That was much, much later, during the phase Hogan was going by his real name during some Russo stupidity. I think. Sting went heel at Fall Brawl '99. He turned by hitting Hogan with a ball bat and taking the WCW belt as a result. Luger & Sting then formed a heel tandem with Liz, culminating with Hogan "laying down" for Sting at Halloween Havoc as per orders from the Powers That Be (Russo & Ferrara), in an angle that mirrored July of 2000's Jarrett/Hogan deal. Sting then "lost" the WCW belt to Goldberg that same night, who then forfeited it the next night himself on Nitro, (where Sting turned back face) and thus began Russo's idiotic giant tournament to crown a new WCW champ (Bret Hart) by Mayhem. Hogan was not seen in WCW again until Sullivan regained the book and built everything around him ...until, you guessed it, Russo returned, and thus began the angle you spoke of: TCB - Takin' care of Bollea, lol. (I kid you not.) Most of that is true except Sullivan never built around Hogan that much. Hogan took the back seat to Sid most nights except for a few Nitro's and Uncensored 2000. Superbrawl 2000 (Hogan's return PPV) featured him in the semi main.

Sting did actually have a match with Hogan during this time on Nitro, I remember it was a pretty big deal too. Hogan was decked out in black and Sting was trying to bring him back from the dark side and wore the Hogan colors during the match. I remember nothing from the match aside from one hilarious moment that made me laugh hard as a 9 year old. Sting has Hogan in the Deathlock and Hogan is screaming in pain and he yells at the ref "He's breaking my legs!!!" HAHAHAHAHA! Just thinking about it makes me laugh so hard.

Not exactly as I quoted it, but exactly as I pictured it. Hogan grabbing onto Randy Anderson and howling in pain. Still makes me laugh almost 18 years later.
