WCW/nWo Nitro, June 1st 1998: Sting joins the Wolfpac

[sap92]

i hate tony he is an idiot

[2uneek]

2:03 wtf why was he grabbing his hair lol

[DocCool94]

I have a sick idea The Four Horsemen vs The Hart Foundation vs nWo (Hollywood) vs nWo (Wolfpack) vs DOA vs DX

[UniversalPHAZE]

Lex luger = fruitcake

[someloser190]

Fake sting was funny

[meakamausos]

fuck yeah! wolfpack all day!

[IHATEROCKNMETAL]

The days of gang warfare in pro wrestling. While the WWF had Nation vs. DOA vs. Los Boricuas and Hart Foundation vs. DX WCW had nWo Hollywood vs. nWo Wolfpack. The whole nWo warfare reminds me of Crips vs. Bloods with both battling for colors lol.

[gannon1op]

man listen to that crowd!! neither WWE or TNA can ever get such a loud ovation!

[2reelJordan]

it wouldve been interested to see the real sting in the regular nwo

[Joobs0917]

:36 The Giants celebration dance. lol!

[certifiedloco]

.52 look at Hogan celebrate

[Milibrat98]

Wow WCW was crazy! Did you see dat bodyslam from the Stinger? Hey, that was the Big Show he lifted like that! Wish I saw this live!

[MikeJames6]

Giant getting kicked out of nWo then rejoining a year or so later made absolutely no sense.

[FranchiseRockets]

@MikeJames6 only reason why he went back to the nwo black and white was because he wanted to get revenge on nash injurying his neck from the powerbomb. so yeah it makes sense.

[pierce0038]

Classic shit

[DocGoose1980]

I miss WCW!

[20GRED]

I MISS NWO WOLF PACK WCW

[Ahmad6338]

1:01 - 1:14 sting fails ripping the shirt off LOL

[TJTheGr8t]

I'm laughing at fake Sting. I had forgotten that they had dragged that whole bit out THAT long. I thought it had actually ended in 97.

[IDRINKLOTSOFBEER]

Curt henning was in the wolfpac

[D8XL]

Damn...Sting was in Beast mode...he lifted Giant pretty effortlessly.

[LucaToni101]

at 3:44 curt hennig failed lol

[MacDaddyj20]

i love sting he is my altime favorite

[jkenney2]

Damn! I mean "mistakes."

[jkenney2]

mistales that the WCW made.

[jkenney2]

This plus a rookie's (Goldbserg's) winning streak plus the finger tap were three fatal mistkest

[Errorman0001]

how the hell he lifted show???

[BigTon20]

if Rey Myseterio would had joined NWO Wolfpack, this group would be even better , espically with a good cruiserweight dude. Rey was a great wrestler espically at his size. he would been cool in red and black.

[ilikethecoke]

Sting: (trying to rip shirt from top) How does Hogan do this?!

[TheMrbignich128]

@pglove69 i think that's eric watts. not sure tho.

[AvireXUS]

One of the best moments of wrestling history was made right here. if not, top 5.

Everyone who watched wrestling knew damn well they wanted sting to have some sort of affiliation with the nwo...even with his "dark" like outcast character fits perfect.  Yep this vid is full of win.

[kmcroomsfuneralhome]

RIP MR PERFECT,MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE

[Opiatist]

@kmcroomsfuneralhome AND CRUSH ( BRIAN ADAMS )

[kmcroomsfuneralhome]

OMG I MIS REAL TV LIKE THIS

[bigdaddy2106]

@unothename12 you do make a good point, however, just because the nwo black and white had a bigger number it doesn't necessarily mean they were more powerful. the wolfpac had some well-respected, legendary talented wrestlers. Nash, Sting, Luger and the Macho Man all make an incredible team by themselves. But that doesn't make them the most powerful either. It's a very debatable subject, but in the end, the nWo PERIOD - Hollywood or Wolfpac, were both very very powerful in their own ways.

[OutSlderz]

lol at nash at the end

[TheTamtam76]

bodyslams giant couldnt rip a t shirt thats classic

[pglove69]

2:02-2:05 wtf? Y he pulling "the giants"hair? Who is that guy N E ways?

[LucaToni101]

@pglove69 it was brian adams he was known as crush in the wwf and he was pulling on his hair to hold him back

[Tranman69]

i cried when this happened...best moment ever

[TheGamerRejects]

Sting is always a face it seems

[5tatQuo]

Lift up The Giant and slam him on the mat? No problem.

Rip apart the shirt I'm wearing? No prob...hold on, wait just a sec. I got this! I got th...damn piece of shi...There! No problem

[youngTaharka]

if u didnt have a nwo shirt back in the day u were a LOSER!

[LOMTG900]

Sting reminds me of Troy Polamalu 

[mesolovely1]

and were out of ti..............

[Mike1981j]

why the hell was sting wearing mechanix gloves =\

[BloodyFingerz]

why dont i see scott hall in any of this? and why are there 2 stings?

[DougMayhem]

@BloodyFingerz Pretty sure this was during one of Hall's drinking binge phases, where he was suspended and ordered to sober up. Happened like three times in WCW. As far as two Stings, NWO came up with their own Sting in I think '96. Just an average jobber, dressed as Sting to fool the audience one time. They realized the gimmick had legs, and kept it going for quite some time. He wrestling Japan alot with the NWO faction there. He was actually not bad. Not that Sting had/has any difficult moves.

[StInG268]

@BloodyFingerz The NWO had been using a fake sting in I believe 96 and everyone felt he had turned on wcw but then he cleared his name yet felt betrayed so left then in like 97 started showing up in rafters in the black and white look and fueded with NWO then they brought back the fake Sting this time with the new look too confuse people again and then eventually when Wolfpac had formed as seen here Sting joined them. Which is why you see two Stings in this vid.

As for Scott Hall...I don't know

[WCW4fuckingeva]

love WCW fuck vince

[TheRottweiler]

wtf sting bodyslamed big show like nothing :O

[MrGravewalker]

What the fuck was up with that dance Nash was doing?

[Infiniti359]

@MrGravewalker Where were you back in the day? 0_o

[MrGravewalker]

@Infiniti359

Doing better things, by the looks of it.

[OgnarPliskin]

Hogan disliked this.

[shamankingz1]

one guy is wearing black and white

[84slaughter]

Curt Hennig Was Disrespected By WCW, He Should Have Done So Much More

[adigovora]

@84slaughter Relly?What did WWF better for him?

[84slaughter]

@adigovora What In The WWF Perfect Was Great, WWE Started Out Ok But Treated Him Like WCW

[faaback]

i forgot how konnan joined, any video?

[manas221286]

Totally left Henning high and dry at 3:44

[Gsand8236]

@manas221286 he didn't leave him hanging @ 2:22 R.I.P. Curt Henning

[RavenMichaels]

lol @ how happy Big Show/Giant is when Sting has on the black and white nWo shirt...

[mlthomp1981]

I like Sting, but the best part of this was when he wasn't able to rip the shirt off.. Gotta have one of Hulk's "cheating" shirts that's pre-ripped lol.

[mmmikeyxx]

One of the best moments of Nitro

[Jacinto93077]

I saw this live when happen.Damn,has it been that long already?Geez,time goes way too fast,blah.



[videozfann]

LOL! i remember this!

[BrianLG100]

Yeahh WOLFPAC!

[westsideAUKILANI]

WOLFPACK FO LIFE

[xaer0knight]

@westsideAUKILANI WCW FOR LIFE!!

[Aguzman0077]

i hated that his whole revamped character was rooted in hatred of the NWO and then he joins, along with Macho and Luger, overkill

[MrGiantkiller666]

@nwoclassics thank u for posting these videos, this was wrestling for me, not this shit they have today.

[LosAngeles822]

LOL. Konnan slapped Sting's ass a couple times.

[DemonSuplexMachine]

@LosAngeles822 he wanted to rub some "oil of olay" on it lol.

[rocket83cs]

On the Hangover II poster that just came out it says "The Wolfpack is Back". I was marking out.

[glowsticksgonewild]

i still have my two NWO wolfpac t-shirt to this very day and it has writing on the back that say's bad has arrived and it's here to stay and the other say's no mercy

[PhenomenalWun77]

This DID make sense. Sting was never dark just for the sake of it. In 96 and 97, he felt betrayed and thought it was the best way to take down Hogan.

Hogan stole the belt back in April 98. Wolfpac was then formed for nWo guys who saw the error in his ways. Luger joined that cause. Sting chose to do the same and in the process, forgave his two partners the night the chaos all started. Whereas he had almost no ties to Goldberg and DDP.

Also he had started talking again months before this.

[rocket83cs]

@PhenomenalWun77 I FULLY AGREE. Sting in the Wolfpac made sense. People seem to forget that his silent, cold character was the exception, not the rule. He was loud and crazy at every other point in his career.

What didn't make sense was Starrcade 1998 and everything afterwards.

[McSomething15]

@PhenomenalWun77

Not really. He joined up with the two people (Nash and Macho) that directly screwed him out of the title not long before. Something which Hogan had nothing to do with. They all then later simply joined right back up with Hogan anyway. The Wolfpac should've remained tweeners, and Sting should've been of the position that as long as they stayed out of his way, he'd let them be.

[RMilvae]

Makes no sense!!!

[Damolisher]

And then what do they do? Have Hennig turn heel and join nWo Hollywood at the next PPV. *Facepalm*

[ontheairfan]

the roof was about to get blown off,sting was the best thing going in wcw

[cctitansfan]

nwo wolfpac for the win

[MrMobsterking]

This was a Brilliant Moment...

[cutejoshie]

lol at nWo Sting.

[lawtna]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
