- As previously reported, the recent meeting between Scott Hall, Kevin Nash and Vince McMahon was very productive. The formation of the NWO was discussed at the meeting, as McMahon predicts that Monday night RAW ratings will drastically increase if the idea is eventually brought into fruition. Neither Scott Hall nor Kevin Nash have officially signed with WWFE as of yet, due to ongoing contracts with AOL Time Warner.

The United States release date for WWF Raw Is War on the XBox, has seemingly been put back a month. Previously scheduled for a November release in the US, Amazon.com have now stated that the game is to be available on December the 18, 2001.
A possible reason for the delay could either be the inclusion of new superstars, or a more likely name change, considering the recent change of names to the WWF program “Raw Is War”, due to the terrorist acts over the past month.

For more information, to see the Box Art and to find out how you can pre-order your copy of the game, Click Here.


Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley’s official WWF website, WWFSteph.com has been updated with a selection of new photographs of the ECW Owner in an array of clothing.

Smackdown! 3 has had a minor alteration taken place, whereby Ivory has been updated to her current gimmick, from her old Right To Censor clothing.

And finally, in other release date news, WWF “The Anthology” (a compilation double CD featuring 29 songs in total) has been tentatively scheduled for a 26th of March 2002 release.
On the set will feature many theme tunes of superstars from the past, including some themes which never made it into any past WWF CDs.




If I could capture the rage of today's youth and bottle it
Crush the glass with my bare hands and swallow it
And spit it back in the face of you racists
And hypocrites who think the same shit but don't say shit
You Liberaces, Versaces and Nazi's watch me
You motherfuckers wanna judge me cuz you're not me

And when the ratings continue to tank, look for them to bring back the oddities!

Dont they realize that there's a reason why WCW went out of business?

Well i can tell you why it didnt go out of business: The NWO, at least the beginning of the NWO. Thats when the WCW actually beat the WWF. So, i am in favor of the NWO reformation, as long as they dont stick with it for too long.

NWO or Not, I think the WWF has lost its focus. what difference will the forming of NWO make? If you ask me, i'll at most a bit. Think about it, what really is the difference between them bringing in Hall/Nash and the WCW invasion Crap. Yeah fans were really excited when talks began with the prospects of WCW Invation when Vince and Mini Vince(shane) buying WCW and when Booker T will occasionally show up and interfere with WWF's mathces. BUt since they brought the whole crew(at least the ones they signed), WWF TV+PPVS have been crapy. ANd the NWO invasion/Formation will just be the same. Its time for new thinking.

I think that this is a false rumor. IGN Editors didn't know anything about it when I e-mailed them and THQ.com is still saying November. Maybe Amazon is just overbooked on them and is telling customers that to get them to come back a month later to order one. Who knows.

who cares if they are repeating storylines, they should bring back the nation, with rocky, d'lo, faarooq, bradshaw, and haku. that wouldnt be bad, and a corporation could have vince, linda, test, bossman, there were rumors of shamrock returning, throw him in, it wouldnt b that bad to get a stable in, they havent had a good one in a while, theres only two stables now, WCW/ECW and WWF

Thats great for now, I agree, and I do think we need more soon. It would be a influx of new talent or at least new ideals, and more gooder tv would come from that.

DOn't get me wrong, I'm not against bringing back old story lines. What I'm concerned about is that they The WWF will fuck it up. Since they acquired WCW and ECW it seemed that they have lost their focus. (The last couple of shows have been good)

The one thing I did use to love about the NWO invasion of the WCW is the way they totally disrespected the WCW belts, and wrestlers. What I mean by that is spray painting the belts, and wrestlers with NWO, that was great.

i dont see why everyone hates the guy, he made a pretty good hardcore champ, and he made a great bodyguard for vince, considering he is one, the big slow fucked his gimmick up totally, the big slow's dad/bastered storyline was the most cheesy storyline ever, at the time i didnt think they could go any worse than the pepper for dinner thing...

I know it has been a while since I have seen the Uneverjobber roll his eyes in the back of his head. I liked it better when he was the head of the ministrey becasue he did not wrestle to often.

if they bring in flair (PLEASE MAKE IT SOON!!!) they can add a couple guys to make a new 4Horseman...perhaps jericho, benoit, and awesome (or some other big guy)...that would make a good stable. and hall and nash could wear the nwo colors, but i dont think they should reform the group...
