Crow Sting was on e of the best characters ever. -- nm - Shaun Jul 11, 18:03
He was better with The Police -- nm - Dano Jul 11, 17:15
yeah he's not great. -- nm - Remlik Jul 11, 17:12
Tantric? -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 11, 16:41
Pretty charismatic, but overall, he's generally thought to be a not all that. - Will Hunting Jul 11, 16:41 32
- He was considered the most talented wrestler in the world for years. - David Jul 11, 16:50 31
  - That was pure hype. He had a look and he had some skills but when it came to the big matches he'd choke for years.... - Remlik Jul 11, 17:13 2
    - People don't win Match of the Year if they can't wrestle, dude. -- nm - David Jul 11, 17:31 1
      - It's rigged, dumas! -- nm - Max Jul 11, 17:41
  - There's a major reason he was never made the franchise with long title runs...cuz he didn't draw as champ - Will Hunting Jul 11, 16:59 16
    - I agree with Will -- nm - Walt_Disney Jul 11, 17:08
    - Draw is different from wrestling, but even if we go there... - David Jul 11, 17:06 14
      - WWE was changing. Sting might been top notch in the late 80's on some in-ring, but by 91...it was back to Flair - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:11 5
        
        Hogan is one of the worst actual wrestlers of all-time. -- nm - Shaun Jul 11, 17:38 2
        
        Oh, unquestionably. You'll never hear me argue otherwise - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:40 1
        
        His most advanced move would be a suplex :) -- nm - Shaun Jul 11, 17:41
        
        I do think it's a telling sign of respect that Brett Hart stole Sting's signature move. -- nm - David Jul 11, 17:34
        
        major reason right there he never held the strap for long at the height of WCW. -- nm - Remlik Jul 11, 17:21
      - (He was the deluxe version of Kerry Von Erich in that he had charisma on top of a great look.) -- nm - David Jul 11, 17:07 7
        
        Okay, let me amend my below post......1997 Sting .... not good in the ring with Hogan - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:13 6
        
        Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like everybody else, he slowed down as he got older. - David Jul 11, 17:33 5
        
        It does amaze me how certain guys are legends (Lawler) - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:38 4
        
        Exactly. I love Arn Anderson to death (he's in my top 3 ever), but he has the natural athleticism of Jay Baruchel. -- nm - David Jul 11, 17:43 3
        
        but boy did he get us to really care or hate him. -- nm - Remlik Jul 11, 17:46 2
        
        After The Rock, he's THE best interview I've ever seen. -- nm - David Jul 11, 18:00
        
        It annoys me how little Vince will consider managers for guys who can't talk - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:48
  - on what world? davidcrazyworld? - chuckles Jul 11, 16:53 10
    - Why are you so obsessed with discussing things of which you have no knowledge? -- nm - David Jul 11, 17:04 6
      - i can understand why Vince McMahon never wanted to pay for a cheap Ultimate Warrior ripoff when he already had the original -- nm - chuckles Jul 11, 17:09 4
        
        Oh honey, this is why you can't have nice opinions. The WWF chased after Sting for 15 years. -- nm - David Jul 11, 17:30
        
        Different shades of similar.....but Sting was so much more than Warrior over the long term - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:15
        
        they talked serious for about 2 years after WCW and before TNA. -- nm - Remlik Jul 11, 17:14 1
        
        Makes perfect sense...he's the biggest name to never jump; he was pretty popular overall for the #2 - Will Hunting Jul 11, 17:16
      - He is making up for lost time. -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 11, 17:06
    - This thread makes me miss the WC talk. -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 11, 16:55 2
      - Both involve a lot of fake flopping. -- nm - Dano Jul 11, 17:01
      - I missed a Water Closet thread? :( -- nm - peglegpete Jul 11, 17:01
