[edit] History

The Misfits stable was originally started on the April 17, 2000 episode of WCW Monday Nitro when Eric Bischoff berated a crew of wrestlers including Hugh Morrus, Lash LeRoux, Bam Bam Bigelow, Jerry Flynn, Chavo Guerrero, Jr. and Booker T. for not helping out the New Blood dispatch of their enemies.

On the April 26, 2000 episode of WCW Thunder, Leroux, Guerrero, Morrus and Van Hammer made the save for Booker T. in his match against Scott Steiner. Leroux, Hammer and Guerrero made the save for Morrus on the May 1 Nitro to help solidify their alliance. Immediately after the match, Bischoff fired Morrus and the three men who made the save.

Shortly thereafter the group returned to WCW under their new MIA names, perhaps signifying that while their old identities had been fired they were free to return with new names.
