Sting talking about why he refused to join WWE. Sting originally refused to join WWE after the 2001 WCW buyout because he didn’t trust how Vince McMahon would book his character. He was also highly critical of how WWE treated WCW stars during the Invasion. One moment that really... show more

Sting on why he didn’t join WWE after they purchased WCW “The Rock looks at Booker T and he says who are you? That 1 little comment is all it took to just bury somebody. Let’s let the world know you’re a WCW guy and you’re a peon here.”

“I’ll never forget Booker T making his first appearance… The Rock comes into the ring… looks at Booker T and says, ‘Who are you?’ Sting says this one segment convinced him not to jump to WWE when they purchased WCW. Booker T still overcame it because he’s that talented… but Sting wasn’t willing to take the same risk.

WWE 2025 = WCW 1998 "1998 WCW was actually their most successful year they ever had yet most people will point to Sting not beating Hogan in that travesty at Starrcade as the beginning of the end. They lucked into Bill Goldberg so the mistake of Starrcade didn't really hurt them cause Goldberg got so hot. This year maybe [WWE] would've had trouble and gone down a little bit but the Cena thing was so big. If you took [Cena] away would they have had as big of a year?" - Dave Meltzer

Eric Bischoff is dropping a BOMB regarding the most infamous firing in wrestling history. He openly laughs at the idea that he regrets cutting Stone Cold Steve Austin from WCW, claiming that if he hadn't pulled the trigger, the Stone Cold character would have NEVER existed. Bischoff argues that Vince McMahon did not create the persona. When Austin arrived in WWE, he was the Ringmaster, a gimmick Bischoff describes as sucking. It was only after hitting rock bottom, leaving WWE for a stint in ECW, that Austin found his voice and created the Stone Cold character himself. Bischoff insists the character was not handed down by corporate creative genius, but was born out of pure necessity and soul searching. He maintains that if Austin had stayed in WCW, he never would have found that edge. Is Eric Bischoff just rewriting history to save face, or did he accidentally create the biggest star in the industry? 🚨 (source: 83 Weeks 83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff)

Vince McMahon going off script and giving it to Kevin Nash, after he'd only wrestled one singles match in 6 months after re-signing with the company. Nash was famous for swerving people on the microphone in WCW when he had power, so he got it back a few times in WWE.

At a private party in Figline Valdarno Tuscany, Italy, Sting grabbed his guitar for a song he called "Englishman in New York". Sting wrote the song about the famous eccentric and gay icon Quentin Crisp, who is the "Englishman" of the title. The song was composed not long after Crisp had moved from London to an apartment in the Bowery in Manhattan. Sting had met him and Crisp remarked jokingly to the musician that he "looked forward to receiving his naturalisation papers so that I can commit a crime and not be deported." When Sting asked him what kind of crime, he answered, "Something glamorous, non-violent, with a dash of style. Crime is so rarely glamorous these days." Sting included this story in the liner notes of his album ...Nothing Like The Sun. #Sting

The NWO Japan era was so crazy for the guys involved. A couple of them confirmed to me, they were not only getting paid by WCW, but also taking a second paycheck by New Japan when doing these tours (it was eventually noticed by WCW and stopped). But these looked like crazy times, especially having entire storylines that were never discussed on WCW TV. Here's a promo with NWO Sting, Masa Chono, Buff Bagwell, and Scott Norton from March 1997

Raven was asked when he was in ECW, was the goal to get back to WWE or WCW? “I was really happy at ECW but yes, I wanted to go back to WWE. I wanted to be the top guy in the top promotion. I got to be the top guy in the number three promotion. And for a long time, I felt like my career was a failure because of that. I think I talked about it in the movie, in the documentary, but it took a lot of time on a therapist couch to let myself off the hook. Because you hold yourself to such a high standard that I can’t see the forest for the trees. If anybody would have came up to me and told me what my career was, and it was theirs. I said, Man, you got a really successful career. But I couldn’t count it as with that for me, because I didn’t get to be a World Champion of the WWE. (Chris Van Vliet)

🔥 TED TURNER LITERALLY CREATED THE WWF THEN THE WWE THAT WE KNOW TODAY. “He’s a son of a b*tch. Other than that he’s probably not a bad guy guy” - Vince McMahon Vince McMahon literally hated Ted Turner because he saw him as a bored billionaire trying to put WWF out of business by acquiring all their stars like Hogan & Savage… then Kevin Nash & Scott Hall. WCW was crushing Vince in the ratings for weeks in a row and bleeding them dry. Then… Vince morphed into another level of ruthless with the “Attitude Era” and buried them in the ratings & that culminated years later with Vince purchasing WCW. The first thing SAVAGE Vince did was fire Jeff Jarrett live on the air for holding him up for $300K dollars years to drop the IC Belt earlier before jumping ship to WCW LOL. WWF was worth about $50 million in 1995. By 1999 it had an IPO on Wall Street and was worth $ 1 BILLION DOLLARS. That goes to show you the beauty of competition & capitalism in America. Years later when Vince was asked he said he “Wished they were still around” “Alexander WEPT… for there were no worlds left for him to conquer”

The legendary artist Sting was asked about what his main memory was from Live Aid, he said: "I enjoyed it. After I’d sung, I had a ball watching everyone do their thing." "If there was a winner that day it was Queen. Such a slick show. That performance was so fantastic. Freddie was an amazing performer, who not only performed to the top of his abilities, he also orchestrated the entire stadium crowd so they became part of the performance. He was an incredible musician and great singer. A complete one-off. He was Amazing." #LiveAid #Queen #Sting #FreddieMercury #Legend

Robert Redford didn't watch "The Sting" (1973) until 2004, 31 years after the movie was released. He finally decided to see it when he and his grandson were hunting for a video to watch. Redford said, "I had never seen 'The Sting' up until then. I was in Europe making 'The Great Gatsby' (1974) when it came out in cinemas and then afterwards I didn’t really want to look back. My daughter asked us to get pizza and an old movie. My grandson said he hadn’t seen The Sting, and I said, ‘How come? What’s the matter with your mother?’ Then he asked if I had seen it and I had to say ‘No’. We watched it and I really loved it." P.S: Remembering the great American actor and filmmaker, Robert Redford on his 90th birthday!

Undertaker says Vince McMahon didn’t want to do Sting vs. Undertaker match: “I was like, ‘Man, this is a home run. This is an easy main event for a pay-per-view.’ I don’t really have an answer. I never really had an in-depth conversation with Vince about why he didn’t want to do it. My goodness, Sting vs. Undertaker. “Again, he obviously knows more about business than I do, but that one just seems like a home run. They decided to walk the guy instead of pitch to him. I don’t know. I don’t know what happened there. I don’t have any regrets. It wasn’t my decision, but my goodness, I would’ve loved to have been able to have that match. I remember running into Sting. I think it was after the WrestleMania that we didn’t work. I remember us being on the same plane together, talking. Like, ‘I don’t know. This is beyond me. I don’t know why.’ It is what it is, man, I guess. I think Sting, that’s probably got to be the biggest miss of a WrestleMania. Those two characters, that would have done some incredible business.” (Six Feet Under)

When Bray Wyatt was on, he was ON. Of all the stuff he did in WWE, I always loved his goodbye promo from NXT. One of the best WWE babyface promos in years and years - it’s a shame this version of Bray didn’t get to be a face. He would’ve been incredible. Rest in peace.
