Why does Tony Khan pay sting to LIE like this? Everyone knows his best days were with the Dingo Warrior, not some puny shrimp child
>>
>>20424932
I love the Stinger but this really is sad
>>
>>20424932
if you say so gramps
>>
>>20424932
when are you grandpas gonna accept that your days weren't he best days in terms of wrestling. Only Stemboat could maybe reach Darby's athleticism.
>>
>>20424946
I do think Darby is underrated, but Sting and Luger is genuinely an iconic team
>>
>>20424932
All that ball washing for no sixy

>>20424932
Nothing wrong with Sting putting over his fren. Those other guys don't need a rub anymore
>>
>>20424932
Yeah fuck all those guys

>>20424932
Did he ever have any significant tag team runs with those guys?

Ok but that's Luger so I don't blame him for saying Darny's better
>>
>>20424970
yes
>>
>>20424932
Probably the longest teammate of his and Darby never turned heel on him. Also Darby taking all the crazy ass bumps helped Sting last a bit longer.
>>
he means his best partner while wearing the black and white makeup
>>
>>20425138
I don't think Darby is contractually obligated to take crazy ass bumps

Based Sting got them seething

Sting honestly kinda ruined his image for AEW, he had the image of being a self-respecting guy who didn't buckle to WWE and told them to fuck off when they botched his retirement and now he's just on all fours dragging his snout along the ground for Tony it's fucking pathetic

>>20424946
Retard
>>
>>20425279
I mean, at least he put a guy over while he was working there. That's more than any of the other old guys that were there did.
>>
>>20425292
Sting didn’t put over a single person in AEW
>>
>Undoubtedly the run where he got paid the most.
>Darby did all the selling so he could just come in, beat his chest and hit his moves.
>Treated like a God on-screen and probably also backstage.
>Went undefeated
>Retired as champion against the opponents he wanted, with his friends and sons by his side.
Yeah it's a real mystery why the Darby run is his favorite one.

His most memorable tag partner was Robocop.

>>20424932
This guy forgot Rick Steiner seeing as they were the UWF tag champs as a part of Hyatt and Hotstuff International back in the day, so his research is lacking.

they tagged as complete newbies, sting was the shits and warrior was even worse than he would go on to be

Is this real? They got him looking like Santa clause out here

Luger is the only one that's even close.
>>
>>20424932
sting's tag run with darby was his retirement run, so of course it would be his favourite, especially after that garbage mania match with h. and none of those other legends were young guys coming up in the business that needed a rub.

Everyone in this thread forgetting that wrestling is a work. grim

He was attached to a cord for that dive btw

I think he also tagged with Bret Hart and Macho Man but I could be wrong

Such a dimeless shitter the autocorrect on this jeet's phone doesn't even recognize that as a real name

This image alone is more DIMES than darby's career.
>>
>>20424932
It's sad, but smarks should shut the fuck up, this is what wrestling has always been like, you hype up whoever you're CURRENTLY working with, obviously Darby would never measure to Flair or Dusty even if he wrestled 200 years, but Sting isn't going to go out there and say:"Darby is a good tag partner, but he is no Ric Flair, I tell you that much", unless he is a heel, which he clearly isn't. And no, I hate trannies and AEW, I'm just explaining wrestling to you subhuman retards.
>>
I wonder what happened I'm too drunk to read this thread, I hope Sting didn't do something bad, I have no less than 6 Sting action figures so it would break my heart if he did or said something really bad
>>
>>20428646
They brought Sting back to deliver a Ted Turner tribute, obviously Tony had to sneak in how great he is for wrestling, and how he is a visionary like Ted through Sting, and Sting also talked about the main event or whatever, I already forgot, but something about his buddy Darby being world champion, and called Darby "the best tag team partner I've ever had", and smarks are angry because he actually tagged with actual wrestling GOATs like Dusty, Flair and Luger during his career.
>>
>>20424932
>Why does Tony Khan pay sting to LIE like this?
It's called "working"
>>
>>20428657
They did a Ted Turner tribute? Shit, did he die...? Oh well *kevin nash in arn anderson cosplay with a neck brace*, goddamn tony kahn is a retard. Do you think captchas will one day be increasingly difficult levels of minesweeper??
>>20428662
huh?

they dont tell him the way to look

>>20428462
Saw his son is doing dark matches now, wonder when he will debut
>>
>>20424932
He never lost a single match with Darby and has over 20 wins with him right? This makes sense to me.
>>
>>20428713
rightfully so. He saw what they did
>>
>>20424932
>>20424952
>>20424971
Luger has and always been a shitter, you retards should just accept the truth instead of wearing your nostalgia googles with the zoom turned up to the max.
He has one good moment in his career and that one exists only because the Hulkster in his boundless generosity was feeling kind that day and didn't bury him further than Vince had in Summerslam.

No, he wasn't.

honestly sting did have a much better run in AEW than he did in WWE, but thats not saying much.

That's not what that anon said at all are you retarded?
>>
>>20430279
My post remains true. Sorry you couldn't handle my pipe bomb.
>>
>>20430369
The post that anon made was literally anti-WWE because he said he respected Sting for telling WWE to fuck off
>>
>>20430381
>The post that anon made was literally anti-WWE
No, it wasn't. Gain reading comprehension.
>>
>>20428468
no shit he did, but he didn't have a better run in aew than he did in fucking nwa or wcw which is kind of the point of the thread you dumb console warring bitch
>>
>>20430395
It looks both anti-WWE and like he doesn't like Sting groveling to AEW too excessively.
But very mild, very adjacent criticism of AEW makes your piss boil so much you immediately perceive it as WWE loyalty, so you're hopeless.
>>
>>20430396
he had a better tag run than he did anywhere else, which is the actual point of the thread, you retarded brown faggot

>>20430403
>REEEEEEEEEEEE AEW REEEEEEEEEE REEEEEEEEEE REEEEEEEEEE YOU'RE A CONSOLE WARRIOR BTW
get a life, fatso
>>
>>20430408
no he didnt lol
the darby team was highly criticized during a lot of it because people felt darby was being wasted as sting's little buddy, just because the retirement was handled deftly and exceptionally doesn't mean you can pretend there wasn't a lot of criticism during the whole run
his best tag partner is luger
>>
>>20430416
>proves the point by perceiving very mild, very adjacent criticism of AEW (not really even AEW, just Sting's phrasing being too overboard) as console warring
Kek, good job proving the point you know fuck all about wrestling, you dichotomized brainlet.

How fucking fragile are piggiEs that every single little thing regarding AEW just kills them. They follow and hang on every word, story, match, clip… legitimately they are more AEW obsessed than actually AEW fans by far.
>>
>>20430219
False. Luger was legitimately good back in 1988 until about 1991 before he left WCW to go into bodybuilding and then had the motorcycle accident. Lex in 1989 was very good and very over. The talk of Luger not being able to work comes from people that only watched him after his motorcycle accident. He slowed down a lot and his work became more limited.
>>
>>20430498
But enough about Darby in the Sting's tag partners competition

>>20430501
>he thinks the average modern fan has any frame of reference
Sting knew this would get a pop because AEW fans are uneducated on the sacred sport.
>>
>>20430500
Sting is a WCW legend who barely spent any time in WWE. He spent more time in TNA. Hell, he has spent more time in AEW too. Why would you assume it's WWE fans that are upset about this? It's WCW fans, dipshit.
>>
>>20430514
because aew fans only frame of reference for any wrestling ever is wwe
they're mostly just jaded former wwe fans, hence why they make a point to show their distaste so consistently

WWE sucks and Darby isn't even a top 3 tag partner for Sting
Not sure what's difficult to grasp about that when the guy tagged with Flair, peak Luger, Kurt, peak BEEG and Kurt.

Nah I watched it, it wasn't his best tag run. It wasn't even close.
Like the other anon said, it was a great retirement but the overall run isn't even close to the dynamic of the Luger run.
You just don't know jack shit about pro wrestling.

Dumb opinion cause the Sting/Luger team was one of the best angles going in 96 WCW before the NWO changed everything. Babyface Sting and heel Luger(With Jimmy Hart) were great.

Not everything is a conspiracy. Sting is allowed to think his run with Darby was his favorite.

No one said he can’t think that. People that he performed for are saying that they do not agree.

This is the opinion of someone that knows nothing of wrestling history.

>>20430878
They don't agree that Darby was his favorite. Do you see how retarded that sounds? Darby is probably way more fun to be around than all of those cokehead/alcoholics.
>>
>>20431315
facts actually
>>
>>20424932
Luger is the only one of those guys that people would remember Sting teaming with. Teaming with Darby probably means more to Sting because he feels like he really made the guy. Darby got both of his finishers, the bat, the zipline gimmick and is making the most of it. Sting and Luger was dimes but they were both about the same age and in the same spot on the card. It was definitely the highlight of Darby's career and the best thing Sting has done in a very long time, not hard to see why he is talking it up.

Also besides Warrior I wouldn't even consider Sting to have had any notable tag partners. I would not call his team with any of those other guys the highlight of either man's career at all and I don't even know how many matches he actually worked with those guys.
>>
How dare Sting put over the only active wrestler from that list
>>
I don't think you guys appreciate how great Darby is

He's like Mick Foley on crack. He'll probably die in the fucking ring or at least get paralyzed.
>>
>>20431504
>Also besides Warrior I wouldn't even consider Sting to have had any notable tag partners.

What the fuck are you talking about? Sting and Luger had a fantastic tag team run and they continued to get back together at various points throughout their careers. Their match against the Steiner Brothers at Superbrawl is often considered to be the best tag team match in WCW history.
>>
>>20431315
>>20431339
Are you two 12 or just retarded? Cokeheads and alcoholics are tons of fun to be around. When they're using, of course.
