My hope is that they could play up the arrival of Rock, Foley, or whomever, in a unique way that would capture casual fans. What the best way to do that would be, I don't know. But the thing about the NWO (in its original form) was that it was something fresh, something that had never been seen before. Simply a big name talent doesn't make a successful storyline. Like Shaggy said, it has to be something innovative.

As far as my mention of Hall or Nash, if they could be worked into the story without seeming like they're just being dug up from the past, it would be some great nostalgia, but of course don't force it if it's not going to work.

So I'm not at all saying TNA should have a dead knock-off of the NWO. What I am advocating is something the NWO had that made it successful: innovation.

Sorry for not being clearer in my original post.
