 | | With the more experienced Eddie Gilbert (a talented second-generation wrestler who had begun his career at the age of just sixteen) handling the majority of the interviews and serving as Sting's mentor inside of the ring, the young, somewhat limited muscleman was able to develop his wrestling skills without being rushed. |
 | | Under the guidance of the sinister Gary Hart, the mysterious yet charismatic Muta (pictured), with his incredible never-before-seen moves (such as the Moonsault) and an impressive, unique ring style was the perfect opponent for Sting at the time, and their intense war was one of most memorable feuds of the late-eighties. |
 | | However, after doing so well in laying the foundation for their epic meeting at Starrcade (which resulted in one of the highest buy-rates ever for a WCW pay-per-view), the confusing ending of the match that was concocted by WCW's creative team actually took a great deal of the steam out of Sting's long-awaited victory. |
