That was on Nitro wasn't it? From what I remember. Looking at all the shoots over the years. I've come to the conclusion that it wasn't WCW that was crazy but this whole business is loving crazy

Im sure they ran out of time for real and planned on him getting up beating their rear end and Hogan running away down the ramp before time was up.

That was a classic. I used to think what the hell is keeping Sting so loyal to these guys?

Sting in 1997 doesn't even matter. After getting 15 months off from Fall Brawl 96 through Starrcade 97 where he didn't appear for 6 months and then made sporadic appearances for 6, then just had to appear for three he asked for more time off from 98-99 and got about 6 months off. Then got more time off in 2000-2001.

I never thought to look it up. I always thought he really got injured. Well......that sucks.

I feel sorry for anybody that watched through the Monday Night Wars and didn't have Picture-In-Picture built into their TV. While I use to watch the first hour of Nitro, all of Raw, then the last hour of the Nitro Replay, I used PIP a lot back then when Nitro went to 3 hours.

I'd just watch the intro to Nitro, then switch between them, decide which match i'd rather see, and stick to that channel and keep switching from time to time to see if I was missing anything. When Raw started winning easily i'd just mainly watch it and maybe switch to Nitro every few minutes but I usually just kept it on USA mostly (Since Nitro was 3 hours I never missed it's start and Nitro endings sucked alot of times tbh).

I think Goldberg's streak should have ended with the big names of the NWO doing a run-in and stomping the poo poo out of Goldberg. Instead of making it a one sided thrashfest, have Goldberg just start rampaging across the entire ring destroying people left and right until someone gets a lucky cattle prod hit or a chair shot from behind, or some other nefarious method to take him to his knees. At that point, have the biggest guys hold him down while everyone else stomps on him and Goldberg is still trying to fight them off, perhaps succeeding one or two times before they finally take him down for good. They'd spent all that time building Goldberg up into this unstoppable monster that I think that kind of defeat would have given him a really good push as well as setting up for a really great feud between Goldberg (as leader of team WCW) vs Kevin Nash and the NWO.

Play the story up where Goldberg just utterly trashes the biggest guys in the NWO with Spear + Jackhammer at random times during the match, but also have the NWO guys come out and ambush Goldberg in his matches, backstage, wherever he is. There are so many places you could take that, it seems incredibly obvious that this is what really should have happened. The streak would have been broken but Goldberg would've come out looking like a total beast as well as a serious contender for the belt, as well as giving the face guys a much needed leader that would have inspired fear in the NWO.

See you have to do all this dumb poo poo just for a dumb streak that doesn't really mean anything. I kinda agree with nash on this one. If all he had was the streak then what was there in the first place? If taking a loss is that bad then there's a problem.
