1997 was the peak of the tail end of the Golden age of human civilization. Everything changed with the internet.
I always considered myself a die hard WWF mark during the Monday Night Wars, but Crow Sting was my favorite wrestling angle of all time.
They say the Sting NWO storyline in 97 was the best storyline of WCW. Hell to me that’s the best storyline of wrestling period. There will never be another one like it. I know everyone says Austin and McMahon, but in my opinion that was just a great feud. Sting turning dark in general was just a storyline and was relatable in many ways. A person who always carried the load of who was always there for others and he got taken for granted and once he loyalty was questioned, he drifted off on his own and hid in the shadows. Every week you felt that emotion and Steve Borden played that so well. It was like an ongoing movie and yeah that Starrcade ending was botched but it still was an amazing story. There’s not a storyline close to that at all.
I wanna live on some property like Bischoff has: Just walk out on the front of my porch or patio & look at the deer just running by,a lake showing a reflection of nature,a morning cup of coffee just enjoying nature
Sting is was and always will be THE MAN.
Bischoff thought he was boring the listeners with his in-depth talk on story structures n characters. I appreciated every word. Many of us from that era share the same opinion as E. Matches, athletism etc are a foundation of the business. But captivating, intense well-told stories are just as and even more important to me. Wwe hit 6 to 7million viewers during the attitude era. I timed a few episodes back then. The average amount of time spent on matches from 9 to 11 o clock was 25 minutes. And they had millions of viewers who are non wrestling fans like my grandmother, hooked on the storylines while not giving a damn about wrestling.
Sting 97 was Masterfully crafted too bad the match was a letdown.
The cover art for this show is hands down the best of the Conrad series of shows!
I've never heard someone talk so much and not say a word
I love watching the 1997 Sting vs nWo content.
Starts at
COVID19 Drinking Game: Drink every time Bischoff says "mystique"! :)
Sting's 1996 was a superb episode. I expect this one to be even better!
At about an hour in, Eric tells a great story. Then he goes on to say how the early morning shows are great because he has so much energy. Eric, as much as I love those shows, my favorites are the one's where half way through, you're loaded and slurring your words. That's when we get how Eric really feels. Love the show, guys.
"........." Sting's quotes in 1997
Dude 83Weeks rocks man! Absolutely love these podcasts. Thank you so much!
97 was the year I fell in love with wrestling. Went as Crow Sting for 97 and 98 Halloween.
Built sting up for 18 months that was absolutely masterful, BUT then you messed it all up at Starrcade so it almost doesn’t even matter.
Last thing I expected was to fall for Eric and Conrad’s chemistry. Great shows guys.
