5 Unforgettable Starrcade Matches

#4 Vader vs Sting - Starrcade 1992

Enter c — Sting attempts a backslide versus the mammoth Vader

The semi-final of the 1992 edition of Starrcade was the final of the "King of Cable" tournament pitting former World Champions Vader versus Sting.

In a classic David vs Goliath battle, the larger Vader dominated large portions of the match, but the "Stinger" showed incredible heart to stay in the contest.

Both men exchanged sickeningly stiff blows back and forth which impressively added to the intense realism of the match-up.

Vader showed incredible athleticism for a man his size and splashed Sting off of the ropes. When he attempted it a second time, Sting reversed the splash into a powerslam in an incredibly well-timed move.

With that reversal, Sting secured the upset pin. One of the truly great matches of the 1990s.
