i remember when all this went down....
JR announcing a few weeks before it happened that "Diesel" and "Razor Ramon" were returning to the WWF....the still somewhat infant-like internet was buzzing,and Hall and Nash came out with statements saying they weren't leaving WCW,so no one knew what the hell was going on...
then,at the PPV the night before the Raw debuts, they had them attacking someone (can't remember whi) backstage,in full gear,but with their backs to the camera,so you never saw the faces,which just added to the intrigue....

they attacked Savio Vega on the PPV. Vega then ran out the next night after "Razor" was introduced on Raw and attacked him

I always just saw them more of an intentional parody to make fun of Hall and Nash since they jumped ship. And I feel like I remember Glen Jacobs doing the Jacknife, but did Bogner ever do the Razor's Edge?

Rumors had it back then that The Rock was orginally going to debut has "The original Razor Ramon" they felt that Rocky's tan skin can easily pass him off as cuban, with Glenn Jacobs playing New Diesel. However JR and Pat Paterson convinced Rocky to debut as the blue Chipper.

WWF didnt have a lot of success mocking former superstars (see Huckster, Nach Man sketches). If you think about it logically, it really doesnt make sense for the company itself to make fun of former superstars everyone still loves.
