An impostor of Sting aligned to the original nWo. Originally meant to sow dissent between Team WCW at the 1996 Fall Brawl, he would later become the nWo's ~~lackey.~~lackey and a bit of a comedic character.

Added DiffLines:

* BecomingTheMask: It's implied that upon arriving to Japan and making a HeelFaceTurn, he genuinely believed he was the ''real'' Sting. He certainly started acting like an AntiHero, and became a fan favorite among the Japanese fans.

Added DiffLines:

* InUniverseNickname: [[{{Pun}} Stink]], which commentator Larry Zbyszko called him to differentiate the NWO Sting from the actual Sting.

Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.
