Was the plan always for them to do what they ended up doing with Sting, or did they stumble into that angle as well?
Obviously, I don't know how they envisioned it at the start, but if WCW was going to turn Hogan the way they did, they had to figure Sting would be the main babyface rival for "Hollywood."
And as far as the whole "Crow" persona, I've read that Sting knew at the time that his neon beach boy gimmick was right up on its expiration date, and he would have to change things up. I think he's credited Scott Hall with helping him come up with the darker character that became such a success.
