Iv really enjoyed this video reminds me of the days when I would get as many DVDs from HMV and watch all of the TNA PPVs :) If you would like an idea for a top 10 Matches why not Christopher Daniels. Everyone would say AJ, Joe, MCMG and Beer Money but no one asks for top 10 Daniels Matches so why not give us something different :)
He is Jericho are easily the first two on my Mount Rushmore. Their ability to get over younger talent and their own multiple gimmicks are the greatest i've seen. Joker Sting is terrible on paper but executed perfectly I loved it.
Sting actually worked to help the business, he was a veteran it was worth having. Him, Angle, Steiner, Dudley's, Hardy's, maybe Flair should have been the majority of the veterans they used for big name guys. RVD probably not, he never did anything to help their own guys. Angle was actually making new stars like Samoa Joe and putting TNA on the map but then the stupid management used the growth to bring in tonnes of creative control guys to bury their own talent. 😢😢😢
During Bound for Glory 2007, Sting actually doesn't block the bat, he takes a full force unprotected bat shot to the face, no sells it, gives Angle a receipt, wins the match and is super busted open. But it made the finish look amazing because Sting so professional with the finish, Angle looked really worried and almost broke character when hit Sting but Borden is a monster lol.
@Etarded Molerat How about you actually watch 10 matches from her and make up a logical decision instead of saying "there's not enough good things about her to make a top 10"?
@@danjackson1016 10 ACTUALLY good female wrestlers in TNA around that time circa 2006 - 2008 in no order: 1 - Gail Kim 2 - Awesome Kong 3 - Angelina Love 4 - Velvet Sky 5 - Jackie Moore 6 - ODB 7 - Roxxi 8 - Taylor Wilde 9 - Riasha Saeed (AKA Cheerleader Melissa/Alissa Flash) 10 - Traci Brooks Sure, TNA didn't have a stacked female roster full of talented wrestlers but most were willing to improve and it did show when they wrestled.
@Etarded Molerat I've already said what I've had to say and you've basically deflected my argument with silly insults. Now, you may think Gail was "mediocre at best" and that is your opinion but I absolutely disagree. She did more to elevate a women's division during that time than WWE did and she is regarded as one of TNA's best female wrestlers ever, something that I agree with alongside most of TNA's fanbase. With that being said, I won't argue with you any further.
@@RC99_Productions ok the fact that you put the beautiful people on their is insane. They were awful wrestlers. We both know why they were on tv. 8 and 9 I'll grant you they are both good. The rest aren't good. Sorry to burst your bubble but AEWs women's division is far beyond what TNAs ever was and it's still not good.
@The Chainsaw He was 47 when he debuted with TNA. Did you expect him to outwork AJ? He was there to add star value and put over younger talent just like Jericho is doing for AEW. He wasn't meant to be a full time main eventer. He received plenty of bumps with WCW and the major knee surgeries prove it. Luckily he had better luck than Nash and recovered from his surgeries virtually 100%.
19:42, Yeah he blocks the bat, with his frigging forehead! Massive props to Sting tho, taking a shoot baseball bat to the face, basically no selling it AND finishing the match, the man isn't called the Icon for nothing!
Honestly tna sting is stings best run since the heyday of Surfer sting(1990-1993l. He was clean and sober in good physical shape, mentally in a better olace than he was in Late WCW(where he was dealing with drinking issues and a messy divorce) and had great opponents like AJ and Angle to work with.
yeah it's a shame by the time he became the crow character his knees were f*cked, he lost the athleticism that made him amazing to watch in the ring and of course he had the personal problems. he wasn't ever a great wrestler but losing that athleticism really hurt his in ring work. by the time he got to TNA his whole time there just so much crowd brawling and interference spots to get by. I wish we could of seen crow sting with surfer stings athleticism.
Sting had a late prime in TNA, was great to watch, him being in TNA introduced me to him. Can't imagine if he just stayed retired after WCW. Good thing he didn't.
Sting's falling dazed into Steiner's crotch at 4:18 wasn't the first time he did that spot. I remember him doing that against Scott Hall at Uncensored 1998
i think he did it to Hogan too at starrcade 97. I remember starrcade 97 he was doing crotch chops at Hogan I was so confused as a kid sting was portraying a dark brooding antihero the entire build up to the match then he's doing crotch chops and comedy spots like that. I mean it's funny but idk. imagine the undertaker doing crotch chops and falling head first into kane's crotch in their epic match at wrestlemania 20 lol
You could count the number of good Sting matches in WCW after 1996 on one hand. His heart wasn't in it anymore. He wound the clock back when he showed up in TNA in 2006 though. He was in amazing shape and having good matches on the regular. Those matches with Joe and Angle are some of his career best.
Sting has had some great matches in TNA. But we can be sure that his Last Rites match against Abyss and his Victory Road against Jeff Hardy are not two of them.
@@jeremywilliams5141 jeff was to blame but also whoever was running the show. how did they not notice until literally he was walking out to the ring? you'd think someone would be checking or seeing him throughout the day and catch it early.
Stings loyalty and dedication to wrestling makes him such a likely person. Along with his story of beating drug addiction makes him a true motion, tellingly it is possible to better ourselves no matter how hard it might be.
Ahhhh yes Abyss, the love child of Old-school Kane and Mankind, that neither parent wanted, so he got sent to TNA with a backstory composed of unused and recycled mick foley and glen jacobs storylines. Beautiful.
Abyss was at his best from 04-06. I love those James Mitchell promo's in the back with Abyss being all menacing in the background. The big idiot bumped his ass off in matches for AJ Styles and Christian Cage. I didn't care for most of what he was doing after 2007 though.
It's not to far to imagine that Sting was stronger then Abyss. Sting was a bodybuilder prior to becoming a professional wrestler and honestly Abyss out side of his costume doesn't look like he does much weight lifting.
He was known as WCW's franchise player and that included his fiery babyface promos as well as his look and his matches. It's only dirtsheet fanboy weirdos who have set this narrative for years that he couldn't talk. He is one of the greatest babyface talkers of all time.
early sting in WCW had some great promos. he had a lot of fire as a babyface. it was just weird for him to do that as the crow character you know? it took him a while to adjust but by the time he did WCW was dead. his promo on the final nitro was really good.
Pokemon Gen 1er: “Damn! I got five good Pokémon that all have the best moves. There’s no way I’m going to use a HM on any of my guys.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO You need to watch more AEW my brother I think you WOULD LOVE IT and NOT SHOVE IT! AW MAN!
I’m never mad about his Samoan drop rants but the fact he played a clip of someone doing a Death Valley driver when showing clips of Samoan drops kills me
Best thing about all these videos is you dont have to be watching to follow along. I'm a painter so its what I like listening to when I work. Keep em coming ! From your #1 Fan in Florida!
I grew up during the Monday night wars/Attitude era but I didn’t fully appreciate Sting till his TNA run…this vid was great! And a great concept aswell
Sting vs Hogan ended up being a great spectacle match. For the state Hogan was in, he performed well and pulled out enough heel moves to keep the match feeling fresh. Sting has always been over, and him abusing Hogan's back to get the win made perfect sense. Good psychology since Hogan often speaks about his back issues publicly and occasionally on the show. The post match beat down was a thing of beauty though. It's like somebody opened a can of crazy fan noise soda. Definitely the top moment of Hogan's TNA run. No question about that.
One thing about sting and angle as far as the established guys went in TNA, they didn't take days off those 2 gave their best every time, that should be respected because they could've easily coasted.
I think this is a solid list and really shows how great Sting is and plenty left in the take after the wcw buyout. Sting vs Kurt Angle were easily some of the best matches of both men's respective careers.
Damn between the knees to the gut off the top rope and the bat going through the block and smashing his facein the angle match ol sting took a fucking beating lol
What is sad is only around 2000 people saw one of the greatest matches between sting and flair. It happened in a house show in San angelo Texas in the 80s. Sting and flair went at it for 30ish min. Sting won the title from flair and walked through the crowd. After Sting was walking off flair put his foot on the rope. The ref turned around and pointed at it and rang the bell amd counted Sting out while he was in the locker room. Still the match was amazing.
The reason he didn't cover after the spiral tap was cause Kurt missed his sign to run down. Simple as that. Also Sting "blocks" it from hitting his brain by stopping it with his skull.
"Sting" No selling for them, you're the one punch man. Sitting in the rafters while you make your plans. Rappelling to the ring with a bat in hand It's the icon Big man. Sting. Fell asleep one night while wrestling on the road. Then Wake up to the light on the tvs "the crow". Get a new idea "they ain't seem this before", blondies going badass, threw the bleach out the door. A little stolen gimmick and a want to perform and then he steps into the Centre takes the world in his storm. "A true force of nature" he's a man in his form in his grease paint baby yeah an icon is born.
Out of all the superhero characters in wrestling… the select few who can take a lot of punishment and then “hulk up” and win the match… Hogan, Warrior, Goldberg and Taker… Sting and Taker are the best workers amongst the bunch. Goldberg is the absolute worst.
I’m from the old school becoming a wrestling fan in 1985/86 so I’ll always be loyal to the young Surfer Sting. Super babyface, crazy over and his feud with Vader is one of my all time faves in wrestling. Especially the Superbrawl III strap match they had
The match at the beginning was the first match I watched from TNA when I was younger and after that I was hooked but now it doesn’t feel the same no more
16:18 I'M F*CKIN DYING OVER HERE 🤣🤣🤣 He said Perk Angle started crawling to the ropes looking like a crack head begging for one more rock!!Bahahaha!!! 🤣😂🤣 Poor Kurt tho man, he looked rough around this time period for sure.. Those Comments were still hilarious as hell tho cause they were kind of true! 😂
Honestly, TNA as far as Sting in the black and white look. I think Sting in 99-01 WCW was great, where he actually spoke and didn't just brood all the time. TNA took that and ran with it. Such an under-rated guy imo
You know Hawk every time you say perc angle, I think of when him and abyss are fighting and he throws abyss through a wall under the stage. but the thing people don't talk about is that while Don West and Mike are talking saying we don't know where they are about a minute later you see angle get thrown out one of the same walls through the other side
I wish you did cover the last rites match…I would love to know exactly how injured Sting was…did he get glass stuck in the wound, was the wound all to the eye or the area around the eye…that kind of thing….
Let me know if you think this would be a good series for a wrestlers top 10 matches. Or maybe even top 10 bad matches!
I like and to start with Latino Wrestlers you could do Dr Wagner Jr until he lost his hair to Blue Demon Jr.
Still where the Hawk flies we follow

Sting's falling dazed into Steiner's crotch at 4:18 wasn't the first time he did that spot. I remember him doing that against Scott Hall at Uncensored 1998
It's basically a parody of Ric Flairs dazed falling spot.
He's done that spot vs Rick Rude in 94 as well

Shawn did that move against hhh at his comeback match too

You can tell he was trying really hard to stay positive with the "Young Sting" and "Young Steve Borden" 🤣
19:41 He sure blocks that bat... WITH HIS FACE
So I slowed it down to .25X around this point. @Markyd123 voice just about made me die laughing
Sting is the kind of guy that proves that age is really just a number
Christian Cage would be an awesome top 10 matches, especially with his recent impact title win

Damn between the knees to the gut off the top rope and the bat going through the block and smashing his facein the angle match ol sting took a fucking beating lol
What is sad is only around 2000 people saw one of the greatest matches between sting and flair. It happened in a house show in San angelo Texas in the 80s. Sting and flair went at it for 30ish min.

The ref turned around and pointed at it and rang the bell amd counted Sting out while he was in the locker room. Still the match was amazing.
Sting vs Angle is TNA version of Sting vs Ric Flair in wcw from mid 80s to mid 90s. Always gonna draw and always gonna get 5 stars

Honestly, TNA as far as Sting in the black and white look.
I think Sting in 99-01 WCW was great, where he actually spoke and didn't just brood all the time. TNA took that and ran with it.
Such an under-rated guy imo
That's a great question tbh I have to get back to you on that one
I liked TNA since I lived this period lol.
WCW.
I dare you to find the top 10 Velvet Sky matches.
I can’t actually think of any they were all the same match?
You gotta do miro for HOR or thunder rosa
At first I was like where tf is his WCW matches? Then I realized Sting and The Icon Sting aren’t the same thing
Alright markyyyyy another brick to head lets go!
You know Hawk every time you say perc angle, I think of when him and abyss are fighting and he throws abyss through a wall under the stage. but the thing people don't talk about is that while Don West and Mike are talking saying we don't know where they are about a minute later you see angle get thrown out one of the same walls through the other side
Really enjoyed this vid hawk ☝🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
2:40 slapnuts moment
Keep taking the sponsorships lad
I wish you did cover the last rites match…I would love to know exactly how injured Sting was…did he get glass stuck in the wound, was the wound all to the eye or the area around the eye…that kind of thing….
pretty sure the angle slam is a modified Samoan drop
Nah he spins around a bit 😂
A.J. Styles doesn't wrestle the same way anymore. That was one thing that has upset me with his WWE times. He has really Changed his style
Alreadyknow the answer. All his good matches were pre Crow-Sting. Except the Robocop stuff.
That 1rst match felt like we were in the pandemic era
So, top 10 Anarquia matches next?😅
