Back in Black: Not Quite, 3 Aug 2004
When the nWo first emerged back in WCW in 1996 it was an amazing angle and had a great 18 months. It was one of wrestlings greatest ever Angles, and it was only befitting that it got its on dvd release. This DVD does a great job of highlight then angle, uptill about 1997. It completely misses out the other 50 members that joined the nWo in its time, missed out there titanic feud with Sting, and the 4 Horseman and missed out on nWo Wolfpac, nWo Hollywood and the other incarnations it went through............. not exactly in depth then!Strangely it only features a few interviews (no Nash?), and has a pitiful collection of matches on offer, plus 2 nWo Promos (which are frankly an insult, as without the history of them on the DVD there pointless). This had the opportunity to be a great 2-3 disc DVD set, with a wealth of matches to choose from, but WWE like it is has done WCW another disservice,by putting out a halfhearted effort. It looks like it was rushed out to coincide with the nWo's emergence in WWE in 2002 (which lasted about 2 months), to make WWE a quick cash in Buck, and robs the viewer of a truly great experience.

Branded!!!, 22 Jan 2005

This DvD is not disapointing! It's really good. It highlights some of the nWo's finest moments both in wcw & the wwf. It shows you how they formed, what enemies they made, their destruction, and sadly their break up. It also highlights their return to the wwf in february 2002 at No Way Out.
Interviews from the hulkster himself and Scott Hall, however Kevin Nash doesn't seem to get interviwed! Extras include match ups in wcw & wwf. Also a nWo promo called nWo 4 life... telling you what their thoughts were on the superstars in wcw and what they were going to do next. Its a great documentary!!!

BRILLIANT!........................, 17 May 2008
A fabulous DVD depicting the New World Order, the toughest outfit in wrestling, whose sole object was to ruin the WCW and WWF (as it was then) alike. It was all an angle of course. And it worked.
This is a great DVD showing some of their greatest, nasty moments. I do not know who conceived the idea, but it was brilliant. Could it have been WCW's Eric Bischoff? Whoever it was, they had a winner and it has never been repeated. Forget DX, these guys were fabulous. Scott Hall and Kevin Nash left the WWF to join the WCW and then it began. The were joined by Hulk Hogan and it rolled. As other wrestlers joined the happy band, it began to lose momentum. When WCW folded, they returned to WWF as "No Way Out 2002" (another terrific PPV).
Sadly the whole episode deserved a box-set as it is crushed on to one disc, however, if you can find a copy, it is a "must-see" for wrestling fans. It is getting very rare.
