With STING's retirement pending. 1st time I saw him live was in January of 1989 when he came to Portland and Seattle. He wrestled Ric Flair both nights and the matches were excellent! Here is a pic of Sting at Portland Sports Arena with Flair and Roddy Piper.

To watch #BlackWidow at home for $30 when it's released isn't as steep as it seems. Shit u go on a date to the movies, boom 45 bones just for the tickets. Get a soda and a popcorn, that's easily another $493.95 right there. My estimations spending $30 at home saves u $678.92!

Why was Orndorff so successful against Hogan you ask? His intensity! Despite the SIZE difference. Paul gave off the aura that he COULD beat Hogan, which was not something most of his challengers were able to do. People believed his toughness!
