To this day, Bischoff regards this group as the biggest story told in wrestling, pointing out that Hulk Hogan’s heel turn was something no one had foreseen. However, Eric Bischoff believes the current WWE storyline will prevail over the NWO storyline. “I think [The Bloodline] is the best story told in professional wrestling for 30 years or more,” Bischoff said on a recent episode of the “83 Weeks” podcast. “Much better than the NWO.

This is what usually happens.
“They stick to the plan and execute it perfectly. NWO is a great story, and at the time, I think it – until Bloodline – was one of the best stories told, which is why people kept talking about it. But if you just look at the way Bloodline is told and the detail and discipline that go into that story, it just blows up the NWO story.”
