Starrcade 1997 Live Discussion - July 16, 2020

[Kross Rhodes]

Damn. RIP Chris as Wolfpac Sting

 

[Chris]

I'll ask if she wants to try and find any, she loves any excuse to go through her pictures...maybe she'll actually organize then

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Only time I went as Sting I had a Sting mask. It was the year after I went as DDP

 

[Chris]

That Frankensteiner

 

[Chris]

I think Sting was the only wrestler I actually was for Halloween now that I think about it but I feel like I'm forgetting one

 

[Hidden Blaze]

I don't know if y'all remember them really poorly made WCW Costumes they had for kids back then.

 

[Chris]

Yes bc I picked the Sting facepaint instead bc my mom said she'd paint it on bc the costumes were trash lol

 

[Chris]

WWF's were too

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I will say maybe not this show, but had WCW been consistent for the entirety of 1998, WCW might have eventually put WWF out. As popular as Austin was, their star department was so much lower than WCW in 1998. The key was no losing steam and using Bret Hart to get WCW even higher than it was in 1997. Especially since Goldberg was right behind Austin in terms of drawing ratings.

 

[Chris]

The kit came with both wolfpac and black and white Sting, I only dressed up the once though

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Now that this match is over, Steiners were supposed to win this match, but Savage wasn't being booked on his night off and losing.

 

[Chris]

The WCW Hotline

 

[Hidden Blaze]

that's great, I can def see them supposed to win over the original team and I kinda don't mind the finish change anyway
