10 Best WCW Storylines Ever

1. The New World Order

This is a no brainer. The New World Order was the best angle that WCW ever did and the company was most successful when they were featured prominently. The formation of the group happened at the Bash at the Beach PPV in July of 1996 when Hulk Hogan entered the ring during a tag match with Scott Hall & Kevin Nash taking on Sting, Randy Savage & Lex Luger. When Hogan showed up we figured he would help the good guys because that's what he always did, but instead he dropped a leg drop on Savage two times and celebrated with Hall & Nash. From there we saw a new side of Hogan with the black & white colors of the NWO as the group became the biggest heel faction in the company. Several others joined the group, but it was their feuds with babyfaces like Sting, Goldberg, Lex Luger, Roddy Piper, Diamond Dallas Page and so many others that made it WCW's best story they've ever told. Like a lot of things in WCW, they really didn't know how to end the angle and they managed to mess it up by adding way too many members to it, but those first two years of the NWO were generally pretty good. It should be remembered for its greatness instead of laughed at for how it ended. There's a reason why Hogan, Hall & Nash can appear on Raw in August 2014 and still get a huge reaction when that famous music hits. They did something special 18 years ago. It's great to know that fans still remember it.
