I'd say he was part of the NWO just as DiBiase was before he vanished.

That was the Russo attempt at a revamp, wasn't it?

The Wolfpack offshoot.

I thought "they both" ended up joining, but I could be wrong.

I remember Rotunda as being part of the "B Team" with Stevie Ray, et al.

I think BT was Fake Razor.  Just FWIW, NWO Japan changed its name to 
"Aristrist" briefly before becoming "Team 2000" when
negotiations 
between NJ and WCW hit the skids for a time.

Shakira?

IMHO, everyone who was NWO from the time Russo tried to reinvent it (to
