Everyone knows Sting as "Mr. WCW", so what exactly was he doing in New Japan Pro Wrestling back in the early 1990s? Well, the interesting thing is that WCW actually had a collaboration agreement with NJPW back then and The Stinger was very much a star attraction in the Far East.

Between 1991 and 1996, he competed in numerous matches under the New Japan Pro Wrestling banner including some high-profile matches in the legendary Tokyo Dome. It's safe to say that this Japanese education played its part in the success of The Icon.
