The Timberwolves - NWO Wolfpac mashup is the perfect intersection of basketball and wrestling
TNT planted the ear worm. The network threw to halftime of the Minnesota Timberwolves’ Game 2 beatdown of the Denver Nuggets by playing the entrance music for revolutionary pro wrestling faction the NWO - specifically the “Wolfpac” offshoot that featured some of the coolest guys in the business during the late-1990s.
It was a throwaway clip that could have gone unnoticed. Except all those 90s kids who drove the Monday Night Wars happen to be extremely online, pointing at their screens like Leonardo DiCaprio in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood at the mere mention of a wrestling reference from nearly three decades earlier.
That included Rob Perez, formerly of The Ringer (among other places) and currently a host of his own NBA show on SiriusXM. Perez helped bring the Wolfpac shoutout to the forefront earlier in the week (and maybe inspired it by tweeting the theme before the series started). On Friday, he took it to a logical conclusion; a custom Timberwolves/NWO Titantron video that combines the best of both worlds (and is mildly NSFW, depending on how many crotch chops you’re allowed to watch on the the clock).
