Hall and Nash are effective here. This isn't really a good promo, but they aren't yet in their drunken-shoot-comments period, and they're still serious. The phrase "new world order" gets thrown around nonchalantly a few times. I'm not sure if they decided to go with that name based on Hogan's interview, or if that was a key phrase they asked Hogan to throw into his heel turn promo.

It was something they had decided beforehand. Nash has joked that he's amazed it got over despite Hogan screwing up and calling it the "new world organization" more than once in his heel turn promo.

I'd sure be disappointed with no Hogan follow-up this week if I were a fan watching at the time, but he still looms large over everything. Hall and Nash feel like even bigger stars now. They're definitely Cool Heels now, and the top WCW guys like Sting, Savage sort of already feel lame by comparison.

Hall has kind of dropped some of the Razor tropes here.  He has roughly the same cadence, but seems to be trying for something different now.  One of the weaker NWO segments so far, but the last one was a humdinger of a doozy so maybe it doesn't need to set the world on fire.  Maybe they are letting it breathe (and giving the folks a chance to order the replay of the PPV) for a week before they open up again?
