Did a top 100 WCW poll and these were the Sting matches that made my list:

Ric Flair & Sting vs Great Muta/Dick Slater, Clash Of The Champions VIII 9/12/89
Sting vs Vader, Vacant International Heavyweight Title, Slamboree 5/22/94
Sting vs Vader, WCW Heavyweight Championship, Great American Bash 7/12/92
Ric Flair vs Sting, NWA Heavyweight Championship, Great American Bash 7/7/90
Sting vs Vader, King Of Cable Finals, Starrcade 12/28/92
Sting vs Cactus Jack, Falls Count Anywhere, Beach Blast 6/20/92
Rick Rude/Arn Anderson/Bobby Eaton/Larry Zbyszko vs Ricky Steamboat/Sting/Barry Windham/Dustin Rhodes, 2/22/92
Flair/Windham/Sid Vicious/Zbyszko vs Sting/Pillman/The Steiners, WAR GAMES XVIII, Wrestlewar 2/24/91
Lord Steven Regal vs Sting, Great American Bash 6/16/96
Sting vs Vader, Leather Strap Match, Superbrawl III 2/12/93
Sting/Koloff/Rhodes/Steamboat/Windham vs Anderson/Eaton/Zbyszko/Austin/Rude, WAR GAMES XXIII, Wrestlewar 5/17/92

Sting/Vader Superbrawl III, War Games 91 & 92, Sting/Regal GAB '96, the 2/22 8 man and Sting/Cactus Jack Beach Blast '92 are the peak of those imo.

The lack of THE TOTAL PACKAGE is disturbing.

Bolded ones are ones I know for sure are on Youtube/Dailymotion. Might want to search for yourself on the ones in the middle of the list which aren't bolded since they escaped my memory and a couple might be on one of the stream sites.

Windham/Murdoch 7/11/87 is in Seabs' requests page he did the other week in the Media Requests section. Try the last two pages.

Hope this helps.

Not exactly well versed in those territories, dabbled here and there, but one of the best AWA matches I've ever seen was Curt Hennig vs. Nick Bockwinkel for the World Title on 11/15/1986. **** 1/2 classic. For Memphis, Lawler vs. Savage in a Cage match springs to mind.

[GOD of CUNT]

The Sting/Vader strap match is like a top 5 match in WCW history. Cal is a dirty fucking limey and sucks donkey lung so naturally he doesn't like it.

5. Sting v Vader (SuperBrawl, 2/21/93)
7. Arn Anderson, Rick Rude, Larry Zbyszko & Bobby Eaton v Sting, Ricky Steamboat, Dustin Rhodes & Barry Windham (Saturday Night, 2/22/92)
10. Wargames (WrestleWar, 5/17/92)
22. Sting v Vader (Starrcade, 12/28/92)
23. Sting v Vader (Great American Bash, 7/12/92)
25. Ric Flair & Sting v Dick Slater & Great Muta (Clash of the Champions VIII, 9/12/89)
31. Diamond Dallas Page v Sting (Nitro, 4/26/99)
45. Vader v Sting (Slamboree, 5/22/94)
47. Sting v Cactus Jack (Beach Blast, 6/20/92)
54. Sting v Cactus Jack (Power Hour, 11/16/91)
90. Rick Rude, Arn Anderson & Bobby Eaton v Sting & The Steiner Brothers (Worldwide, 10/3/92)

Everything involving Sting that made my WCW list.

[JoeRulz]

Sting/Flair from COTC is better than any Flair/Steamboat match, and I fucking LOVE those matches.

[GOD of CUNT]

I still liked that Flair/Sting match quite a bit when I last watched it, and I'm at a point right now where I'm so sick of the Flair/Steamboat matches that I have no interest in watching them wrestle each other, but even I wouldn't get behind that.

[ATF]

Top 10 Owen Hart matches?

[Big Z]

Wouldn't go higher that ***1/4 for ANY Sting/Flair match. Thought some were pretty bad too. Most of them were the same sequence of moves repeated over and over and over to fill time.

[The Beast Incarnate]

I'm with CAL on this one, not a huge fan of Flair-Sting in the slightest. Don't get me wrong, I'd have a few of them (by a few I mean like, one or two) at over ***, but definitely not better than the GOAT NWA/WCW series of matches (that and Flair/Windham) ever. It just doesn't compare in the slightest and to me it's like comparing Taker/HBK to Bret/Shawn, the name values are there and the matches are remembered fondly.... but Bret/Shawn just isn't good a ton of the time.

Ric Flair & Sting vs The Great Muta & Dick Slater ? THAT'S MORE MY SPEED BITCHES
