‘The Band is Back Together’ ran out of hits when ‘nWo 2000’ arrived in WCW toward the end of 1999.

nWo 2000 was just another one of many nWo spinoffs and parodies over the years. Like the bWo and lWo or nWo Wolfpac and nWo Japan, this was yet another offshoot of the original and legendary nWo which bastardized its name and aura.

With creative running dry on new ideas and Hulk Hogan donning the red and yellow colours once again as a babyface, WCW turned to Kevin Nash and Scott Hall to form a new incarnation of the New World Order with Bret “The Hitman” Hart and “Double J” Jeff Jarrett.

On Nitro, with Bret and Goldberg clashing over the WCW World title, Hall and Nash did a run-in and swerved the audience (bro) by siding with Bret and attacking Goldberg, with Jeff Jarrett following suit and smashing a guitar over Goldberg ally “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. Hart, Hall, Nash and Jarrett then did the classic spray paint and pose, signifying nWo 2000 had arrived.

Scott Steiner and The Harris Brothers would later join the group. When you think of ‘nWo’, Ron and Don Harris aren’t the first thing that comes to mind for most wrestling fans.

With its members not having much chemistry together and fans exhausted of seeing all the incarnations of nWo and lots of injuries piling up at once, the group thankfully folded after a few months.
