nWo Considered A ‘Gang’ By Elementary School As Students Are Forbidden To Wear Black & White Colors

The pro wrestling world is full of legendary branding that has gone on to change pop culture. The nWo is no different, because that stable went on to make a lot of noise outside pro wrestling that continues to this day.

Kevin Nash was a tremendous part of the nWo’s formation, and he is willing to carry the banner to this day. While he sat with his nWo t-shirt on, Big Kev even teased the idea of an nWo 2.0.

During his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash opened up about how he received a photo of a letter that a 5th grader received from their principal. This really put things into perspective for the two-time WWE Hall of Famer.

“It became pop culture-ish, but it wasn’t pop culture. I’ve got a letter on my phone, and it’s from a principal that he sent to a kid, the kid’s father sent it to me. The letter says that, ‘it’s been brought to my attention that your son’s in a gang in school,’ this is like a 5th grader. ‘It’s the nWo, he can no longer wear the colors,’ and on and on and on like that. It’s something like the kids in their nWo shirts are roughing up other kids at recess.”

Kevin Nash said when he read that letter, he really understood how much trouble he caused people. In fact, he is told that he inspired kids to cause trouble for themselves all the time when they were in school. Nash made it clear that was never their intention.

We will have to see if the nWo makes a return in some form. Kevin Nash seems entertained by the notion that they could sell a lot more t-shirts.
