10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Feb 6)

7. Kevin Nash Thinks Original nWo Should Be In The WWE Hall Of Fame

By the time World Championship Wrestling had started presenting the 'nWo 2000' (or nWo Silver) faction at the turn of the millennium, the idea was a tired one in the eyes of fans. People were starting to run out of hope that the promotion would try something different, looking on in abject horror as they clung desperately to the New World Order concept introduced back in 1996. Kevin Nash was a part of that latest incarnation of one of wrestling's biggest factions. He was also the leader of the nWo Wolfpac, a group that splintered away from Hollywood Hogan's nWo Black and White stable. This is where the problems really started arising for the nWo premise, something Nash recognised during a sit down with Noelle Foley for Ringside Collectibles. According to 'Big Sexy', the only nWo incarnation that should ever be considered for entry into the WWE Hall Of Fame is the original one. Interestingly, Nash still named Sean 'X-Pac' Waltman as one of the original members, even though that wasn't the case. It seems not even Nash was a fan of all the different spin offs the New World Order created.
