Most Iconic look? Um, ok. I'll buy one though. Absolutely. With the exception of a God awful Starrcade match with Hogan. All of Sting's memorable career moments came in his surfer look. All but I think 2 Titles wins, one of which is forgettable and the other as I said was god awful, were as Surfer Sting. His US Title reigns. Feuds with Flair, Muta, Koloff and Luger were as Surfer Sting as well as his feud with Vader. People seem to mix up "recent" with "iconic" So you're saying Sting did nothing memorable after he dropped the surfer look? All moments? Sting is one of the very few who have multiple iconic gimmicks. Undertaker has the deadman, the biker, and the ministry look. All three could be iconic depending on when you watched wrestling (or started watching). Hollywood Hogan and Real American Hulk Hogan are both iconic. You can say Real American Hulk was bigger because of his title runs and WM moments, but both are big parts of wrestling history. Surfer Sting and Crow Sting were both iconic. Crow Sting was Sting's answer to the attitude era. He changed, like Hogan, because the cartoonish superheroes were going out of style, and they needed to rebrand themselves, and both did it successfully. Both looks should be represented just as we got Diesel and Kevin Nash, and we should get Razor and Hall. As the cartoon era came to end it was change or die, and these guys did it. Sting adapted his persona like Hogan. TWO iconic looks makes you legendary.

i think it's likely, but the WWE is probably holding off on announcing it a little while for the whole Warrior thing to "die down" when one of the biggest legends in the history of the sport dies 3 days after getting inducted into the HOF, and less than 24 hours after cutting a promo in the ring... probably don't want to blast the fanbase with "STING HAS SIGNED YAAAAYYY!!!!!" Probably not good to announce the signing of a guy who resembles warrior in many ways just days after Warrior died. In your mind he does, but he hasn't resembled the Warrior in over 15 years. He more resembles a face-painted Undertaker, which is why so many want to see them have a match. If he comes to WWE, he'll likely look more Crow than Surfer.

I love how every time someone rejoins or signs with the WWE, a tread is made. All excited. I hope they make figures. Hulk Hogan just resigned with WWE. Ya think they'll make figures? I hope so. Sting signed, maybe, kind of, he will, maybe TNA will just let WWE make them figures anyway. Every time. I am sure if Sting signs with WWE, we will be bombarded with Sting merchandise. Like they do with everyone. Batista, RVD, Hogan (a lack of a Mattel figure for him is a little surprising though, I will admit that), there will figures, so many overpriced figures...or they'll just keep mass producing CM Punk ones. Which ever comes first. But yes, Sting figures. So exciting.

STING himself said , "My new favorite number is 31". He said it at Wrestlecon the day of WrestleMania 30. Do you think he is referring to Baskin Robbins' 31 flavors or Wrestlemania 31? hahaha I love this......he could be getting his own "Stinger Splash" flavor

I disagree, that is all.

Ok I haven't been on FB in ages. Thanks. Now lets get ...
1. A RSC exclusive GAB '90 Sting (or a War Games Sting from the same year) I will buy 3 or 4 of either.
2. A TRU boxed set like the Rey one.
3. As many Elite Surfer and Crow Stings as possible

This was the post
#WCW legend Sting has signed a deal with the #WWE! We know a dream match for many would be Undertaker vs Sting...with the end of #TheStreak at this past #WrestleMania this match seems unlikely...but you never know.
Who else would you want to see face sting?

Agreed - and if they hold off and do it right they can touch on the link they share as the blade runners etc.

We probably wont see a mattel Sting until 2015. I only really want two Sting mattel figures. A surfer Sting and a crowman Sting. Maybe a red wolfpac as well.

Crow Sting with baseball bat and CLOTH trench coat ( EG Taker) Surfer Sting, Galoob attire, WCW World Title nWo Wolfpack Sting All Elite, thanks in advance Mattel! This sounds perfect. I'd also like a circa 1996 Sting, when his hair was starting to grow out a bit and wa sblack but still in his surfer attire.
