Then at the PPV, Flair turns on Sting and shows that Sting was right to mistrust him all along. This was the formation of the newest Horsemen with Flair/Arn/Pillman, and they added Benoit like a month later as the fourth.
Usually companies stick to turns where the other guy isn't supposed to suspect that anything is up, so I actually found this whole story to be a really enjoyable breath of fresh air. Obviously it helps to have legends like Flair and Arn playing their roles in it.
