Sting: ‘I Nearly Jumped Ship To WWE In The Early 90’s!’, More

Sting appeared on Ric Flair’s WOOOOO! Nation and discussed his career and more. Check out the highlights:

On nearly leaving WCW in the early 1990s: “That was the first time I just about left and went to [WWE]. I hadn’t had any conversations with Vince [McMahon] at all, aside from a NATPE convention once, a few words here and there, and very friendly [and] all good. And when it came time for me to negotiate my contract with [WCW Executive Vice President] Jim Herd and he threw an offer out, and I said, ‘what? What?’ And I’m thinking Road Warrior money and Flair money, and I said, ‘I’m not going to do that.’ And he said, ‘well, what do you think?’ and so I threw a number out there and he just about gagged. And he said, ‘well, I see no precedent for that and Steve Avery, pitcher for the Atlanta Braves, he’s only making $100,000 a year.’ I said, ‘he’s going to make millions coming up here. This is his rookie year.’ And I’m not in my rookie year, by the way. And so, I’m standing firm on what I’m presenting here and he said, ‘well, alright’ and I thought that was it, so I was prepared to, whether Vince would take me or not, I was prepared to leave.”

On who he would like to eventually induct him into the WWE Hall of Fame: “I’ve been asked that question so many times over the years, ‘who would you want to [induct you into WWE Hall of Fame]?’ and I said, ‘Ric would have to be the one.’ I mean, that’s my first choice…I don’t know what’s going to happen for sure, so we’ll just have to wait and see.”

On competing in WWE: “At least I have bragging rights now to say that I did WrestleMania and now I’ve wrestled for the [WWE] world title. I think I’ve done just about everything there is to do and so I feel good that I can look back and say that I actually did something with WWE.”
