Saraya’s ex-WWE faction has a new name that’s awfully close to The Outsiders

Saraya and Toni Storm have declared war on the local stars of the AEW Women’s Division. Now that Ruby Soho has joined this group of former WWE stars, the new faction has an official name: The Outcasts.

AEW commentators mentioned them by that name multiple times during the closing angle of tonight’s (March 10) episode of Carnage when they decided to spray paint Riho and put the boots on him.

It’s easy to draw surface-level parallels between Saraya’s group and the nWo, given the concept of former WWE stars banding together to declare war on their new wrestling company, as well as the excessive use of spray paint. nWo members Kevin Nash and Scott Hall were known as The Outsiders, and that’s not too far off from the Outcasts.

The Outcasts had a fight with Riho tonight, so business is about to pick up when the first-ever AEW Women’s World Champion gets back on her feet.

What do you think of the new name, Cagesiders?
