Ok guys its not Sting...

1. One thing about guys who come to WWE who were once famous in WCW is that they always have to job to Triple H. Goldberg, Booker T, Scott Steiner, Hogan, Nash, Flair... I know if I think there is probably another one in there. I think Sting should try and stay away from that list.

2.If Sting signs with WWE, his legacy lies in the hands of a guy he said he would never work for. If he truly wants to go work for Vince McMahon, he is taking a risk.

3.If Sting were to wrestle at the biggest show of the year, it would no doubt be against The Undertaker. The Undertaker will never lose at Wrestlemania. Is this the way Sting should make his debut?

4.Sting is 51 years old. Does he really want to take such a huge risk in his career at this point? In wrestling, anything is possible. However, I don't see Sting agreeing to any kind of full-time schedule. However, if Jerry Lawler and Ric Flair can do it, I know Sting can.

5.I don't know Sting, but he seems like a pretty respectable guy. Does he really want to go against his word and join WWE? He said in an interview years ago that he would never join.

6.If you look at the history between WWE and other legends, one thing seems to always come in the way: money. Hulk Hogan turned down huge money to appear at Wrestlemania 20, 23 and 25 because it just wasn't enough for The Hulkster. If Vince McMahon would somehow low-ball the biggest draw in wrestling history, how much money would he be willing to hand out to Sting?

7.If there was any time to bring Sting into WWE, it would have been when WCW was purchased. Why the hell didn't Vince McMahon just splurge a little and bring the right talent in to make the storyline and brand work? Oh yeah, The XFL. The ship has sailed. These 2-21-2011 things are obviously The Undertaker, so don't get your hopes up.

8.If this were to be done before Wrestlemania, the ice would've been shattered on this story already. There is not enough time to truly build a program for Wrestlemania at this point. I could see something immediately after Mania to help the yearly post-Wrestlemania lull, but it is highly unlikely.

9.This is the most simple reason: WWE has zero interest in Sting. I really think that if Vince wanted to bring Sting in that bad, it would've happened a long time ago. Money talks and Sting would listen. With the current youth movement, Sting wouldn't quite fit into the WWE mold. He would provide us old school fans with some amazing moments and nostalgia, but this isn't what WWE really wants to do at this point. In conclusion, I hope I am wrong on all fronts here. As a loyal, old school wrestling fan, I'd love to see Sting finish his career the right way inside the WWE squared circle
