In 1996, Rogers joined The Dungeon of Doom. He feuded with former Dungeon of Doom member John Tenta (Earthquake), and newcomer Glacier. By the end of the year, he had turned on the Dungeon of Doom and joined the nWo.

Traylor returned on September 1, now using his real name and vowing to rip Bischoff's head off. He feuded with the nWo, defeating members such as Scott Hall, Curt Hennig, and Vincent. He formed an alliance with The Steiner Brothers, who also sought DiBiase as their manager. The union abruptly ended when Scott Steiner turned on them to join the nWo in February 1998. After losing his final WCW match to Bill Goldberg on the March 30 episode of Nitro, Traylor sat out and let his contract expire.
