The J.O.B. Squad was a professional wrestling stable 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 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.
