Dai Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Was there a Crow-related potential lawsuit that made Sting change his paint from this: Â Â To what he wears now? Always thought this paint and the short hair was a better look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thought this paint and the short hair was a better look.  I think Sting’s paint just gradually transformed from the Crow-like paint above to the more elaborate cheetah-like markings.  Scott Hall gave him the idea for the gimmick. I imagine Real Estate Steve started out with that design and then gradually tweaked it to make it his own.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 19, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted March 19, 2015 Was there a Crow-related potential lawsuit that made Sting change his paint from this: Yes there was. He was forced to change it. And one day in an airport, Sting saw the January 1997 issue of Rolling Stone, and copied Marilyn Mansons design. Â Say what you want about Sting, but this fucker does not mind thieving from someone. Few would go "well I cant use the Crow paint, so I'll just rip-off someone else."

5pints Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 What was the 1pw show where security were keeping a close eye on these people in the crowd wearing masks (I was sat next to them looking bored) thinking they were someone else only for the real people to jump in the ring and run off with the tag titles?

Refused Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Glad Sting changed the facepaint, he looks like a mime in that picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted March 21, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted March 21, 2015 I liked when he first went "free agent" and his facepaint was the same shape as his normal style, except it was white, because he was all in black and white. He was the same Sting in appearance, it was just that he was silent and black and white and kept randomly showing up to lamp people. He let his hair get out of control too. It was too long by Starrcade 97, he looked silly. Â Not as silly as bunny ears Wolfpack Sting, obviously, which coincided with him not really being main event any more. Main eventers don't do bunny ears. Not so much "lost in the mix" as "lost in the myxomatosis". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Pitcos Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I was amazed by The Juicer as a kid, purely based on a photo of him in this book: Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Big Benny HG Posted March 22, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) I too own that book. Bought it in a discount bookshop on Scarborough seafront in about 1992. Probably the most thumbed-through book I've ever owned. Came across it again last summer when I had to rescue it from a pile that my fiancee had brought BACK from the car boot sale unsold without me knowing.  She'd sold my monster trucks book  EDIT: DOUBLE POST Edited March 22, 2015 by Big Benny HG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopper Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Count me in as another owner of said book.  First time I saw Rick Steiner with a thick perm underneath his headgear, Woman in a business suit with those awesome legs up on a table, and Cactus Jack looking badass stood on a pile of tyres in a scrapyard were among my favourite photos in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
