Ain't got time for a forward.. get on with it.

SCENE 01: I THOUGHT THEY ALL RETIRED...

As the scene opens for this week's update, we find America's favorite tag team standing in front of a clear dry erase board that has writing on it and photos taped to it. Right now, we can't make out who the photos are of, but there are five or six other dry erase boards standing around in the room, covered in the same way with the writing and photos. The one that Beer Money is standing in front of has a label taped at the top - "Original nWo". As the camera zooms in, they start discussing what's on the board and thier match for this week.

"Okay, Storm... this week we're against the nWo. Now before you ask or say anything, listen to me. Yes, there have been numerous incarnations of the nWo, most of which are displayed on these boards. Since we're facing two former members, I figured it'd be best to revisit the past in order to see the future. You following me so far?"

"Yep, I got it."

"Good. Now... the first ever formation of the group was in WCW, and it had a LOT of people. Around twenty-five, if I've counted right. The two we're facing this week, Buff Bagwell and Big Show, were in it, but this was when Big Show went by The Giant. Either way, their major members were Hollywood Hogan, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Ted DiBiase, The Giant, Syxx, Bagwell, Eric Bischoff, Sting, Curt Henning.... let's just say there were a bunch of legends in this. Most have retired - in Hogan's case, retired several times, died, or gone on to other companies. Next board..."

They walk over to another board, this one labeled "nWo Hollywood".

"Skipping the unimportant nWo Japan, then came the nWo Hollywood era. In that, there were about fourteen people, most of whom were in the original one. Again, this was in WCW."

He waves his hand at a couple of other boards before looking at Storm.

"As you can see, there's been a ton of WCW versions of the nWo... Wolfpac, Elite, B-Team, nWo 2000... the list goes on. Then we go to the WWE's versions..."

They move over to another board, labeled "WWE's nWo".

"There were five different versions of the group in the WWE. The first was Hogan, Hall, and Nash. The second was Nash, Hall, X-Pac - formerly known as Syxx, and Big Show. The third... Nash, X-Pac, and Big Show; fourth was Nash, X-Pac, Booker T, Shawn Michaels, and Big Show. The final one was Nash, X-Pac, Shawn Michaels, and Big Show. None of these were very original or successful, which is why they ended it for good after the fifth try."

"If they didn't do too good, then why try so many times?"

"What have I been telling you, Storm? What makes the world go round? What makes anything worth doing worth doing over and over again? MONEY! MONEY is why they did it! Money is why the WCW did it so many damn times! Money is why the Japanese started it in the first place! And money..."

He moves over to another board labeled "the Kings of Wrestling - TNA".

"...money is why TNA tried to do it, too. Back in the beginning, on November seventh, two-thousand-four at the first ever Victory Road, they tried making their own nWo, calling it the Kings of Wrestling. In it was Jeff Jarrett, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall. Apparently Hall couldn't put the bottle down..."

"Why should he?"

"Not a beer bottle, a whiskey bottle. Anyhow..."

"Oh.. I don't like that hard stuff. Makes my liver cry, ya know? I never found out how ODB drank that stuff... she was fun, though. That woman could drink like a fish."

"ANYWAY... through the years, the companies tried a lot of spinoffs or parodies of the nWo, including D-Generation X, the Blue World Order, the Latino World Order, the One Warrior Nation, the J.O.B. Squad, Dynamite World Order, Juggalo World Order... let's just say that many tried and many failed, unless you look at the ongoing popularity of DX."

Roode puts down the pointer he had been holding in order to indicate the photos posted on the boards as Storm keeps drinking his beer.

"So do you get it now?"

"Yeah, I get it... I get that Beer Money got screwed out of a pay-per-view match just to be facing some ancient team in the main event on Fusion."

"Exactly."

"We're the tag team champions, man... we deserve to be on the pay-per-view more than anybody else! Instead we get booted for some grudge match or what the hell ever it is, and we have to sweep the dust out of the ring after we beat the hell out of the nWo."

"Sweep the dust out of the ring?"

"Yeah... they're so old, they'll disentigrate if we flick em hard enough... so all we'll need to do is sweep them out of the ring."

"Sorry, man... I'll be there for ya, but these hands weren't made for hard labor. Get Jackie to help you sweep the ring... she should know what she's doing by now... she's a woman after all."

The two of them laugh as they walk out of the room, leaving the camera alone to focus on the dry erase boards as the scene fades to black.
