WWE 2K15: 10 Epic Sting Matches That Must Be Included
9. Vs Cactus Jack (Beach Blast 1992)
Sting was the WCW World Champion here, but this Falls Count Anywhere match was non-title. Cactus Jack, who has always been crazy, decided that he would rather beat Sting up than take Sting's title. Of course, this was several years before Mick Foley would become a household name as Mankind, but he was still becoming a very buzz-worthy worker due to his ability to take insane bumps and make his opponents look great in the process. As a Falls Count Anywhere, people knew they would be seeing a brawl, but it was more vicious and more violent than anyone expected it to be, with both men taking some serious bumps that probably should have involved the breaking of bones, including spots on the exposed concrete floor at ringside. Sting had yet to be tested like this in his career, and there were plenty of doubts as to whether or not he could handle something with this type of brutality. Not only did he handle it, he was victorious, introducing the wrestling world to a different side of the Sting persona that nobody knew existed.
