The 11 faces of Sting

#8 The final Nitro

Ending where it all began -- Sting vs. Flair

In 2001, Vince McMahon finally ended the Monday Night war by buying out his competition. Sting and Flair had both been on the shelf with injuries, but returned for the final Monday Nitro for one last, great contest.

Sting donned his 'crow' makeup for the last time in WCW to bid a fond farewell to the house many say he and Flair built. It was a bittersweet moment in both their careers, and Sting picking his 'crow' makeup meant he believed that was his most iconic look.

But Sting's story doesn't end here... he had another transformation to make.
