Crow Sting was the best storyline in all of Wrestling in 1997 until they botched the finish with Hogan.
How ? They stripped him of his personality…Crow Sting was the best storyline in all of Wrestling in 1997 until they botched the finish with Hogan.
The anticipation of Sting coming down to the rafters, the play of trust with the bat, being one of the few to get the upper hand on the nWo was awesome. The ratings showed that it was the storyline fans invested in most.How ? They stripped him of his personality…
The guy never said anything, wasn’t a savior, wasn’t a baby face or heel…
It would have been one thing if he came in with that persona like the Undertaker did— but to go from a colorful flashy character to this is just bizarre…
And Shame on WWE for not giving us Sting VS Undertaker.Crow Sting was a major draw and Starrcade 97 was the highest buyrate in WCW history. It was all mostly due to him and how him vs Hogan was built. I don’t think he is overrated at all but I wish he hadn’t wasted so many years in TNA.
I agree. It was a huge build a draw and brought in BIG money. Only wcw PPV I ever bought. The finish and payoff was….WCW, a major let down.Crow Sting was a major draw and Starrcade 97 was the highest buyrate in WCW history. It was all mostly due to him and how him vs Hogan was built.

Blah, it wouldn’t have been a good match.And Shame on WWE for not giving us Sting VS Undertaker.
If they would have let Sting go over HHH, they could have set up Sting and Undertaker as a match that would have damn near been the main event of the next mania. But no way Vince lets a WCW guy go over DX.And Shame on WWE for not giving us Sting VS Undertaker.
The characters alone would’ve made it intriguing.Blah, it wouldn’t have been a good match.
Sting has always had really good size and athleticism as well. Same obviously goes for Taker. I personally think it would have been great.The characters alone would’ve made it intriguing.
A chaotic final match for Sting but wouldn’t have it any other way. Great finish to his career.
And my word Darbys bump into the glass was rough to watch. His back looked like a murder victim after it.
