Hogan was politicking and sabotaging during his whole WCW run. he started with Flair, destroyed Vader's heat, then moved on to Sting, Hart, etc. I seem to recall hearing about guys like Rude and possibly Orndorff refusing to wrestle Hogan due to his treatment of them when they were in Mahon land with him, as well.
I'm pretty sure it was at this point that Sting just threw his hands up and stopped giving a shit.
