He looks strange there but looks good there and AEW looks like WWE now not wrestler's wise that's not what i mean what i mean is it has the atmosphere like WWE which TNA never did even in it's prime , AEW also has a feel good factor it really could challenge WWE.

Think it really is worth a watch now.

^Let's hope AEW use him way better than WWE ever did I can't believe it is nearly or over 10 years ago when he made the Pipe Bomb promo which I think blew a big hole in people's thoughts of WWE at the time.

He was at his best/peak around what 200lbs?

He is nowhere near sting in world titles

Sting is 2 times NWA world champ, 6 times WCW champ, 4 times TNA world champ,

Christian is 2 times NWA world champ, 1 time TNA world champ, 2 times ECW world champ, 2 times WWE world champ,

They are closer in world singles titles than you think , add all Christian other belts and he has more in total than Sting,

You missed 2 time wcw international world champion which i believe was the big gold belt before it became the main title belt for wcw

In terms of total titles in official companies (Not Indys)
Sting has 24 and chistian has 22

In major world titles
Sting has 14 christian has 7 and thats including wwe's ecw title which lets be honest was lower on the card than the ic title

For got all about that belt mate, it only existed for 1 year in the mid 90s, when the NWA put WCW and NJPW together it was the combined world champ both competed over, thanks for reminding me mate, and it was the NWA big gold belt that Ric owned
,

I think the only time i saw that belt defened was sting vs rick rude at spring stampede 94
Must of had more but cant remember any

I think we need to count all the Indy belts mate as that puts Christian on 27 belts, I guess that's why we saw it different

Its a bit of an unfair comparison then as sting never did indys...
I was only comparing titles from major wrestling companies that did tv and ppvs i dont really see being the champion of an indy company that draws crowds of 50 to 500 people a serious thing

I wouldn't go as far as to say he wasn't pushed he got everything he wanted from WWE 2 MITB wins,World Titles and at one point he was the longest reigning WWE Champion until Lesnar took that away by not wrestling it's just at the end of it it wasn't the greatest couple of years for him and that's why he really fell out of love with the company and wanted out.

Let's face it his rise in WWE was incredible anyway he was just an ECW wrestler then got to the top which none of the ECW wrestler's did.

Yeah i guess you could say guys like RVD and Big Show did to but they was in WWE before WWE's ECW began.

Even in his last year he faced undertaker at wrestlemania and brock lesnar at summerslam. I think him and aew are perfect for each other. He makes them seem legit and has an authenticity/conviction about him. Only problem is the segments either side of him will show the bad side of the company even more now. Hopefully they let him do his thing as he gets it more than most on aew. They definitely have momentum now, with some good signings. Hopefully less of the comedy/amateur acts and silly booking. Show could be real quality
