It had a lot of potential, and it was an interesting time in WCW. There was a lot of pressure for television time. A lot of guys were coming in from the [WWE], and so it was a lot of talent, but not enough air time for everybody to get on television. So there were some good characters then who just didn&#8217;t get a lot of chance to really get a push.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On formation of NWO Sting:<\/b> &#8220;&#8221;I think the major part was [Bischoff] thought that [Sting] and I were similar in size and stature. I that that was part of it, that I could fool them because we looked similar enough. I wasn&#8217;t 6&#8217;9&#8221; or anything like that, so I think it was definitely part of the match-up in size. I was probably a little heavier than [Sting] back then, but it was definitely close enough. Eric came up and told me, hey, this is a big deal. If this gets out, I&#8217;m going to squash it. So even some of the boys didn&#8217;t know what was going on. It was something that he definitely kept guarded, so that it was kind of a shock to everyone when I came out of the limo and attacked Lex Luger.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On who he credits for extending the character:<\/b> &#8220;I don&#8217;t think it was going to be a continuing character. I think Hogan liked it, and he said hey, this is good! We can use this &#8216;bad Sting&#8217; character to cause a lot of havoc and work with the NWO.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On missed opportunity of Sting vs. Sting match:<\/b> &#8220;My character was more popular than Sting in Japan, and I always thought we could have a huge match with the real Sting and the NWO Sting. We could have took the house down in Tokyo, if we would have ever done that match. It was just a missed opportunity, really in the U.S. too. Think about what you could have done. You could have had [us] wrestle each other, but what if somehow we joined up as a tag team, and then you have two Stings? That would have been awesome too. There could have been a lot of scenarios that could&#8217;ve played out. That was something that never got a chance to happen, but I think it would have been cool.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-1223118755\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pancakes and Powerslams Podcast with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":4526,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,7],"tags":[672,216,1158,219],"class_list":["post-12980","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interview_highlights","category-misc_news","tag-eric-bischoff","tag-hulk-hogan","tag-jeff-farmer","tag-sting"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
