WWE loves cashing in on nostalgia, and Kevin Nash seems to be on board for a revamped version of the nWo. He even has a few people in mind that he would place on that stable.
Kevin Nash and Triple H are pretty good friends, so Big Kev’s opinion might hold some weight. All it would take is a text message from Diesel to put an idea into The Game’s brain. The thought that Kevin Nash seems entertained by the idea of a newer New World Order should be interesting for any pro wrestling fan.
During his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash stated that he wouldn’t mind getting the nWo back on television. He pitched an idea that he might lead a stable of malcontents that the company had on their roster at the time.
“We’ve had reunions, and we’ve come back and we’ve worn the logo. I’m telling you one thing, if they’re going to bring that Latino World Order back, there’s a couple malcontents that I see on that WWE roster, Mr. Ziggler, Corbin you think he likes being over there in NXT? Maybe put on a black and white t-shirt and have some fun? How about you there, Big Braun? I know you just got your neck fused, but you know, you want a home? I think you’d look nice, a big burly guy in an nWo t-shirt? I’ll put a black suit on and then quit after three weeks of fans going ‘WHAT?! WHAT?!’ F*ck that, I ain’t got time for this sh*t.”
Sadly, Dolph Ziggler won’t be available for any nWo 2.0, because he was released from WWE this week. That may actually give him an even better reason to return if WWE wants to dust off a proven brand like the New World Order. Kevin Nash might be 100% okay with that.
It’s fun to hear that Kevin Nash is down to make a return and lead a new stable of “malcontents,” but he also laughed off the idea as he pitched this winner of an angle. You can check it out in the clip below, where the nWo topic comes up around the four-minute mark.
We’ll have to see if WWE ever tries the nWo again, but the LWO’s return has certainly done impressive business.
Who would you book in a new version of the nWo? Sound off in the comments to let us know what you think!
