                      STING

Shrouded in mystery and controversy, Sting looms on the fringe of WCW vs. NWO. He has everyone intimidated by his silence. His Allegiance to himself has everyone guessing his next move.
This native of Venice Beach, Calif., has been the "franchise" superstar of  WCW since it's conception. As a major fan-favorite, Sting has been honored on numerous occasions as 'Wrestler of the Year". Matching his immense popularity are many ring championships. Prestigious victories against A-list opponents have garnered three WCW World Heavyweight Titles, WCW U.S. championships, WCW Tag Team belts in addition to inaugural wins in WCW BattleBowl and the European Cup Championship. Sting truly is 100 % WCW. He is their only superstar that has stayed with WCW through thick and thin. All others have come and gone, switching back and forth between federations. Sting truly is the "franchise" the "golden boy" of WCW.

This former collegiate basketball player has carved out two highly successful Main Event Fitness Centers in Atlanta with good friend and co-owner Lex Luger. In his spare time he enjoys riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle, off-road jeeps and playing golf. Sting has starred in his first feature film,"The Real Reason", released in 1997. Perhaps the greatest testimony to Sting's popularity are requests from Make-A-Wish and The Starlight Foundation for his participation granting wishes to critically ill children by visiting them.

Dark, dangerous and ready to do battle, Sting has every WCW fan hoping that he comes back to lead the fight against the NWO.
