So, just recently came across this clip here: www.youtube.com/shorts/RfkZ07YkpTgAny context behind this? Were they meant to be hinting towards something, or was this an actual fight that had broken out for some reason? |

Was it over who leads The Black and White NWO after Hollywood formed NWO Elite? That was the storyline at the time between them.
Kinda looks like they started going at it for real.

Only tangentially related, but it's amazing how much just seeing Disco Inferno in the background immediately deflates any gravitas the nWo might have had at that moment.

Not a real fight. There was a Nitro where Hogan met with the different NWO B-squad members like Stevie Ray and Vincent individually and told each of them that they were the leader of black and white NWO. That caused them to start fighting amongst each other. This segment was part of that angle.

Hogan said, "Fight to see who shines my boots, brother!"
Not really, but knowing what we know now...

It was over who would lead the Black & White B-team.
This would lead to a match at Uncensored 99 a couple weeks later where Stevie Ray won the right to lead Black & White.

When people talk about when the nWo got watered down, it was during this period when the Wolfpack and Hollywood reunited.
I don't mind B or C level guys like Bagwell, Vincent and Norton being there, and for a while the nWo felt stable with the guys they had, but when you're adding Disco Inferno and Horace Hogan...it's really jumped the shark. I'm indifferent towards Stevie Ray since I liked him, but it was just another example of WCW breaking up a legendary tag team without actively putting another tag team in play...at a time when their tag team division started to just become two random guys tagging together.

Yeah, it was them, Horace Hogan and one or two other guys Stevie Ray won the leadership role in a match with Virgil, Horace Hogan, and Bryan Adams. There was also a backstage segment a few weeks earlier with Hulk Hogan telling Scott Norton he should be the leader. I’m not sure why Norton wasn’t in the match. |
