2543496, Sting: 88 - 94
Posted by jimaveli, Sun Jun-05-16 08:05 AM
I've been in the midst of some Sting watching. He really was a solid tweener (big enough to play power but small/athletic enough to jump around without folks hating on him in the antiquated era of 'size is everything'). He's kinda like Jern except he'd seemingly show up and job out skraight up from time to time. I watched a cold ass Vader match from 92 where the Vader did the whole 'falling down is a big deal for me' monster thing. It was very Brock-ish. And like Brock, big Leon wasn't above showing hella ass when the time came.

Side: I casually blame Hogan's arrival on ruining Sting's WCW run....hence the 94 end date. That Starrcade shit was just more nails in the coffin. Maybe Sting's abuse issues were dragging him down either way. Hoke ain't help tho.
