A "Turning Point" for TNA?

**NeanderCarl** · 11-02-2008, 01:43 PM

I think Sting working as a heel doing something fresh and new (for him) could work out the same way fans were attracted to WCW when Hogan turned heel. You see, Hogan still attracted the interest of wrestling fans, they just had no desire to see more of the same they'd seen for a decade. By turning and doing something fresh, Hogan became watchable again. Even casual fans tend to know Sting, but nobody is really jumping to TNA to watch him relive WCW 1997... but now he's a cooler character altogether, and teaming with a bunch of other famous wrestlerts too in relatively different roles, it could draw in a few curious casuals... or even a lot.
