Sting : WCW 1997 Collection

[@jjbjjb273]

Sting transformation from surfer to crow was one of the best in wrestling history

[@SwanRonsonDonnyJepp]

Agreed 100% 😁💪👍

[@TheRustedShackleford]

Then damn near ruined by that terrible match with Hogan.

[@kingwinter2024]

@@TheRustedShackleford I think that Sting's credibility was ruined when he joined the n.W.o as the black and red "Wolfpac Sting".

[@gumdeo]

Crow Sting, another great idea from Scott Hall.

[@ajtaylor8750]

The Crow Sting is simply iconic and the aura that the character brought to WCW Nitro made it a moment whenever he showed up the the show. Sting really took a gamble going from the beloved Surfer gimmick to the dark antihero, but man did it pay off and make for one of the most iconic characters in wrestling history.

[@GARRISVANHORN]

It definitely was going to be epic because we was so used to the Surfer Sting. When Sting went Dark it was something new and exciting

[@Romeoz06]

This is the best video of Sting chronicles on the internet. You will not anything better. Really brought back memories when I was a child.

[@tonyreimer6804]

When you released the compilations from 1996 I immediately started looking forward to this one. Sting in ‘97 is one of the most iconic years for a wrestler, ever

[@XKTwentyFive]

Sting was so cool in '97. He was my favorite wrestler that year. You never knew when he was going to show up, but it was in a good way and done right.

[@energy8025]

Definitely. Wrestler of the year in 97.

[@Will-fk2dk]

Without question! And to be honest, there is no way this should have worked. Sting was a beloved character. People knew WHO he was... WHAT he was. Then, in the middle of one of the Greatest Heel Turns of All Time (Hulkster) and the utter domination of the NWO over ALL of Wrestling, somehow Sting completely changes wmWHO and WHAT he is, and of all things, he chooses the exact same colors as the NWO, and the face paint of... The Crow. There is just no way this should have worked. No. Way. I mean, many people loved Sting, and many people loved the movie "The Crow". But the combination of the 2? Crickets. But for whatever reason, this was EXACTLY what the fans of Sting and of WCW wanted. Needed. It's still one of the greatest storyline of my lifetime.

[@N8tiveItalian]

Chills everytime he'd show up and clean house. As a child Sting was freaking GOD

1997 Sting is my favorite Sting

[@vincentalmojera5412]

Awesome , this is so great. I didn't have cable back in the 90's as I grew up in a poor family so I never had the chance to watch this stuff. Back in high school I actually thought that everyone talking about the N.W.O. was the phantom government conspiracy that has to do with the words new world order in Latin on the back of American money. It wasn't till 2000 that I finally knew who Hollywood Hogan was and that it was just a heel version of Hulk Hogan and even learned of the Monday night wars. I really lived in a bubble back then. So this is great, while most of you guys are reliving it , I am actually experiencing most of this for the first time. Thanks so much Wrestling Bios for introducing me to Raw vs Nitro the Monday night wars.

[@Media_Gamer_Nation]

Love how he laughed out of script when saying that python is a little more brothered than the other! And it always brings a smile to my face when I hear kick or be kicking ever since the first ep of revliving the war ages ago!

[@adizz4115]

Sting came back at starcade was epic. The build up and storyline was one the best history of wcw.

[@midsectionmark8956]

Sting is no the doubt top 10 wrestlers of all time! The longevity of this man is crazy and he’s pretty much always been a big deal since rising to the top in wcw .

[@michaelaburns734]

The Crow Sting is what I watched and I really enjoyed his gimmick after The Surfer Sting was retired.

[@speedcola4378]

It's amazing that even to this day, Sting is a walking high spot.

[@blacknapalm2131]

Right?! How crazy is it that in every recent AEW PPV with some of the craziest high risk performers in the business that it's still the STINGER that does the nights high spot!

[@JeremiahLOsborne]

That contract was brilliant! I appreciate your sense of humor very much!

[@wawaelias8842]

i remember going to a house show, and the N.W.O came out at the beginning of the show. To cut a promo and call out sting, and when sting didn't come out at the beginning of the show everyone was booing and my heart was hurt. Until the end when the N.W.O was jumping on D.D.P, and sting came zip lining down!!! The roof came off the building!! It was an unforgettable night!

i love how you use n64 wcw world tour and wcw/nwo revenge music from the games its so awesome music for these videos and fits them so perfectly, the music brings back so many memories from my teenage years playing them games fighting my friends over the n64 games being better than the ps1 wcw nitro and thunder games witch to be honest they where the exact same game (pretty much)

[@jayb-clay2724]

That Sting storyline was so well told and didn't really feel like it was drug out. Sting should of won the title clean at Starrcade and then the NWO should of disbanded. Have the Wolfpack still with Nash Hall and Syxx and left it at that. I wish I could of booked from Starrcade 97 onward.

He should've won the U.S. title from Henning so it was title for title. Give it that little extra hype like a certain other Hogan program he was famous for. With a weekly show and like 3 month build of title vs title... epic, also would of kept Sting in shape going into Starcade

Back when Sting was awesome. Shame they ruined him in 1998.

[@TheJokesterSCR]

How TF did they ruin him? Wolfpack Sting was dope. Then his return to black and white, just with more personality. He couldn't keep doing the no talking thing forever. It worked for the storyline being told with the NWO. It wouldn't have worked moving forward. Sting has always been awesome. Aside from the few times when promoters attempted turning him heel and absolutely nobody bought into it, LOL! Luckily, those were very short lived.
