Aftermath
Following Ahmed Johnson's attack on The Undertaker at King of the Ring, Johnson and Undertaker were teamed together for a tag team match against Faarooq and Kama Mustafa on the June 16 episode of Raw is War. Johnson turned on Undertaker in the match, allowing Kama to pin Undertaker for the victory. As a result, Johnson became a villain and ended his rivalry with Faarooq's Nation of Domination by joining the faction.
After losing the WWF Championship match at King of the Ring due to an argument between his teammates, Crush and Savio Vega, Faarooq fired them out of Nation of Domination and converted it into a faction of black wrestlers, leading to a racial gang war as the White American Crush formed Disciples of Apocalypse and the Hispanic Vega formed Los Boricuas. Nation, DOA and Boricuas battled each other throughout 1997.
As a result of Hunter Hearst Helmsley defeating Mankind to win the King of the Ring tournament, Mankind and Helmsley feuded with each other for several months. After ending his rivalry with Mankind and his alter ego, Dude Love, Helmsley found immediate success by forming the comedic faction D-Generation X with Shawn Michaels, Chyna and Rick Rude.
