December 12, 201212 yr Author comment_5522383 We get a replay of Hansen/Rich from last week, as they recap that Stan Hansen is suspended. This segues into an interview with Sting, in what appears to be his first live interview since winning the title. The crowd is excited and things look to be off to a good start.
December 22, 201212 yr comment_5523463 Rehash of the Hansen suspension. Meanwhile, Sting hasn't changed just because he's the champion.
January 6, 201312 yr comment_5526343 Sting gives an exciting interview but he really feels directionless and while him saying he hasn't changed is fine, it didn't exactly portray him as the ace of the company.
January 10, 201312 yr comment_5527193 Not good having your new babyface champ already running in place. I think a Hansen feud would have helped him a lot.
February 1, 201312 yr comment_5532274 Clips of Hansen versus Tommy Rich from previous match. Jim Ross interviews new champion Sting who has been busy doing all types of media. He wants us to know he’s the same Stinger. Very brief interview.
January 30, 201510 yr comment_5652253 I don't know how a thirty-second interview in which he says he hasn't changed paints Sting as something other than the top guy in the company or means that he's "running in place". Sure, we all know how things turned out, but taking that interview by itself and projecting WCW's future blunders onto it isn't fair. I'm guessing that Hansen's suspension sets up his return to Japan, as I'm pretty sure that there's a match between him and Misawa at the end of the month that made the set.
May 17, 20169 yr comment_5753146 Good but frustrating promo from Sting. I've always wondered how much of it was booking and how much of it was his own kind of tone deafness or misreading his position and how to convey it or what that leads to Sting very rarely feeling like The Man. It's a combination of both obviously, but I'm just not sure which is the larger part.
January 24, 20178 yr comment_5784968 Wrestling Wrap Up with Jim Ross, and he announces that due to his actions at the end of the match he had with Tommy Rich where he physically assaulted referee Randy Anderson, Stan Hansen has been suspended. We get the closing moments of that match where Hansen is disqualified for throwing Rich over the top rope. He then nails Anderson with a clothesline after the match and kicks him in the head, before clobbering Rich in the head with his cowbell. Nick Patrick is with Jim Ross and says that a lot of things happen between wrestlers, but whenever a wrestler touches a referee he’s gone too far, and as of now Stan Hansen is suspended for 30 days and has been fined $5,000. Hansen comes to join them and he’s not happy. He’s about to punch Patrick when he tells him that if he puts his hands on him he’ll double the fine and suspend him for a year. Hansen all angry starts smashing his cowbell on the floor and says that nobody suspends him!
January 25, 20178 yr comment_5785107 It is Jim Ross’s privilege and pleasure to introduce the new World Heavyweight champion, Sting. He says that all of a sudden newspapers, radio stations, TV are wanting to speak to him all of the time. It’s a bit of a strange feeling, but in his own eyes he’s still the Stinger and is still a regular guy. He is still going to go out there and howl and Hi Five all the little Stingers, he hasn’t changed one bit!
