I still listen to greatest show even when I'm not watching the oddities Although now that I think about it I think liking the insane clown posse goes hand in hand somewhat in liking the oddities.. even though they did have Luna vachon
Yamazaki Corporation will forever be remembered as the only official Four Horsemen incarnation of which Arn Anderson was not part in any capacity - member, manager or associate. This made Ric Flair the only member of every Four Horsemen incarnation.
I don't see Oddities as a "spinoff" Whether they were a good or bad faction; they shouldn't be on this list. Especially at #3. Kurgen was the only member that was in the original group you are talking about, and They disbanded and he had a Solo career before Oddities
Only thing I remember about Los boricuas is when I was 14 at a house show we were 3 rows off the ring so we spent the entire Los boricuas match telling Miguel Perez to take off his sweater
The Corporate Ministry and The Oddities were decent groups. The Oddities were mostly used as more or less musical entertainment and The Corporate Ministry started some of the best feuds of the attitude era
It's a spin-off of the Corporation. The Union was made up of ex Corporation members kicked out of that group. The Oddities though, that was much more of a stretch
Great question. i didn't even realize that until you mentioned it. I guess they're trying to sat they exist for the purpose of feuding with the Corporate Ministry.
I don’t care what anybody thinks here spinning of the nwo into anything was a bad idea Bischoff created something special and the moment he split the nwo into various Nwos he fired the first shot that killed wcw
Still got a n.W.o hat that has a half white, half red emblem, I think it was when the black & white and red & black merged? .. .. .. didn't last very long though.
@@straingedays in 1999 it was wolfpac and Hollywood. Kevin Nash went against hogan after starcade on nitro and then finger poke happened. They combined to form NWO elite
The Oddities got huge pops every Superstar in wrestling today could only wish to get. They were over and eventually WWE released them like they did a bunch of people randomly.
I liked The Oddities, especially Gulga, but they were all fun & different to watch back in the day ...the rest on your list were some of the worst!! (some so bad & short lived I've forgotten they existed)
Kinda surprised you didn't include the brief reunion of Evolution as an enemy of shield. Evolution made sense originally because it was a legendary heel and the top heel of the era teaching two up and comers how to be heels. The whole concept doesn't work when it's just three top card heels teaming up. Randy Ortons legacy faction seemed like a more faithful spinoff (if you would even call it that) to the evolution factions concept.
He stole the idea of a rival promotion/faction invading, like Riki Choshu did in AJPW or the UWF guys did in NJPW. But nWo Japan was NOT the first nWo. It was a spin-off of the WCW version.
I know many people may not agree/I may be the only one, but I really dug the League of Nations. I thought it was one of the most legitimate international factions, and its nice to see other parts of the world highlighted in a group. Didn't really seem as campy or gimmicky as some critics like to make it seem, (plus sets itself up for an inevitable implosion).
You forgot to point out the week Vince McMahon stood side by side with the Union to call out the Corporate Ministry. If there was any level of make-believe in pro wrestling, it was this
What about the X-Pac, Road Dogg, and Tori (not Tori Wilson) version of *DX* that functioned like a Tag-Team during early to mid 2000. By that point Triple H was doing his own thing, being the Game, and Billy Gunn had gone out on injury, leaving the Outlaws. So Road Dogg and X-Pac were teaming as DX. I always saw that version the way I saw the NWO B-team, as a weak jobber version of a once awesome group. They eventually ended up feuding and had a match with each other at Summerslam 2000 to fan indifference.
I mean that’s not Not a spin-off. They are original members of dx POST mania 18 I (I think) she. Triple H left it didn’t change the groups identify. Just like big E leaving new day doesn’t make kofi and Xavier woods a spin-off of New Day.
8:28 that tall guy was in Undertaker last ride in a backstage where we can see Kane without the mask in his first original attire. Imagine if we saw that clip when we were kids.
The Dungeon of Doom was so incomprehensibly awful you can't help but to love how completely absurd and cheesy it all was - it was like a rejected faction from He-Man brought to life. I don't necessarily agree with The Oddities being placed on this list...the faction had Kurrgan and The Jackal (for a brief moment), but beyond that it wasn't related to the Truth Commission at all.
Arn Anderson is the legal owner of name and gimmick of Four Horsemen. Since he was not involved at the time, they had to come up with new name for the group and came up with Yamazaki Corporation. Similar thing happened in 2010 in TNA when Flair formed a new and latest version of Four Horsemen under the name Fortune.
@@Jermbot15 i mean i didnt think it was terrible but ya definitely not as good as them alone. I loved the ministry i keep saying thats how the dark order needs to be on aew not funny. I thought vince being the higher power was classic vince lol and jr and kings commentary was hilarious. “Youre a fool JR” 😂🤣
Gotta admit, The Undertaker/Stephanie McMahon "wedding" was the first time I saw wrestling on TV, and I got so excited seeing Stone Cold come out and save her. Got me hooked immediately.
Speaking on George Scott and the WCW booking at the time, Jim Cornette said on Kayfabe Commentaries: "Do you have Alzheimer's?" -"No." Corny: " Well, George did." 😂😂
The oddities were not a spinoff of the truth commission. Not even remotely. Also..they were very much over. Yall obviously weren't watching wwe at the time.
Did anyone responsible for making this list actually live through and watch this era of wrestling? Most, granted not all, of these factions were great entertainment during their time.
Hi I'm WhatCulture and I pretend to know about pro wrestling in Japan, NWA, and basically anything not WWF post 1995 by just saying what Dave Meltzer says.....
Everything about the Nwo starting in 99 was just bad not only for the B team but Elite as well and the fact that they added Disco and David flair into the mix was more of a reason it had to finally be killed. The only greatest moment they had was when they got the Hells Angels escort.
I don't care what people think today, but back in the Attitude era The Oddities got over. I watched 2 old matches the Oddities were booked and the crowd popped at their entrance and win. Don't believe, go back and watch an Oddities match and listen to the pop they got. Both with and without ICP!
I think that CORRE was spelled with two Rs for trademark and copywrite reasons. You're not going to be able to trademark a generic term like "The Core" , the core of what? The earths core, an apple core? Throw an extra letter in there and... BAM! You have a unique intellectual property.
I read that John tenta had the mask cause he got in better shape but the wwe didn't want to ruin the legacy of earthquake because he was a certain size and didn't want him being so much smaller.

The Union only lasted ONE month? And their theme song STILL made it into the Wrestlemania 2000 video game.
Yeah that one surprised me too! I was so sure they lasted much longer than that! At least 6 months or something I figured 🤷♂️
It’s a good tune
That damn work whistle!
The oddities peak was summerslam 98. That crowd was into them
New York and Madison Square Garden, Earthquake/Golga deserved that pop even if hardly anyone knew who he was under the mask.
The Oddities got over for a while. They got great reactions.
Yes sir!!!!
I really enjoyed them for a while. I was disappointed as they faded away.
ICP surely helped
No they .. really didn't...
I was way into wrestling from around 94-03, the oddities was an awful awful idea.
For the record, LWO was awesome!
The corporate ministry wasn't too bad. They produced a good in House HHH vs undertaker feud
And it gave us the hower power lol
Exactly what I was going to say. I actually liked the corporate ministry.
Corporate ministry ruled!
Taker was more of a bigger badass then than when he was actually the American badass. And he was jacked.
The Corporate Ministry was ridiculously bad. WWF in general was pretty bad in '99
The hell you doing talking trash about the oddities?! Everyone loved them!
Hell yea I loved the oddities amen brother
Thank you
I still listen to greatest show even when I'm not watching the oddities
Although now that I think about it I think liking the insane clown posse goes hand in hand somewhat in liking the oddities.. even though they did have Luna vachon
Everybody’s an oddity!
They single handedly made me an ICP fan so do with that information as you please 😆
Yamazaki Corporation will forever be remembered as the only official Four Horsemen incarnation of which Arn Anderson was not part in any capacity - member, manager or associate. This made Ric Flair the only member of every Four Horsemen incarnation.
5:53 “And Heath & Slater winning tag team gold” lol
The man deserved two paycheques, he's got kids after all.
Heath : "I AM THE TAG TEAM CHAMPION"
Yeah Mario Lopez showed up as his saved by the bell character
I never thought of x factor as a dx spin off lol
Nope just x-pac n his new friends
Because they aren't. Lol.
Agreed, and they were also very purple, no green
The timeline seemed very messed up there.
The Oddities were over and are still remembered fondly by those of us watching at the time.
Great theme song
“the only thing better than a freak is a dancing freak!” - Kurrgan
They were over cuz of the theme song
Absolutely right 👍......
At the 3:16 mark of this video they show Ivan Koloff and call him Nikita Koloff. Don't let What Culture tell you about wrestling in the 80s.
They’re annoying British millennial posers. This channel sucks.
Yeah I only like Simon
That’s IVAN Koloff, dopey! He’s only a former freaking WWWF champion!
@@irishted13But, WhatCulture doesn't know that.
@@whocares8584Simon is terrible. Why? He just is.
I loved the Oddities. How dare you 😂😂
oddities with icp were amazing
100%
@@jtclarks hey! Crazy to see you here. You have so many ICP videos from back in the day man! Thanks
@@JohnSchudar not a problem , I always try to find old videos for people to enjoy
Not getting over in front of live crowds has never stopped WWE before lol
nWo wolfpack was awesome back then
I don't see Oddities as a "spinoff"
Whether they were a good or bad faction; they shouldn't be on this list. Especially at #3.
Kurgen was the only member that was in the original group you are talking about, and They disbanded and he had a Solo career before Oddities
N kurgen n the oddities were very over with the crowd

I enjoyed the corporate ministry, I have no idea what it's doing on this list.
Loved the oddities, and the union wasn't just some guys thrown together. They all were corporation members previously.
The only two things that keep Harlem Heat from being the best WCW tag team are the Stieners and Arn and Tully
You would love my universe
IS THIS THE BEST PART OF THE EVER ?? "Yo your dealing with the X Factor" lol
“I GOT EVERYTHING IVE EVER WANTED, AND ILL NEVER GIVE THAT BACK”
How is "The Union" a spin-off faction?!! Sometimes I don't know about these list
I agree, Its just a faction, it didn't spin off from any other faction.
It's a spin-off of the Corporation. The Union was made up of ex Corporation members kicked out of that group. The Oddities though, that was much more of a stretch
Great question. i didn't even realize that until you mentioned it. I guess they're trying to sat they exist for the purpose of feuding with the Corporate Ministry.
@@tafua_a Well that's not a spinoff though.
@@DUB_87 It's more of a spin-off than the Oddities and X-Factor though
No mention of O.W.N.? The Warrior was the first member of the Oprah Winfrey Network.
Hahahahaha ... that's really funny
I think league of nation should be listed instead of the corporate ministry
The social outcasts was a bad faction too 🤣
Wasn't a spin-off
You should do best spinoffs next if possible. Would like to think bwo makes the cut
That was more of a parody than a spin off.
@@TDH24Live Fair point. Would still love to see best spinoff factions
I don’t care what anybody thinks here spinning of the nwo into anything was a bad idea Bischoff created something special and the moment he split the nwo into various Nwos he fired the first shot that killed wcw
Facts🤷🏾♂️🤔 I think this is where HHH started to take off as a singles competitor
No argument from me
What? The NWO wolfpac was over as could be and was awesome. The main issue with that was how hogan joined it
Still got a n.W.o hat that has a half white, half red emblem, I think it was when the black & white and red & black merged?
.. .. .. didn't last very long though.
@@straingedays in 1999 it was wolfpac and Hollywood. Kevin Nash went against hogan after starcade on nitro and then finger poke happened. They combined to form NWO elite
Hey! I liked the Corporate Ministry.
The oddities were at least entertaining
Idk I think the oddities were kind of over. Their entrance with the ICP theme got the crowd going.
For real
Oddities was my fav teams especially when ICP joined them
We shall never disparage the WolfPac.
Also how in the hell was X factor a dx spinoff? Lol
Brian lee is underrated like his stuff in ECW and TNA
Chainz in wwf his real is Brian Lee
At least we got Xavier Doom's Adventures of the NWO B-Team, which was hilarious.
1:23... quite possibly the most subtle gag ever in a WC vid.
The Oddities got huge pops every Superstar in wrestling today could only wish to get. They were over and eventually WWE released them like they did a bunch of people randomly.
The dungeon of doom was a fantastic faction!!
Yes, Kevin Sullivan was scary as hell
I agree, they were a good heel faction.
I will not have a bad word said against The Oddities, they were so over when their music hit.
The Corre needs to be near the top lol
Edit: I stand corrected 🤣
I liked The Oddities, especially Gulga, but they were all fun & different to watch back in the day ...the rest on your list were some of the worst!! (some so bad & short lived I've forgotten they existed)

Ric Flair said in the documentary Ric Flair and the 4 Horsemen that was the worst decision they made for the group
Nwo Japan was the first the first nwo Eric Bischoff even admitted he stole the storyline from Japan
