2: Sting
For those who grew up during the Monday Night Wars, Sting was the man; descending from the skies and taking out the nWo with a baseball bat. So much so, that in today’s wrestling world, he has gained near legendary status. Seth Rollins too is a huge fan of ‘The Icon’ and even dressed up as Sting for Halloween. One of the things that Sting wanted to do, before he ended his career, was to have one final match for the WWE Championship.
The two of them met last year, at Night of Champions, and even at his age, Sting, had a fantastic match with Rollins. The crowd was chanting ‘you still got it’ when Sting dove off the top rope on to Rollins. And then disaster struck. After two buckle bombs Sting just hit the ropes and collapsed. The crowd looked on, shocked. Sting managed to get up and finish the match but wrestling fans knew something was amiss.
Sting admitted later that it was entirely his fault, and put Rollins over as the best wrestler he’s ever been in the ring with. Big praise coming from a man who faced’s Ric Flair, Vader, Kurt Angle and Triple H. But, Sting isn't the only supernatural character he would injure.
