Happy 19th birthday to the New World Order, who formed on July 7, 1996, at WCW’s Bash At The Beach pay-per-view. This clip from WWE Fan Nation allows you to relive all the important moments of their birth, from the ring full of trash to Hulk Hogan telling the fans to “stick it,” to Bobby Heenan completely selling out the swerve before Hogan gets to the ring.

Where were you in 1996? How old were you? What were you doing? How different was the world? Let us know in our comments section below. Make sure you celebrate today by dumping out a garbage can in your living room, spraypainting letters on the backs of people you hate, and tweeting Larry Zbyszko to tell him to go f*ck himself.

that sad moment of watching them let Sting drag the unconscious body of Randy Savage out of the ring without even bothering to attack him right before Hogan dropped that ether bomb still burns

Knowing for that night the bad guys fukking won.


Crazy 19 years and I remember it like it happened last night

They made Sting look like an old, hackneyed. gimmick. Hurt my feelings as much as watching the Horsemen fade out of relevance.

The NWO got me into wrestling. I was flipping channels in summer 97 and saw the Outsiders interrupt a Steiners promo and clown them. First time I ever saw wrestling and got hooked for the next few years there.

I bought an NWO black and white shirt for the first time since I was a kid a week ago, first wrestling shirt I've probably worn in 15 years. Rocked it to work for the first time today. Only had one person comment on it, just happened to be this brat I'm trying to smash. The NWO lives on :cheers:

Tired of seeing people say this. IT MADE SENSE CHARACTER-WISE CONSIDERING THEIR HISTORY.
