Would NWO be successful if Shawn Michaels was the third member instead of Hogan?

Yeah, but not as. Hollywood Hogan was dimes incarnate.

If Shawn goes to WCW with the outsiders & Bret stays in WWF, what a weird alternate reality that would’ve been

The outrage of Hogan turning heel is what made the angle.

Basically, it revitalized Hogan's career, and made NWO the hottest angle, beating WWF in the ratings, Monday Night Wars, Attitude era, Austin vs Rock, peak of pro wrestling. It would all be impossible without this single event.

It's fun to think about such things but alas it is a moot point because Shawn's back was injured. Perchance. It would be damn interesting to see how alternate realities would have played out. Hogan staying face and leading WCW against a Shawn- led NWO would really be something. I wonder how their inevitable match would differ from the one they had eventually in the E.
Also it would have been really funny if Hogan stole the crow gimmick from Sting. Perchance.

Also if HBK were the 3rd man then Triple HHH would have almost certainly left to be with the rest of his friends, which of course would have earth shitting implications. Perchance.

The outsiders & Shawn prob get a feud against a reunited mega powers for a while, eventually end up kicking Shawn out & doing a double turn with Hogan replacing him.

So basically you still get the NWO just later on in the years, which probably keeps WCW active another 5 or so years easily provided other things don’t go awry

Their friendship was pure utility to him, and with HBK gone, their utility is at its end.
