past, chico.
290
00:12:13,199 --> 00:12:14,667
- Eric's a ballsy dude.
291
00:12:14,734 --> 00:12:15,768
- You don't jack us around.
292
00:12:15,835 --> 00:12:17,236
Don't, jack-
293
00:12:17,303 --> 00:12:18,471
- Oh for cryin-
294
00:12:18,471 --> 00:12:19,439
- Whoa.
295
00:12:20,006 --> 00:12:21,007
What are they doing?
296
00:12:21,074 --> 00:12:21,874
Security.
297
00:12:21,874 --> 00:12:22,976
- Get up there right now.
298
00:12:23,042 --> 00:12:23,943
For-oh for-
299
00:12:24,043 --> 00:12:25,078
- Oh.
300
00:12:26,913 --> 00:12:28,514
- I have people trying to talk
me out of it
301
00:12:28,581 --> 00:12:30,550
because
"It's the rules."
302
00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:32,785
You know, "In wrestling, you
know, you don't ever, you know,
303
00:12:32,852 --> 00:12:34,721
lay hands on the announcer."
304
00:12:34,787 --> 00:12:37,590
Well, now I really want to do it
because I'm not supposed to.
305
00:12:39,058 --> 00:12:40,526
- Unbelievable.
306
00:12:40,893 --> 00:12:43,229
- It was different than what the
audience expected.
307
00:12:43,229 --> 00:12:44,497
I knew it would shock them.
308
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:46,232
And that's what my intention
was.
309
00:12:46,666 --> 00:12:49,636
- How low can you get?
310
00:12:49,702 --> 00:12:50,903
- Big boys?
311
00:12:51,004 --> 00:12:53,406
They just left the building.
312
00:12:55,742 --> 00:12:57,510
- Pure destruction.
313
00:12:57,577 --> 00:13:00,046
The New World Order is sending a
clear message about
314
00:13:00,113 --> 00:13:01,414
where the big boys play.
315
00:13:02,849 --> 00:13:05,885
During the height of the nWo's
popularity, the group had grown
316
00:13:05,952 --> 00:13:09,589
so large it created a splinter
faction which traded in the
317
00:13:09,589 --> 00:13:11,591
black and white for the red and
black.
318
00:13:12,158 --> 00:13:13,526
Our number four moment.
319
00:13:13,593 --> 00:13:15,962
The birth of the Wolfpac.
320
00:13:18,698 --> 00:13:21,134
- You talked about the
problems of the nWo.
321
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,269
Two definite sides.
322
00:13:23,336 --> 00:13:25,405
Definite splits of the nWo.
323
00:13:25,471 --> 00:13:26,839
- The nWo got so big,
324
00:13:26,906 --> 00:13:29,475
I mean, of course it was going
to be some dissension.
325
00:13:29,942 --> 00:13:31,110
- What we're witnessing
326
00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:32,945
is an nWo recruiting war.
327
00:13:34,113 --> 00:13:36,416
- There was nobody that was
babyfaces.
328
00:13:36,482 --> 00:13:43,423
So you basically had to take a
heel group and splinter it
329
00:13:43,423 --> 00:13:46,326
to make babyfaces
out of the heels.
330
00:13:47,060 --> 00:13:48,461
- Oh yeah.
331
00:13:48,561 --> 00:13:51,064
- It was that political divide,
332
00:13:51,064 --> 00:13:54,100
the tension between
the original nWo.
333
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,769
That's what created that divide,
334
00:13:56,836 --> 00:13:58,438
and that dissension, now that
dissension worked.
335
00:14:00,139 --> 00:14:04,043
- Wolfpac in the house.
336
00:14:04,744 --> 00:14:05,945
- The red nWo,
337
00:14:06,045 --> 00:14:10,350
that was more of the cliquish
vibe than really being with the
338
00:14:10,350 --> 00:14:13,386
black and white and down with
Hollywood
339
00:14:13,453 --> 00:14:15,788
- Like the Wolfpac
was the babyfaces.
340
00:14:17,056 --> 00:14:17,924
We had Luger.
341
00:14:17,990 --> 00:14:19,225
We had Macho.
342
00:14:19,292 --> 00:14:20,860
We had Konnan.
343
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,061
Then Sting joined us.
344
00:14:22,662 --> 00:14:24,764
- He's got the red and the
black.
345
00:14:25,264 --> 00:14:25,998
- That was unique.
346
00:14:26,065 --> 00:14:26,666
That was cool.
347
00:14:26,733 --> 00:14:28,067
It was edgy.
348
00:14:28,167 --> 00:14:29,435
- Rowdy ready?
349
00:14:29,869 --> 00:14:31,671
- Y'all significantly like
350
00:14:31,671 --> 00:14:35,074
brought something different to
the table
351
00:14:35,141 --> 00:14:36,275
and I appreciate that.
352
00:14:36,275 --> 00:14:39,645
I think all of us as fans
appreciate that.
353
00:14:39,712 --> 00:14:42,849
- Sometimes a single moment can
set in motion a chain of events
354
00:14:42,915 --> 00:14:45,585
that forever changes the course
of history.
355
00:14:45,585 --> 00:14:47,587
And in the domain of
professional wrestling,
356
00:14:47,587 --> 00:14:50,790
the fingerpoke of doom,
as it will become known,
357
00:14:50,857 --> 00:14:52,425
remains one of the most
replayed,
358
00:14:52,492 --> 00:14:54,627
debated and controversial
moments
359
00:14:54,694 --> 00:14:56,462
during the Monday Night War.
360
00:14:59,465 --> 00:15:01,801
- I'm going to give you one
chance,
361
00:15:01,868 --> 00:15:04,704
to let everybody in here know
362
00:15:04,804 --> 00:15:07,440
that yes, I am your leader.
363
00:15:07,507 --> 00:15:11,744
- We had teased a lot of
infighting within the nWo
364
00:15:11,844 --> 00:15:14,280
- If you don't think I can't go
through your Three Stooges
365
00:15:14,347 --> 00:15:15,882
to get to you,
366
00:15:17,183 --> 00:15:18,418
you got another
thing coming.
367
00:15:19,051 --> 00:15:23,823
- The climax of this
nWo civil war
368
00:15:23,890 --> 00:15:30,263
was a world title match between
Hulk Hogan and Kevin Nash.
369
00:15:30,263 --> 00:15:31,764
- This is better than a playoff
game.
370
00:15:31,831 --> 00:15:34,066
- Now this is what World
Championship Wrestling
371
00:15:34,133 --> 00:15:35,868
is all about.
372
00:15:40,907 --> 00:15:42,008
What is that about?
373
00:15:43,843 --> 00:15:45,111
What's going on here?
374
00:15:45,178 --> 00:15:46,479
What?
375
00:15:46,546 --> 00:15:49,816
[bell rings]
376
00:15:50,383 --> 00:15:51,551
- What just happened here?
377
00:15:52,819 --> 00:15:57,223
- From a storyline perspective,
kind of made sense because it's
378
00:15:57,290 --> 00:16:00,760
starting to look like the nWo
was going to fall apart.
379
00:16:00,827 --> 00:16:02,528
People were expecting to see it
happen
380
00:16:02,595 --> 00:16:04,063
and I wanted to take that
away from them.
381
00:16:04,697 --> 00:16:07,366
- A new heavyweight champion of
the world.
382
00:16:07,433 --> 00:16:09,969
- Hollywood Hulk Hogan.
383
00:16:10,036 --> 00:16:12,004
- It seemed like a good idea at
the time,
384
00:16:12,071 --> 00:16:14,073
showed "Ha ha ha,
we got everybody.
385
00:16:14,140 --> 00:16:15,474
He was really with me all
along."
386
00:16:15,541 --> 00:16:18,311
But it was like a big F you to
387
00:16:18,311 --> 00:16:21,147
the fans because they wanted to
see a match.
388
00:16:21,247 --> 00:16:25,885
- The nWo The Wolfpac back
together,
389
00:16:25,952 --> 00:16:27,186
- We're back in the saddle baby.
390
00:16:31,557 --> 00:16:33,926
- The nWo's emergence on the pro
wrestling scene in 1996
391
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:36,028
was a jolt to the
entire industry.
392
00:16:36,095 --> 00:16:39,031
But for this group to truly make
an impact, it needed to seize
393
00:16:39,098 --> 00:16:43,135
the very symbol of greatness in
World Championship Wrestling
394
00:16:43,202 --> 00:16:45,671
the coveted Big Gold Belt,
395
00:16:45,738 --> 00:16:49,242
the WCW World Heavyweight
Championship.
396
00:16:52,078 --> 00:16:55,915
- Welcome to the 56th
Annual Harley Rally.
397
00:16:55,915 --> 00:17:00,286
250,000 bikers are here
for WCW Hog Wild.
398
00:17:01,821 --> 00:17:03,990
- Hulk Hogan now will
meet the World Heavyweight
399
00:17:03,990 --> 00:17:05,057
Champion the giant.
400
00:17:05,858 --> 00:17:08,361
Two of the most dominant
figures in our sport.
401
00:17:09,829 --> 00:17:12,064
- What happens if Hogan wins the
title?
402
00:17:12,665 --> 00:17:16,002
- That Sturgis was a rough
crowd?
403
00:17:16,068 --> 00:17:18,604
Why don't you just shut up out
there, huh?
404
00:17:18,671 --> 00:17:20,806
I thought for sure the bikers
would love the bad guy,
405
00:17:20,873 --> 00:17:21,807
but man, they hated me.
406
00:17:21,874 --> 00:17:22,842
[laughing]
407
00:17:22,909 --> 00:17:23,843
- Turn around.
408
00:17:23,910 --> 00:17:25,411
Hall is up.
409
00:17:25,478 --> 00:17:27,113
The giant throws him in.
410
00:17:27,113 --> 00:17:30,316
- Deep chokeslam
the gigantic Nash.
411
00:17:30,316 --> 00:17:31,884
- He laid him out.
412
00:17:32,418 --> 00:17:33,786
- He laid him out with a-
413
00:17:33,786 --> 00:17:34,687
- I can't believe this.
414
00:17:34,754 --> 00:17:35,588
- -one, two, no.
415
00:17:35,655 --> 00:17:36,756
- We got a new champion.
416
00:17:36,822 --> 00:17:37,523
We got a new champion.
417
00:17:37,590 --> 00:17:39,592
[bell rings]
418
00:17:41,027 --> 00:17:41,994
- Aw, that's spray paint.
419
00:17:42,862 --> 00:17:45,097
Oh my God, they're going to
spray paint.
420
00:17:45,197 --> 00:17:46,032
- I cannot believe this.
421
00:17:46,098 --> 00:17:46,866
This is unbelievable.
422
00:17:46,933 --> 00:17:47,466
- Somebody-
423
00:17:47,533 --> 00:17:48,434
Somebody needs-
424
00:17:48,501 --> 00:17:49,869
- This is going to turn my
stomach right now.
425
00:17:50,703 --> 00:17:52,405
- This is something I did on the
spot.
426
00:17:53,072 --> 00:17:56,842
- I got a knot in my gut about
this situation going on here.
427
00:17:57,677 --> 00:18:02,014
- The nWo is the only way to go.
428
00:18:02,081 --> 00:18:03,883
And what you gonna do?
429
00:18:04,951 --> 00:18:07,386
- When Hogan defaced the
prestigious WCW World
430
00:18:07,386 --> 00:18:11,190
Heavyweight Championship and
spray painted the signature nWo
431
00:18:11,257 --> 00:18:13,192
letters on its big gold canvas,
432
00:18:13,259 --> 00:18:15,795
it signified that the New World
Order was for real.
433
00:18:17,863 --> 00:18:19,832
None of that happens if the
group doesn't have
434
00:18:19,899 --> 00:18:20,833
the ultimate front man,
435
00:18:20,900 --> 00:18:22,435
the Third Man.
436
00:18:22,435 --> 00:18:25,004
Without further ado, the final
moment on our countdown.
437
00:18:25,071 --> 00:18:27,039
Which brings us back to the very
beginning.
438
00:18:27,540 --> 00:18:30,309
The official genesis of the New
World Order
439
00:18:30,409 --> 00:18:33,446
from the 1996 Bash at the Beach.
440
00:18:36,482 --> 00:18:39,352
- I don't see three
men here tonight.
441
00:18:39,418 --> 00:18:41,187
Where is your
partner?
442
00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:43,589
- All you need to know little
man
443
00:18:43,656 --> 00:18:47,126
is he's here and he's ready.
444
00:18:47,193 --> 00:18:48,160
- Where is he?
445
00:18:49,428 --> 00:18:50,029
- You know we're doing this
446
00:18:50,096 --> 00:18:51,063
"Who's the
Man" thing?
447
00:18:51,163 --> 00:18:52,765
This big angle at the
Bash at the Beach.
448
00:18:52,832 --> 00:18:54,266
We're going to
launch the nWo.
449
00:18:54,333 --> 00:18:56,435
- They have said the Third Man
is here,
450
00:18:56,435 --> 00:18:57,803
but he is not in the ring.
451
00:18:58,404 --> 00:18:59,705
- We didn't tell anybody.
452
00:18:59,805 --> 00:19:01,774
- The drama is thick.
453
00:19:01,841 --> 00:19:03,476
Unbelievable.
454
00:19:03,476 --> 00:19:05,444
- We played it as close to the
hip as we could
455
00:19:05,511 --> 00:19:07,279
until the 11th hour.
456
00:19:08,981 --> 00:19:10,149
- Hulkamania.
457
00:19:10,249 --> 00:19:11,384
Hulk Hogan is here.
458
00:19:11,450 --> 00:19:13,185
- Hulk Hogan's here.
459
00:19:13,185 --> 00:19:14,220
- When I went out,
460
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,888
it looked like I was coming
out to save Macho Man.
461
00:19:17,223 --> 00:19:17,957
- Yes, sir.
462
00:19:18,024 --> 00:19:18,991
- Get him Hogan.
463
00:19:19,658 --> 00:19:20,793
Go get him, baby.
464
00:19:21,494 --> 00:19:23,062
Who's bad now, boys?
465
00:19:23,696 --> 00:19:25,197
- Hulk Hogan arrived.
466
00:19:25,264 --> 00:19:26,632
Hulk, Hulk, Hulk-
467
00:19:26,699 --> 00:19:27,433
- What is he doing?
468
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:28,134
- Oh my God.
469
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,435
- Is he the Third Man?
470
00:19:29,435 --> 00:19:30,202
- He's the Third Man.
471
00:19:30,269 --> 00:19:32,204
- What the hell is going on
here?
472
00:19:32,271 --> 00:19:35,408
- Hulk Hogan has betrayed WCW.
473
00:19:35,474 --> 00:19:37,043
He is the Third Man.
474
00:19:37,109 --> 00:19:38,110
Look at this picture.
475
00:19:38,110 --> 00:19:39,111
- Oh my God.
476
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:41,080
- What the hell is going on?
477
00:19:41,147 --> 00:19:42,148
- Oh my God.
478
00:19:42,682 --> 00:19:45,785
- I knew all the stuff that was
thrown in the ring,
479
00:19:45,851 --> 00:19:48,954
the trash, the bottles.
480
00:19:49,021 --> 00:19:50,423
We have pissed some people off.
481
00:19:50,523 --> 00:19:54,627
This right here is the future of
wrestling.
482
00:19:54,627 --> 00:19:56,228
You can call this
483
00:19:56,228 --> 00:20:00,499
the New World Order of
wrestling, brother.
484
00:20:01,434 --> 00:20:02,968
- Hulk Hogan was Hulk Hogan.
485
00:20:03,035 --> 00:20:04,603
He was the ultimate good guy.
486
00:20:05,438 --> 00:20:07,406
Once he turned heel,
487
00:20:07,473 --> 00:20:09,075
it changed the wrestling world.
488
00:20:09,141 --> 00:20:11,677
- We have seen the end of
Hulkamania.
489
00:20:13,479 --> 00:20:15,681
- The fix was in, as they say,
and the Immortal One was
490
00:20:15,748 --> 00:20:17,983
revealed to be the elusive Third
Man,
491
00:20:18,084 --> 00:20:21,787
the former face of
WWE Hulk Hogan.
492
00:20:21,787 --> 00:20:23,689
The nWo had its core,
493
00:20:23,756 --> 00:20:26,726
and the wrestling world
would never be the same.
494
00:20:26,792 --> 00:20:29,995
That'll do it for this edition
of WWE's Greatest Moments.
495
00:20:30,062 --> 00:20:31,363
We hope you enjoyed this
496
00:20:31,430 --> 00:20:32,832
look back at one of Sports
Entertainment's
497
00:20:32,898 --> 00:20:34,467
most influential factions.
498
00:20:34,467 --> 00:20:35,835
The New World Order.
