New Hot Fed
Championship Contender
That's probably the most original idea I've seen in this thread so far. And it'd be a nice way of not doing the same things he's already done. Plus, I really liked heel Sting in 2010 when he dressed as himself in the crowd and nailed RVD with a steel chair high-five to the faceThat beatdown on RVD proved Sting can be an effective dark heel. Plus, the whole paint thing is a little on the cartoonish side anyway.
I got the idea with that style when I saw him the following Nitro on the PPV after his heel turn in 99 when he lost his title to Goldberg. He was mad at commish JJ Dillon and he came to the ring in black jeans, black t-shirt, pulled back black hair and shades. He looked so freakin badass. Let him pull a heel turn at BFG, like you said start hitting Hogan with a bat with no mercy. Hogan can't wrestle anyway, that would be short and sweet and you could have Abyss come saving Hogan. Then you have a match Abyss-Sting.
Following BFG, new battle lines are drawn, Sting could be the big heavy and Roode could enter a feud with him with Sting putting him over over a few months. (and Bully Ray could form a new group with Hogan being taken out)
