5The New Age Outlaws were a ProfessionalWrestling TagTeam in the [[Wrestling/{{WWE}} WWF]] made up of [[Wrestling/RoadDogg "Road Dogg" Jesse James]] and [[Wrestling/BillyGunn "Badd Ass" Billy Gunn]]. The duo achieved high levels of success after joining the stable Wrestling/DGenerationX in 1998, becoming extremely popular and becoming of the most popular duos of the WWF's Wrestling/AttitudeEra.
6
7Upon parting ways with the WWF, the team reformed in several promotions, mostly notably in [[Wrestling/ImpactWrestling Total Nonstop Action Wrestling]] where, under the ringnames B.G. James and Kip James, they performed collectively as the James Gang and then as the Voodoo Kin Mafia (the latter of which was a play on the initials of their former boss in the WWF, Wrestling/VinceMcMahon). The team returned to periodic active competition in WWE under its original name in 2013 (with both members also having full-time backstage jobs with the company as well, until Billy Gunn signed with Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling as producer in 2019).
8
9They are six-time tag team champions in WWE, having held the WWF World Tag Team Championship five times and the WWE Tag Team Championship once. They were also inducted into the Wrestling/WWEHallOfFame alongside the rest of [[Wrestling/DGenerationX the DX army]] in 2019.

11!!Tropes
12* BadassCrew: Exaggerated when they joined Wrestling/DGenerationX, becoming a TagTeam [[MatryoshkaObject within a]] PowerStable.
13* CampStraight: Billy Gunn, a man infatuated with asses, but who wasn't necessarily gay.
14* {{Catchphrase}}: "YOUR ASS BETTER CAAAAAAAAALLLL SOMEBODY!"
15* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder:
16** Roadie [[{{Kayfabe}} revealing]] that he, not Wrestling/JeffJarrett, had "sung" "With My Baby Tonight".
17** The team formed after [[Wrestling/TooColdScorpio Flash Funk]] had defeated Rockabilly on ''[[{{BShow}} Shotgun Saturday Night]]'' and the renamed Road Dogg had convinced Rockabilly to leave the Honky Tonk Man and team with him. Rockabilly agreed, nailing HTM with his guitar. Extra notable due to HTM having managed the two in recent tag matches, victories included, before this.
18* DoItYourselfThemeTune: "Oh, you didn't know?"
19* {{Jerkass}}: Oh boy were they surly.
20* OddCouple: One was a showman-esque wrestler and member of an illustrious wrestling family who wore street clothes to the ring and had a voice of velvet. The other had an [[UnrelatedBrothers unrelated brother]] who is a power wrestler who wore just wrestling shorts and boots and had average mic skills. Together, [[WunzaPlot they... win tag team titles!]]
21* RedBaron: The Road Dogg had "Roadie", "The Real Double J", and "Road Dogg", Billy had "Rockabilly", "Bad Ass", "Mr. Ass", and "The One"
22* UnderwearOfPower: Billy Gunn.
23* WrestlingDoesntPay: Before teaming with each other, James was Wrestling/JeffJarrett's roadie, and Gunn was a cowboy with his "brother" in The Smoking Guns.
24* WrestlingFamily: Road Dogg is a member of the Armstrong wrestling family.
