WWE: Best of Sting, The (3-Disc)(DVD)
"The Best Of Sting" chronicles Sting's entire career from his Mid-South days as part of the Blade-Runners (with Ultimate Warrior) through his last WCW match vs. Ric Flair on the very last episode of WCW Monday Nitro (3/26/01). The video features more than two dozen matches in total, many never before released on DVD or Blu-ray. This includes a combination of well-known memorable matches, as well as some fairly obscure matches including encounters with Vader, Cactus Jack, Hulk Hogan, and Ric Flair. In addition, packages throughout the title will help tell the story of Sting's career evolution.]]>

Title: Finally, the Stinger has come to DVD...
Review: If you wanted to get technical about it, this is not Steve Borden's (a.k.a. Sting) first venture into the realm of wrestling DVDs. TNA wrestling produced a nice documentary that had some good matches on it--but as I'm sure longtime Sting fans (or wrestling fans in general) will tell you; what we waited years for was a DVD covering his career in the now defunct NWA/WCW--which is where Sting made his legacy and became one of the all-time greats.So--after who knows how many years of clamoring--WWE finally authorized a Sting collection; and how did they do? Well--for the most part--I would say they got it right. It's too bad Sting himself didn't film an all new interview for the docu-style features in between the matches--but the clips that are used are good enough and most of the matches hold up remarkably well.Of course, the big highlight from Disc 1 for me was the Sting/Flair Great American Bash 1990 match for the NWA World Title. Perhaps my all-time favorite of the many Sting/Flair matches--although I would not argue with those people who would go with their time limit draw from the '88 Clash of Champions.Going through the material presented here, I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't delve further into the Sting/Big Van Vader rivalry. Where's Sting vs. Vader from the '92 Great American Bash--I mean the whole match, not just clips. Or how about Sting's feud with Rick Rude?Part of what seems like the fun with these WWE wrestler collections is griping about the matches WWE chose to include--or in this case--not include on the DVDs. A few that jump to my mind--Sting vs. Flair on the old WCW Saturday Night Program that aired in August of 1993. I don't remember the exact date--but I do remember Sting and Flair went to the 40 minute limit again and, of course, delivered a classic match for the NWA World Title.Another World Title Match that I was sure would make a "Best of Sting" DVD would have been the classic that Sting and Diamond Dallas Page had on March 23, 1998. The thing that would've made that match refreshing for this collection is that it was one of the rare Monday Nitro matches that was free of any NWO run-ins and had a clean finish--imagine that. And given WWE's efforts to all but eliminate that Sting/DDP match from youtube, I'm pretty shocked it didn't find its way to DVD.Oh well, maybe it will be included on a future Sting DVD release. If the Undertaker, Bret Hart, Ric Flair and countless other wrestlers can have multiple DVD releases made for them, then certainly a legend like Sting will be afforded the same courtesy.Disc 3 focuses on Sting's evolution from the blonde haired, multi-colored surfer to "the Crow." Perhaps WWE could have delved into this a bit more, as they jump from Sting's debut in the black and white face paint from October 1996 all the way to Starrcade '97.And fans of wrestling know the story behind Starrcade and what an epic fail that match was, so I won't go into it. I'll just say Sting and Hogan from Superbrawl 8 may have been a better match to showcase. Some bonus features of Sting in the rafters or dropping down from the ceiling would have been nice too.It's easy to focus on the negatives and what WWE did or didn't put on this collection--but overall, if you're a longtime Sting fan like me, then I'm sure you'll be satisfied with this DVD. And as I said before, I'm sure there's more to come in the future--including what I hope will be a new Sting documentary feature that will have an interview with Steve Borden himself.But--until that day comes--I will enjoy "The Best of Sting."4 1/2 stars

Title: If you like Sting and Professional Wrestling get this set!
Review: If you're a fan of Sting you will really enjoy this set, I'm glad he got a deal with the WWE and they decided to put together this DVD/Blu Ray set and if you have a Blu Ray player I definitely recommend that you get that version cause it has more matches and content than the DVD version like a lot of these wrestling sets have so you won't get as much on the DVD version so don't get that set unless you don't have a Blu Ray player, there aren't many PPV matches on here but some of those matches are on other sets, most of the matches on this set were TV matches and a lot of them were when Sting was the Surfer type character with short blonde hair when he was young and pretty built and wore different colors and face paint every match but I like this set a lot myself, I do think they will probably come out with more sets later with more matches just like the WWE has done with a lot of wrestlers releasing several sets for each star but that's just what I think, if you like Sting get this set!

Title: One of the greatest collections ever released
Review: When a mens heart is full of desite it burns up, dies and a dark shadow falls over his soul against an army of shadows lies a dark warrior the prevaire of good with a voice and a mission of justice this is... StingThe Best Of Sting is one of the greatest collection of matches ever released, and it is truly a long waited anthology release. From UWF to NWA to WCW, WWE truly opened up their archives for one of the greatest of all time to perform in a wwe ring. From the Blade Runners to The California Surfer to The Crow the set truly gives the history and evolution of Sting

Title: There are lots of great Sting interviews on this Blue-Ray but they are old ...
Review: This is an okay Sting Blue-Ray from the perspective of a WCW fan. There are lots of great Sting interviews on this Blue-Ray but they are old interviews. Sting is not involved with this production which was made in 2014. And also the are not many pay-per-view matches on this Blue-Ray, mainly Nitro and Thunder matches. But besides that this an okay buy. The early material on Sting from the late 80's and early 90's is fantastic. You get great matches with Ric Flair, The Steiner Brothers, a young DDP in 92, and old Arn Anderson at Disney MGM in 96. There's also another great match where Sting and Hulk Hogan tag up against The Bruise Brothers in 94. Lots of cool bonus interviews on this Blue-Ray as well. Again okay buy if you can get it for good price i paid about 17 $$

Title: Great piece of nostalgia
Review: Great piece of nostalgia for any 80-90âs WCW wrestling fan surrounding the matches of sting. Mostly matches and very little documentary. The condition was very good as seller described

Title: Happy i got this DVD for sure.
Review: Very happy with this DVD. You can never have enough Sting. I wish they do more DVDs on him with more earlier matches in his career like The Bladerunners and more in the UWF days. But if you are a fan, then this is a must have. The 3rd disk matches are a little weak in my opinion. But its a great ride through his career. Hope they do another one soon.

Title: GREAT LOOK BACK AT ONE OF THE GREATS !!
Review: A superb anthology for one of the all-time greats of wrestling. The matches included were stellar. Too bad Sting finally caved in '15 and signed on with the horrible WWE. Can't fault him in his late 50s for chasing the "green" ! He should have talked to Goldberg before signing his name !

Review: Not a bad show, just wish there was more of a documentary like other wwe blu rays. Also could have had more older matches but still a food blu ray
