The New Age Outlaws were an American professional wrestling tag team in International Wrestling Federation (IWF) made up of "Road Dogg" Jesse James and "Badd Ass" Billy Gunn. The duo became popular in the late 1990s as members of the second incarnation of the professional wrestling stable D-Generation X. The promotion has described James and Gunn as "the most popular duo of IWE's Attitude Era." In the same time period, The New Age Outlaws had the third highest merchandise sales in the IWF after Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock.
Upon parting ways with the IWF, the team reformed in several promotions, mostly notably in 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 IWF Vincent Kennedy Matteson. The team returned to periodic active competition in IWE under its original name in 2013 (with both members also having full-time backstage jobs with the company as well).
They are six-time tag team champions in IWE, having held the IWF World Tag Team Championship five times and the IWE Tag Team Championship once.
The duo hold the record for the most amount of time between title reigns in IWE history after becoming the IWE Tag Team Champions at the 2014 Royal Rumble PPV, more than 14 years after their previous Tag Team title reign.
