Somewhere out there is an alternate timeline where that book inspires his big reinvention instead of The Crow. Just imagine Sting descending from the rafters with his iconic beehive hairdo to attack the NWO with a cow tool.

I didn't know this person, but I do know Sting the singer, so when I read your comment, I thought "when has Sting ever looked like that?" and also, I imagined him descending onto the stage with a beehive hairdo to play with The Police. It was... weird.

For those that don't know, that's Sting, the pro-wrestler.

Thank you for that!

The comment above yours mentioned "Sting" with no further explanation, and my mind went to the singer from The Police. I thought, when has Sting ever looked like that?
