The anti-Sting thread
Why do people like Sting?
1. He looks like the Crow, and the movie hasn't been cool for 10 years. 2. He says, "Wooooooooo," which is Ric Flair's catch phrase. 3. He says, "Showtime!" which is lame. 4. His finishing moves are the Stinger splash, which is weak and the scorpion deathlock which is nothing more than a sharpshoot. Sharpshooters always remind me of Bret Hart and he sucks. 5. He refuses to work WWE, which is dumb. So yeah, why is this guy popular, or is it just that he is over enough and been around forever therefore he must be good and no one questions it? |

The only matches of Stings that I liked were his with Ric Flair.

He would never have gotten over without Flair, that's for sure.
Also, he insists on painting his penis black and white before making love. Weird-ass fucker. |

Sting is pretty overrated. When he was feuding with the NWO it was totally awesome....then he wrestled again.

I had no idea what the Crow was. It wasn't until after that I found out it was a movie character. Lame I know.

All the Sting v Flair matches except that one on the final Nitro, when Ric looked like he just didn't care anymore.

I don't get what so good about Sting, other then he was loyal to WCW, he was an average uppercard worker that got over with a few fans.

Sting is a decent worker, certainly had a certain level of charisma, but he is not a legend. He's matches with FLAIR were great, but for like 2 decades FLAIR could do no wrong really. Other than that, I guess him quazi-beating the nWo was a nice mark out moment, but since the nWo didn't go away and I would have cheered a towel to victory over Hogan, he doesn't retain much glory there. All in all, he's ok, not a great in ring performer, certainly someone who has ridden gimmicks to glory...whatever...
Also, SHAWN MICHAELS is a devoted Christian now, and he works to WWE. So Sting's whole, "They're just a bunch of heathens and devil worshipers over in WWE" theory is kind of dumb. |

The man's charisma and character just connects with the fans. It's not so much cheering his workrate or what have you, just the man himself. The man is going to be a legend thanks to his ability to get asses in the seats.

I never EVER understood why people say Sting is the WCW Undertaker. They're nothing alike at all.

There's clearly a link there. I agree they're nothing alike in terms of specifics, or their look or wrestling. But the similarities are there, at least enough so to view Sting as WCW's version of an enigmatic force. That's why, if Sting came or was still to come to WWE, Undertaker would likely be his first fued or his big payoff dream match/fued. People would eat it up, and to be quite honest they would compliment eachother quite well story-wise and in ring, not to mention the angle having the appeal to draw in massive money and have the legs to go a while. As for Sting, as pertains to the discussion of him sucking or being overrated...I'm not gonna lie, I once hated Sting. Not even long ago. I thought he was a ripoff of the Crow and a tad on the stale side because of it, as well as being slightly above average in the ring. I still maintain that this is true, he is certainly overrated but that's only because people rate him so high. He's okay, I can get past the blatant ripoffs and enjoy his schtick for the most part. He's also okay on the mic and solid in ring work is better than most in ring work these days. So, I suppose I like Sting, but he's certainly not nearly the deal he's made out to be. He has however had a long and good career. I think a lot of his appeal still stems from the fact that he's never wrestled in WWE and it seems to be what everyone still wants and keeps hoping for. I'm sure it's the question he gets asked most often. In fact, even when the guy was interviewed in my local paper for his participation in a local christian film festival, even the newspaper asked him if he'd ever work in WWE. Pound for pound. Good wrestler, good enough gimmick, has certainly gotten past the test of time and gotten away with being an imitation. Credit for that. Overrated, but he's certainly had a good career. |
