Twitter: @Inside_TheRopesIn a career spanning 30 years, Steve Borden became a pivotal part of WCW during the late 1980’s and first half of the 1990’s as Sting, before reinvigorating his character to become the iconic ‘crow’ Sting character that helped make the Monday Night Wars so exciting. He connected to generations of wrestling fans like few could with his exciting style and captivating character. Now, for the first time in his career, he is coming to the UK to travel through the country telling stories and answering your questions.
The Franchise of WCW was hugely successful in the UK when he would tour here as part of WCW and later when he would return and headline shows with TNA. In the US, he became a pop culture icon as he fronted a national commercial for Sprite and even had his own credit card during the late 1990’s.
The Stinger has been to the UK before but this will be the first and probably only time that fans will be able to get their photo taken with him IN FACEPAINT. Sting wants to give his UK fans the full experience so they can get a picture with The Icon looking like he’s on his way to the ring to do battle with villains like the nWo.
Earlier this year, Sting was one of the headline acts of WrestleMania in front of over 70,000 fans in San Jose, CA. Just 6 months after his epic bout with Triple H, He’ll be answering questions, telling stories and breaking his silence on what led to him finally signing and stepping into a ring with WWE.
