Is it possible that Sting is "going through the motions" in TNA and would be able to pull out a great showing at Mania?

Yeah! I think when most current WWE fans' exposure to Sting is through DVDs, most of his pop would come from the IWC...which is divided on his return. Yay to Sting for not jobbing to Taker by staying in TNA!

It looks as it is NOW for Sting with rumours of his TNA contract not being renewed, the storyline next week and rumours of him being WWE bound surfacing once again. If he would arrive on time for the rumble..... Imagine him entering and winning? Then say Orton retains against Cena and then either the following night or week after issues an open challenge on raw and then undertaker returned and won? How would this affect my original Daniel Bryan prediction of winning? Maybe they could do the faces v authority match Cena Bryan and punk v Kane triple h and Orton so as to the top faces don't miss out on a mania main event? If sting is coming then sting v taker must be THE main focus of the ppv.

But then where does that put Brock Lesnar with his title shot at No Way Out? Maybe Batista interferes and costs him the match leading to another feud?

I dont get your POV, it's not about seeing Sting, it's wanting to see a whole load of fresh 'dream matches' if he goes to WWE.

Besides, with all the superb production and hype vids WWE can make any match look a million bucks. At Wrestlemania the occasion and atmosphere can disguise how bad a match actually is, Hogan/Warrior was basic but had everyone on edge.

ive been a sting mark for years. and seeing him potentially at WM or even in the WWE in general would be great IMO

however the realist in me says he will lose next wk on impact, be "fired" or whatever the stipulation is, take a couple weeks off. then resign with TNA for a year and be back on tv.

then rinse-wash-repeat this time next year

Why would they waste a title match on Sting? He doesn't need it, he's arguably the biggest 'free agent' going, they have footage of him going back 25 years or so they can use to hype him as the second coming of pro 'rasslin, him coming in should be a big enough selling point for his match that adding the only big title to it is a waste of a promotional tool for another match. And Sting vs 'Taker isn't THE match with a shitty two month build.

be great to see him in WWE just for the spectacle, he'd instantly be worth/mean more than he ever has in TNA, they'd "produce" the shit out of him, he'd no doubt bust his balls in ring wise given the stage, he'd have 8-12 weeks to get in the best shape possible given they'd surely keep him off the road except for TV etc. Have a "WWE produced segment" aka lots of lighting, effects and so forth etc with him coming in and "saving" whoever is being targeted by The Shield going into Mania, "I have a history of taking down unstoppable groups" yadda yadda, handicap match, whoever and Sting over at Mania via something that further teases/sets up Reigns leaving, release a big DVD bio set later in the year, stick him in the HOF next year and we're golden. He can still go with the right guys. Ambrose and Rollins would make him look like a beast.

WWE has been PG for some time now and more family friendly then probably since the mid 90s. I have no clue what's going on in TNA but the last time I watched, Ken Anderson came out and called his fans a bunch of ass holes about fifty times while Velvet Sky bounced her ass up and down on the middle rope while getting into the ring.

Booker T did just fine for himself despite The Rock making one short comment in passing which was forgotten about the next week. The Rock did the same to Jericho when he debuted as well and he turned out ok.

I just don't buy Sting's excuses.

I have zero interest in Sting vs Taker either. Mainly because I wouldn't want Sting to be brought in just to do the job. At least let him win his first match.

It's more Sting/'Taker stayed put during their respective big runs. It's like mofo said, a bunch of fresh 'dream' matches, there are a bunch of top guys he's never interacted with let alone wrestled, if they used him sparingly they could protect his image and get a few matches out of him before the nostalgia wears off.

Its been 13 years since Sting was relevant to WWE's audience... Wrestling is booked in 7 year patterns..due to average viewers drifting off...

Hardly any of WWE's mark audience have a clue who Sting is... Why would WWE want to book him?

The time was 8/9 years ago. This ship has sailed..

They're going to milk the WCW library for all its worth once the Network launches, it makes sense from that standpoint in a way, but if they don't sign him it doesn't really affect that or his inevitable DVD realistically.

That's a reason, not an excuse.

FACKING BALSHIT!!

That "7 year cycle" makes literally no sense. As if people switch on at the age of 8 in 2014 and then spot watching at the age of 15 in 2021.

Pffft, I forget things in less than 7 years... I'd say 4 is my limit. After that it is all a haze of "I know some things that generally happened, but no idea of the specifics anymore"

To the people talking about hype and production, it would STILL BE STING at the end of the day, which really isn't all that exciting right now. You sound like you're saying that you just really would like to be fooled. It's just Sting...

But a ribbon on a turd, and what is it?

It would be the same with any legend being brought in, the last lot of Hogan matchups were dire but were carried on the hype.

I still think Sting could put on a good showing given the right opponent.

Sting also has the "charisma" and "mic skills" to at the very least get us excited about his appearance/match.

At this moment, I could see a Sting/Punk match at WM - have Sting be brought in as what "real rasslin'" is, as opposed to "those indy/internet darlings".

You're not talking about reusing gimmicks/angles/stories/etc. You're saying that the audience don't know/wouldn't remember/care who Sting is.

Would the same not apply to Lesnar, who was gone for 8 years? He got a massive reaction. Flair had been gone from the WWE for almost a decade when he came back in 2001 to a huge reaction. Hogan, left in 93, came back in 2002.

If they execute it in the right way - against the right person, in the right city - he'd get the reaction. Wouldn't take long for today's "marks" to get it.

Lesnar stayed relevant to WWE's audience while he was gone by making a name for himself in the UFC. Flair was gone from WWE but relevant in WCW which was on par with WWE at times and shared an audience. Same with Hogan. Sting has not stayed relevant.

Lesnar was a huge draw outside of WWE, Flair transcended wrestling, Hogan is Hulk Hogan... using these examples only further proves the point I'm making.

Sting was a draw for a while in a company that didn't exist 7 years ago. He is irrelevant to the average fan today. No further questions your honour. You'll just have to accept that you are wrong on this occasion.
