A new season of Biography: WWE Legends will debut Sunday, beginning with an episode exploring one of wrestling’s most successful story lines: the New World Order.
The NWO was formed long before that famed night at Bash at the Beach in July 1996 when Hulk Hogan joined forces with Kevin Nash and Scott Hall. The foundation for the industry-changing group was laid on backroads, diners and highways across the United States in car rides that featured Nash, Hall and Sean Waltman during their time together in the World Wrestling Federation.
“We were a unit,” says Waltman, who joined the iconic group as its sixth member in September 1996. “The NWO wasn’t blind faith in one another. We knew each other very well. It was all based off our friendship.”
