The Disciples of Apocalypse (DOA) were a biker-themed professional wrestling stable in the World Wrestling Federation in the late 1990s. The group came together from the firing of Crush and Savio Vega from the Nation of Domination stable in June 1997 and consisted of four main members: Crush, Chainz, Skull and 8-Ball.
DOA began to form on the June 9, 1997 edition of Raw when, the leader of the Nation of Domination, Faarooq fired both Savio Vega and Crush from the stable. As a result, Crush proceeded to form his own Hells Angels themed stable. The group consisted of Chainz, Skull and 8-Ball (both of whom are real-life cousins of Chainz). They were introduced on the June 23, 1997 edition of Raw and proceeded to feud with the new Nation of Domination led by Faarooq and Los Boricuas led by Savio Vega.
Late in 1997, Crush left the group, and the WWF in protest of the Montreal Screwjob, and believing he would fare better in WCW.The WWF addressed this by saying Crush was Kayfabe put out of action by Kane. DOA continued as a stable with Chainz assuming leadership. With the loss of Crush, DOA started to team on a semi-regular basis with Ken Shamrock and Ahmed Johnson to battle The Nation of Domination. They also feuded against the Truth Commission and their spiritual leader, The Jackyl.
