10 Iconic Wrestling Personalities Even The Haters Love
5. Sting
The man, the myth, the Icon! There are very few wrestling legends in the world who fans are still happy to see. WWE's tendency to bring back the stars of yesteryear has put a sour taste in the mouths of many, as audiences have grown tired of seeing the past interfere with the future. Despite that, the appearance of this legendary WCW megastar at AEW's Winter is Coming caused the industry to utterly erupt, with even the most bitter of fans sharing that excitement.
Steve Borden - the man behind the face paint - also seems to have earned a reputation of respect amongst his peers. There is little to no bad press about the legendary performer, which is not an easy feat in the toxic world of wrestling.
Viewers are always overjoyed to see the figure, which is likely because his appearances are sporadic. While other legends appear and reappear rather consistently, Sting makes just like his WCW run and bides his time, seeming to only strike when he is needed. Thanks to this, he will always be a welcome presence in the world of wrestling.
