Starrcade 1997 Live Discussion - July 16, 2020

[Chris]

They had to sell it

 

[Chris]

They coulda swapped him for nWo Sting in Japan and no one would have known

 

[Kross Rhodes]

The sell was pretty epic, but I'd rather Sting be in shape. As long as he doesn't work on TV, I'm fine with him doing tours internationally. Sting's main story was not working for WCW because THEY turned on him. NJPW didn't.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Shit, put him in a mask when he's working Japan.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Put him in a Sting mask

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Hollywood's ring gear is so great. He's come so far from generic yellow trunks.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Another reason 1998 is so good because Sting bounces back fast.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Hogan just pinned Sting clean?!

 

[Kross Rhodes]

What's Bret talking about? Won't let what happen again? That was clean?@

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Yeah that count ain't look fast to me

 

[Kross Rhodes]

So the announcers finally got what they wanted. Bret's helping WCW cheat.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Twitter would have been going wild at that shit...

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I will say controversy aside, Hogan tapping for Sting is huge.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Hogan was robbed

 

[Kross Rhodes]

WCW has finally toppled nWo?! How will they comeback from losing the belt and Nitro? Do they have any power left? I guess we'll find out in 1998.
