**POSSIBLE SPOILER** Possible Major return at Survivor Series?

It seems nobody is keen on a Sting v The Authority storyline?

I just think if he is meant to have only one more match then the best person on the roster either full or part time to have the match with is Triple H.

WWE effed up the streak by losing to Lesnar. If they're going to have the Authority "defeated" it needs to be someone big, with a massive aura, who can (sort of) taken on Triple H (and the Authority) physically and psychologically.

Undertaker would have been best placed to do that had he not lost his streak and just generally not been in bad shape.

Cena has been thrashed one too many times and doesn't quite have that psychological edge to him. The Austin 3:16 era won't be returning any time soon, not in the ring any way.

This is the ideal situation. Imagine the Authority running scared for weeks and months of Sting. One by one each member getting taken out by a baseball bat lol to the point The Game just snaps and lays it all on the line once and for all. Not just about control of the WWE but his own legacy i.e. the fact he's beaten so many "potential hall of famers" as he put it in that vignette before WM 30 last year and that Sting is someone he wants to prove himself against.


Yes he may be 56 but I'm sure he can manage one or two matches and even a tag match etc along the way.......

Really can't wait for tomorrow night.

You misread my post, I didn't say that. I'm actually all for it, and Sting vs HHH at Wrestlemania is a match I'd watch. I just feel Sting debuting and being made GM is more of a Raw segment than a PPV closing.

Ah ok.

No I meant nobody else seems keen on the idea. I just think bringing him in and making him the GM now would just kill any potential major storyline, not him debuting isn't a big deal.

I just wonder if they timed his debut not just for the free wwe network period but also to allow fans time to reconnect/discover about Sting's past, the Monday night wars, his legendary feuds with the NWO etc and just well, build up the hype.

Assuming it's the Sting crow character they will bring in, then simply elevating him to GM status in his first five minutes doesn't do justice to a character that represented the "forces of good" in the whole WCW v NWO era and was very much (imo) the ultimate good guy/anti-hero.


Triple H has always been one of the best heels in the business, even in his DX days I couldn't imagine him as anything other than a heel, someone you love to hate, who gets under your skin. Cena as a story character couldn't deal with that, the whole Hustle Loyalty Respect crap doesn't strike fear into anyone.

The Authourity can only really be and should be defeated by someone/something that plays them at their own game (no pun intended), outwits them pschologically etc i.e. someone no amount of "surprise matches", fake security guards, banning from the stadium can have no effect.

It's like a mugger trying to threaten Batman lol the whole "swear to me" deal.

Sorry just excited about Sting debuting.....imagine if he doesn't.


But yeah I've said it over and over again, that is the ideal and imo ONLY storyline they can have with Sting to do justice not only to his debut but his character, the Authourity storyline and in a sense the company as a whole which has been suffering in terms of ratings, a network which hasn't set the fans imaginations alight, heck WM31 isn't even sold out yet.
