Actually, I feel the same way. Sting is such a good character and such a good guy and a consummate professional, that I'd feel like shit watching him come to the WWE just to have his character reduced to a laughing stock or to watch him job to Randy Orton and then disappear. He doesn't need the money, he always has and always will be a part of the good memories of the WCW, he has nothing to prove...basically, it would be great to see Sting in the WWE as a dark character, causing nightmares for the biggest heels in the company. And he wouldn't have to win all his matches, but he'd have to be booked as a real intimidating force; somebody to be feared. Hell, he's charismatic enough and the CrowSting was over enough that he probably could be on TV for weeks without saying a word and still get over.
But as has been mentioned, it won't happn. The WWE would sign him, have him come back, he'd be cool for a week or two, and then he'd be laying down for Orton or on Smackdown, dancing with Rikishi. He'd look like a fool and anyone who's really a fan of Sting and not just a fan of the WWE doesn't want that.
I do agree on your SD statements, though. UPN actually appears in more households than SpikeTV and the WWE would be smart to focus their attention on the product that could conceivably get them bigger ratings with more exposure.
