Sting wants in the WWE...

[Wondermouse]

Sting's rappelling was a lot more safe anyway. He was heavily strapped in.

That'd be exciting to see Sting's return. I wonder what kind of angle he'd be in. Hopefully he wouldn't show up, job to Orton, then leave. Sting/Rock at WMXXI would be pretty cool.

The last laugh would be on Orton though. He'd never get through all that makeup to spit in Stin's face.

But you just know that's exactly what they'd do. And it'd still flop; if bringing Mick Foley out of retirement just to job him off to Captain Bland didn't get Orton over, then why would the flagship character of the company WWE has taken each and every opportunity to bury and deem inferior make any difference?

I'm sure L-C would love it, but just thinking about it has me holding back vomit.

Anyways, I never ever ever ever ever ever ever want to see the Stinger come to WWE. If Vince and company couldn't book Goldberg right, there's no way in hell they'd get Sting. On Raw, he'd have to play second fiddle to the never-ending HHH/HBK feud, or get a title feud that will make Chris Benoit look even more like a second-rate champion compared to the "real" main eventers, or like I said, go on a doomed feud to vainly try and put Orton over. On Smackdown, there'd be a little more leeway, but the only thing I could see him doing without hurting the progress of Booker T or Eddie Guerrero is feud with the Undertaker, and I highly doubt they'd let him go over. And after that, what's left for him? Absolutely nothing. Sure, it might be cool to see Sting vs Flair part four-hundred-seventy-two, but I would much rather remember Sting for the legacy he left with WCW, not just another 'old' guy who won't stay retired.

You're kidding, right? Someone actually DOESN'T want Sting to come to the WWE?

Sting would be a VERY good addition, but if they have him on RAW, then that would really start to make their talent pool a little TOO good, and some of the talent will get buried when they shouldn't be. He would HAVE to go on SmackDown. And I think they would be able to use him right while still not having to worry about stinting Booker or Eddie's push (how would he possibly be able to do THAT is beyond me).

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.
