Ratings in 98 with Goldberg and the undefeated streak were better than 97 with Sting. It's funny when people lie on ratings when they are posted online for everyone to see
Sting vs Hogan did WCW's best number

No thanks. They missed the boat on this back in 01 by Sting riding out his contract, and missed it a couple years ago when Sting finally did come to the WWE. Taker has been a literal walking corpse for years.

Goldberg at his peak arguably drew better than anyone in modern history that wasn't Austin/Hogan/Rock.

Arguing Sting (or Triple H, for that matter, since the thread swerved that way earlier) ahead of him is honestly dumb stan shyt.

Nobody rode out there contracts
They had seperete contracts worth more than the WCW purchase itself and Vince wasn't gonna pay millions

But they got their Asses kicked by the Austin come up..what Sting built up, the Goldberg storyline kept going a yeae after but it didn't dominate though.

You mean the rise of the OG DX, don't forget who passed the torch, on his accord, to Austin at WM14

Tyson with DX (Kliq North) really pushed play fighting to the mainstream

It didn't matter... they could of went with Taker. Tyson was the attraction in the whole set up.

So the same storyline would've worked with a Saturday morning cartoon character gimmick like Undertakkker instead of HBGOAT when the entire angle was pushing edgy realism (penned by GOATsso)?

Of course it works... Fans buy into Taker over Michaels..they always did. Every year of their career.

If it's meant to be we'll reverse the aging process in the next 15 years or so and have the match at Wrestlemania 50. Along with Brock vs Sid, Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle,

HBK vs AJ Styles and Austin vs Declan McMahon. Triple H might have to work Takeover. The Rock will be busy filming Fast and Furious 22 : Martian Desert, on Mars.
