Squad was a professional wrestling faction in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in the late 1990s. The theme of the group was that each member was a perennial enhancement talent (otherwise known as jobbers), in which they lost to established or up-and-coming wrestlers. The acronym J.O.B. was said to stand for "Just Over Broke",[3] a reference to wrestlers' penchant for appearing in preliminary matches and, therefore, being on the low end of the pay scale. The J.O.B. Squad wore shirts resembling nWo's shirts as a parody of the many nWo factions and offshoots in World Championship Wrestling (WCW). Road Dogg was first seen wearing the shirt and made reference to "the squad" on the March 30, 1998 episode of Raw Is War, the night after WrestleMania XIV and the same night that he, Billy Gunn and X-Pac joined D-Generation X. HistoryIn November 1998, Al Snow, Bob Holly and Scorpio united and formed the J.O.B. Squad. Soon after their formation, Holly and Scorpio defeated Too Much in the Squad's first match on the November 8 episode of Sunday Night Heat.[1] On the November 22 episode of Raw Is War, The J.O.B. Squad helped Mankind defeat Ken Shamrock and Big Boss Man in a triple threat match.[1] After helping Mankind, The J.O.B. Squad gained a new member in Duane Gill, who then scored an upset over Christian by winning the Light Heavyweight Championship.[1] The Squad would score another upset later on in the night as they defeated The New Age Outlaws after interference from Shamrock, Boss Man, Mankind and other J.O.B. Squad members.[1] Gill was later renamed Gillberg, and he began parodying the mannerisms and ring entrance style of then WCW World Heavyweight Champion Goldberg.[1] On the November 29 episode of Sunday Night Heat, Gillberg faced Christian in a rematch for the Light Heavyweight Championship, but the match ended in a double disqualification after the debuting Blue Meanie, a new member of The J.O.B. Squad, interfered.[1] On the following episode of Raw Is War, Gillberg scored another upset when he defeated Marc Mero, who had to (in storyline) retire from wrestling if he lost.[1] On December 13 at Rock Bottom, Gillberg defeated Matt Hardy to retain the Light Heavyweight Championship on an episode of Sunday Night Heat.[1] However, The Brood defeated Snow, Scorpio, and Holly on the pay-per-view.[1] A month later at the Royal Rumble, Blue Meanie, Snow, and Gillberg were each eliminated from the Royal Rumble match within a span of ten seconds. SplitIn February 1999, Scorpio was released by the WWF while Gillberg was later phased out of storylines. After dwindling down to only two members, Snow wrestled against himself on an episode of Raw Is War before Holly came down to the ring to prevent Snow from hurting himself, which led to the formal breakup of The J.O.B. Squad.[1] Later that month at St. Valentine's Day Massacre, Bob Holly defeated Snow for the Hardcore Championship to permanently end The J.O.B. Squad.[1] After making sporadic appearances throughout 1999 (including losing to Tiger Ali Singh at the UK No Mercy pay-per-view), Gillberg lost his Light Heavyweight Championship to the debuting Essa Rios on a February 2000 episode of Sunday Night Heat. Gill soon left the company afterwards.[1] MembersImageSize = width:900 height:150 PlotArea = left:170 bottom:60 top:0 right:50 Alignbars = justify DateFormat = mm/dd/yyyy Period = from:11/02/1998 till:02/14/1999 TimeAxis = orientation:horizontal format:yyyy Colors = id:Leader value:red legend:Leader id:Member value:green legend:Member Legend = orientation:horizontal position:bottom ScaleMinor = unit:month increment:1 start:11/02/1998 LineData = at:11/02/1998 color:black layer:back at:02/14/1999 color:black layer:back BarData = bar:Snow text:"Al Snow" bar:Holly text:"Bob Holly" bar:Scorpio text:"Scorpio" bar:Gillberg text:"Duane Gill/Gillberg" bar:Meanie text:"The Blue Meanie" PlotData= width:10 textcolor:black align:left anchor:from shift:(10,-4) bar:Snow from:11/02/1998 till:02/14/1999 color: Leader bar:Holly from:11/02/1998 till:02/14/1999 color: Member bar:Scorpio from:11/02/1998 till:01/31/1999 color: Member bar:Gillberg from:11/17/1998 till:01/11/1999 color: Member bar:Meanie from:11/29/1998 till:02/13/1999 color: Member Championships and accomplishments
