In 1996, Bischoff signed WWF superstar Scott Hall, better known at the time as “Razor Ramon”. Two weeks later on Nitro, Hall was joined by Kevin Nash, most previously known as “Diesel” in the WWF, to become “The Outsiders”. Bischoff intentionally depicted the duo as WWF rebels who were not under contract to WCW. To avoid legal action by the WWF, Bischoff in a worked interview at The Great American Bash, asked point blank if they worked for the WWF, which both Hall and Nash denied. The Outsiders expanded and became the New World Order (nWo) when perennial fan-favorite Hulk Hogan aligned himself with the Outsiders in July 1996.

The nWo was depicted as a rival company engaging in a “hostile takeover” of WCW. Week to week, the angle grew more complex, with a mixture of main- eventers, mid-carders, executives, referees, managers, and announcers involved in various subplots related to the onscreen “WCW vs nWo” power-struggle. Led by the nWo storyline, WCW overtook the WWF as the number one wrestling promotion in America with Nitro defeating Raw in the ratings by a wide margin for 84 consecutive weeks. During this era, Bischoff moved from his role as commentator and joined the nWo as a manager. His television character, dubbed “Eazy E” by Hall (“Sleazy E” by the WCW commentators), became a dictator and egomaniac as the nWo boss. In the summer of 1998, Bischoff hosted a Tonight Show like segment on WCW programming with Miss Elizabeth. Ted DiBiase has said in shoot interviews that Bischoff originally hired DiBiase to be the spokesperson and financial backer for the nWo, but when the nWo was getting to be a more prominent storyline, Bischoff replaced DiBiase as nWo spokesperson.
