This is an outstanding Flair promo. He says the difference between the two of them is that Flair woke up the day after Sting beat him for the title still knowing he was the best and plotting his path back to the top, while Sting hasn't shown him that. That's such an awesome thing to say for someone in the elder statesman role. Because it's WCW, he hypes a cage match that is apparently taking place in some unknown location on an unknown date.

This is so much better than the first cage match promo it's not even funny. Flair's always better when he's trying to mess with his opponent's head than he is when he's just bragging on himself, and here he attempts to do a psych job on Sting, not by saying that he doesn't believe Sting can be The Man, but that Sting himself doesn't believe it, even as he asks for cage matches with Gigante as the referee.

 

Like a lot of others here, I'm now excited for a match that I know isn't on the set (though the parts of WarGames where they faced off provided a nice little preview). If Flair would just do promos like this all the time, he'd deserve his reputation as the best heel promo in wrestling history.
