Warrior/Sting fate flop.
By Scott Keith on 15 February 2024
Let's pretend Warrior and Sting flip fates in how their careers went. Warrior would have undoubtedly burned out even faster in the NWA/WCW, but would Sting have been able to carry the torch after Hogan, or were those shoes simply too big to fill at that time? He certainly could have done better in the role of carrying the company, even if it wasn't on Hogans level, right?
Sting in the WWF is a very interesting scenario and I’m not sure how it would play out. The thing is that I can’t even assume he would get to main event level because he was big but wasn’t BIG, PAL. Like he feels more like someone working with Mr Perfect on B shows and not the guy to carry the company in the eyes of the rapist in charge. But yeah, Warrior would probably flake out the first time Ole confronted him, if he didn’t die of cocaine overdose first.
