Actually came up with the name before The Police's Sting did, and so as a result musician Sting pays wrestler Sting money to use the name? Don't worry though, wrestler Sting only makes musician Sting pay a cent a year for it

I knew this, but I believe it was that Wrestler Sting had the name TRADEMARKED before Singer Sting. I'm not a huge fan of The Police, but I feel like Singer Sting was using the name in the early 80's. (Raaaaahks-anne....)

I'm not positive, but I think it had something to do with Borden doing it himself before WCW could.

This makes more sense.
