After seeing this promo, I have just one question: how did we get from this to mute Sting in just a little under seven years? Surely he had enough left in the tank charismawise that he could have handled a darker character verbally.

 

Back on topic, I didn't notice any stumbles, and it may have been the babyface promo of the year so far in wrestling (though how much that's saying, considering that the other contenders basically aren't existing in this universe, is open to question). The line about throwing darts at Flair's face and the way he answered the question of whether he was going to be the same Sting upon his return are classics. He was ready to be The Man when he came back.

Jim Ross starts by playing some video and recapping Sting’s appearance at Wrestle War, which was his first appearance since after his injury. We return from the footage to see Sting having now joined ‘JR’ and back on World Championship Wrestling. Ross asks how his training is going and what are his days like now? Sting says that he’s doing therapy every day, not just physical therapy, but mental therapy too. He gets up every morning and throws darts at the wall, but Ric Flair’s face is where he is throwing the darts! That’s good therapy mentally for him as it helps him to take out some of his aggression. As far as physical therapy, he’s got to bend the leg, ride a stationary bike, tighten up the quad muscles and slowly but surely, work himself into a groove again. Ross says how Ric Flair has said Sting will never be the same if he comes back, he’ll be a shell of his former self. Sting says that he’s not going to be the same when he comes back… he’s going to be wilder, stronger, faster, madder and ready to get in Ric Flair’s face!

 

Good promo from Sting and he should be a huge babyface come the time he’s able to get back in the ring and face Flair.
