Original plans for Hall/Nash in WCW

By Scott Keith on 9 March 2019


Is it true that the whole nWo/Invasion storyline with Hall and Nash arriving in WCW in 1996 was actually a contingency plan, and they were originally going to give both of them those stupid occupational gimmicks instead?

I wouldn't say it was a contingency plan, but there were a lot of ideas being thrown around before Bischoff and the committee came up with the winning one, sure. Most people just assumed they'd be Vinnie Vegas and Diamond Studd because WCW still owned the intellectual property and it was known that they were becoming gun-shy about testing WWE's legal team after the Madusa fiasco.
