Most of the time when a thread is made about someone, especially in a way that focuses on looking back at someone's career. The questions that are asked usually revolve around "What Was Their Best Match" or "What Was Their Best Moment" or something similar.
But in this thread I ask the question, Who is a person's greatest rival? Maybe you base that on a series of matches they had together. Or the amount of matches they had in their careers. Or maybe when these 2 get together, they bring the best out of each other. Or maybe you think 2 guys are rivals because their careers ran parallel to each other or revolved around one another.
In this edition, I ask, who is the Greatest Rival of Sting? His career has spanned 4 different decades. So, there are many guys Sting has embroiled himself in deep, deep feuds with. Guys like Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Kevin Nash, Lex Luger, Kurt Angle, Jeff Jarrett and so many others.
Flair or Luger would be an easy choice I guess. But, I think it was Hogan. After each of them were basically the Face of rival companies in the late 80's and mid 90's. Hogan joined Sting in WCW after leaving the WWF. There was always the buzz about "who was better" and "who would win" and "who was more popular?"
So after Hogan turned Heel, and Sting went AWOL, it seemed like it could possibly happen. But Sting's appearances over the next year and a half were to strictly beat up and foil the plans of Hogan and The NWO.
So, the hype really began years before their match at Starcade 97. The rivalry remained after that match as well, and has continued on to TNA now.
I am sure Flair will get a Hell of a lot of votes, but mine goes to Hogan.
Who is your choice? Do you agree that it is Hulk Hogan? Someone else on the poll, or someone I left out? Thoughts?
