That Jarrent/Sting match from 2000 was good if I recall correctly.

That Jarrent/Sting match from 2000 was good if I recall correctly.

Almost nothing during this time was any good in WCW. Here is CRZ's recap of the match, although I edited the nicknames CRZ gives the wrestlers just so its easier to understand:

 

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE: JEFF JARRETT v. STING - Who drove the monster truck? And did they drive the Hummer? The title belt has no nameplate, yup. Jarrett has a feature in the new WCW Magazine - doesn't that make you want to subscribe? OH MY GOD IT'S A CROW!!!!!! AND HE'S CHAINED TO THE SCAFFOLDING! A **SCARY** CROW!!!!! Hey, wouldn't it have been funny if he'd crapped on Sting as he walked under him? THAT would have been a power! Sting ducks, clothesline, clothesline, Mexican (or is it Japanese? I forget) armdrag, Mexican armdrag (hey, I'm as surprised as you are!), Ten Punch Count Along - Jarrett sidesteps the Stinger splash, but he lands on his feet and clotheslines Jarrett to the outside - and follows. Head to the barricade. To the barricade! Suplex onto the raised aisle - the Mark is trying to include math and physics in his commentary again (he's wrong again). Sting on top - splash attempt - MISSES! Jarrett drops a fist, right, right, Jarrett finds a chair - to the gut, to the gut again, Sting walking up the aisle - chair edge to the back - Sting getting to his feet as Jarrett sweeps his legs with the chair. Referee "Blind" Charles Robinso somehow finds a way to get Jarrett walking back towards the ring. Sting is up - and running at Jarrett...clothesline puts them both back in the ring! Robinson puts on the count - at 6, Jarrett gets up and makes the sign - figure four! Shoulder down - 1, 2, no! Sting motioning to the crowd - and they respond. As they should - this is like the first match they've seen all freakin' night, already. Sting turns the hold over - and Jarrett quickly grabs the rope. Sting hobbling, but he can still hit "Iblockyourpunchyoudon'tblockmine," again, right, clothesline, right, into the opposite corner, Stinger splash, into another corner, another Stinger splash, cue the run-in, Scorpion Deathlock is applied an Sting's back is to the - oh, never mind, I can see somebody cutting through the ring apron - apparently we weren't supposed to see it, as they switch to another camera angle. Yup, there's VAMPIRO come to pull Sting under the ring - a fire extinguisher goes off under the ring as the commentators give us "what's all that smoke filling the ring?" Crowd chants "Bullshit" as Sting emerges with red stuff all over him. Jarrett covers - 1, 2, 3. (5:35)
