Major logic gap with the nWo killing

[Guest Redhawk]

How can the owner/chairman/GM/commisioner/whatever just kill a stable like that? In reality, Vince can't do anything if some guys decide to get together and call themselves the nWo. Or D-X, or Harlem Heat, or the Hart Foundation. I'm not saying that I want the nWo around, but they could have found a better way to kill it than Vince just saying, "It's done." That decision would totally be up to the nWo members. I mean what would happen if some other guys decided to call themselves the nWo? Would they be punished for it? Can HBK and X-Pac and Show not hang around each other backstage anymore? Can X-Pac and Show tag, but they have to call themselves something else? This doesn't make any damn sense.

[Guest Anglesault]

Oh well. No harm, no foul.

[Guest AM The Kid]

When was Harlem Heat a stable?

[Guest Anglesault]

with Stevie, Ahmed, the lawyer and the big fat guy

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Well Vince brought them in, and can take them out... I guess.

[Guest HartFan86]

Well Vince brought them in, and can take them out... I guess.

That's what I'm thinking. He brought them in as lethal poision, they didn't kill anything, Vince's motives have changed, and bah...nWo is gone.

[Guest Human Fly]

They probably just wanted the group off as fast as possible, and if there was a storyline for them to be eliminated they would have had to be on tv again. It was a mercy killing, it should've been done a while ago.

[Guest RetroRob215]

But the nWo essentially is dead anyway. Nash is out for 10 months, Pac is pretty much suspended, leaving Show and HBK. Not exactly a stable anymore.

[Guest Angle-plex]

A logic gap in WWE? No...........

[Guest AM The Kid]

with Stevie, Ahmed, the lawyer and the big fat guy

LOL, sounds just like the Nation of Domination.

[Guest Redhawk]

Yeah, the nWo as we knew them (Hogan, Scott Hall, Nash .... then HBK, X-Pac, Nash, Show) are broken up, but what would happen if, say, a few guys got together and decided to be the nWo. Would they get in trouble? Would Vince be able to say, "I said no more nWo. Come up with a new name or disband."

[Guest chirs3]

It wouldn't matter, because them calling themselves the NWO would never get on air. What are they gonna do, switch Lillian Garcia's index cards?

[Guest TheSmarkzone]

Redhawk summed it up. They could just as easily had Booker T beat the Big Slow on RAW, which in turn would have made HBK so furious that he disbanded the nWo. No reason for Vince to break kayfabe and go, "Okay, this didn't work, it's dead."

The NWO did what it set out to do. It was a lethal injection of poison. It killed ratings, killed other wrestlers heat, killed morale, killed workrate, killed fans interest.............

[Guest Jobber of the Week]

Vince can't do anything if some guys decide to get together and call themselves the nWo. Or D-X, or Harlem Heat, or the Hart Foundation.

Actually, WCW had a PPV where Booker T lost the rights to the name Harlem Heat in a match.

[Guest GenerationNever]

The NWO did what it set out to do. It was a lethal injection of poison. It killed ratings, killed other wrestlers heat, killed morale, killed workrate, killed fans interest.............

BAH GAWD, HE'S RIGHT! Heh. Anyways, Vince brought the NWO into the WWF/E to destroy the company because Flair was co-owner. Now, McMahon has full control and Flair works for him, no reason to destroy the company. Therefore, the poison has been sucked out of the WWE. The End.

[Guest jester]

Someone suggested an angle where Booker propose a match where he would retire if the NWO beat him, and they hand to disband if he won. I think that would have made more sense.

 

But you know what? If the NWO is gone, I ain't gonna complain.

 

jester

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

It didn't 'kill' all those things, it just kicked workrate, fan interest, etc. in the nuts.

[Guest TheSmarkzone]

I guess the nWo really WAS a fan-interest-killing poison...

[Guest Prince Paul]

The NWO did what it set out to do. It was a lethal injection of poison. It killed ratings, killed other wrestlers heat, killed morale, killed workrate, killed fans interest.............

Yeah, they were poison alright.

 

It would have been stupid for just HBK to disband the nWo because Show lost to Booker. HBK's the newest member. Nash wasn't there. Pac wasn't there. For god's sake, if someone is going to kill the nWo, let it be Nash from his hospital bed. That wasn't going to happen, so Vince did what was right. Just killing them on the spot.

[Guest TheSmarkzone]

HBK was the leader...

[Guest The Superstar]

I'm not shedding any tears over this logic gap.

[Guest converge241]

wait theres logic!!!

 

Vince wanted to kill the company when he brought them in

 

looks like mission acomplished!!!! no further need

[Guest TheSmarkzone]

I'm not shedding any tears either. But I do want my $28 back for my WWE Shopzone nWo shirt.

[Guest converge241]

did it at least have something on the back of it (the shirt)?

[Guest TheSmarkzone]

Nope, just a tiny Shopzone logo and a tiny nWo logo. And the front had the WWE-ized version of the nWo logo. The original nWo logo was a little bit grittier, the WWE version was cleaner.

[Guest Prince Paul]

Just sell it on your site.

[Guest The Superstar]

What are you talking about? It may be a collector's item someday! ::stifles laughter::

[Guest TheSmarkzone]

Yeah, right. You couldn't give an nWo shirt away for free after a run this abysmal.

[Guest converge241]

i agree you could probably sell and NWO Nitro or New Blood shirt easier right now
