Hey, here's a WrestleMania rumour for ya... *SPOILERS YOU IDIOT*

Quote:
WRESTLING icon Sting is being pursued by both WWE and TNA.

The multiple-time WCW champion is the only legend of the modern era NEVER to have worked for Vince McMahon.
But with WrestleMania in WCW's previous home of Atlanta this year, it is thought McMahon wants Sting to be a part of the show and inducted into the Hall of Fame.
The grappler — real name Steve Borden — is currently a free agent after his TNA contract came to an end late last year. He had been a main event star for Dixie Carter's group since 2003.
WWE's Jim Ross this week blogged: "We're getting lots of emails and tweets regarding Sting these days. Has he left TNA? I actually don't know the answer to that one but suspect that Sting is still officially with TNA.
"Nonetheless many fans hope that he is inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame in Atlanta at WrestleMania 27.
"Theoretically, if Sting were not working for another wrestling company, it would be a splendid idea. It still might be but that's not for me to speculate on.
"Sting was the first and only WCW star that Ted Turner's people 'made' in Atlanta that never wrestled for WWE as best that I recall."
However, The Stinger's old boss Eric Bischoff — now a key member of the TNA roster — told Monday Night Mayhem that his friend will most likely stick with the place he knows best.
Bischoff said: "If I had to guess, and if he is going to sign another agreement, which I'm not sure he is going to do at this stage of his career, my bet would be that he is going to sign with TNA.
"I'm not sure what Sting's motivations are at this point.
"I know physically he's told me on more than one occasion that it's getting harder and harder to deliver the type of performances that he wants to deliver in the ring for his fans. That's got to be a big part of his consideration.
"Realistically, if he would go to the WWE, there would be some additional pressure, much more than in TNA, to perform in the ring, and that would be a hard thing for him to do at this point in his career."

Problem is I would have expected him to be the 1st inductee announced...then again, he did never work for Vince and Shawn has been a loyalist...

If he is not the 2nd one announced, I doubt he's getting in this year.

Just sign a legends deal with WWE Sting. No wrestling needed, a HoF induction, a WWE backed DVD with involvement from Sting, appearances in video games, action figures, etc.

No reason to stay in TNA.

I never said that. I'm sure they could offer that and then some, but at the same time maybe the feel Sting isn't NECESSARY at that price. Everybody's got a price (for the Million Dollar Man, and Vince), but evidently Vince never offered enough for Sting to put his morals aside, and I was saying it seemed as if TNA offered MORE money or either offered LESS work than Vince was willing to offer. It's all speculation, but at this stage in his career, and what he's able to offer in terms of in-ring product, maybe Vince isn't willing to write the blank check that would make Sting jump.

WWE will start off big with HBK, and SHOULD Sting be inducted, he WILL be the last name announced.....

If the situation does occur, I imagine he'll be inducted, then have a match on the card to say that he wrestled for Vince once.....and ftr, I'd give my left nut for his opponent to be Taker.....

I don't want to see him wrestle Taker. Because I don't want him to lose his last match. I still think he will wrestle his greatest opponent, Ric Flair in both of their last matches at BFG next year.That's how I want to see him go out. When I was young I hated Hogan. I din't care for Warrior. I was a Sting and Vader fan...wait a minute new idea. VADER for HOF!

Honestly? I don't think so. There's nothing at this point that would be a "Dream Match" in WWE with Sting other than Taker. If this were a few years ago, you'd have many more reasons to keep him around. Flair and Michaels coming to mind immediately. But I don't think WWE would keep him around for more than a one-off with Taker.

Okay, maybe he'd get the equivalent, but no way he'd be around for more than one angle. That ship sailed a few years ago.

A couple appearances and the merchandising money that could be made? Vince'd wet himself at the opportunity.

I kinda feel like if this were the case, Vince would have written the blank check back when Sting was more relevant. I'm not saying Vince doesn't want him per say, but only at the right price. Obviously with the moral issues Sting had with the E inthe past, and wanting to be used correctly (see Invasion and DDP) I think Sting's price would be a little higher than what Vince would wanna pay considering what he'll get from Sting at this point in his career. He can do the DVD w/o Sting if he so chooses. He owns the footage. Yeah it'd be nice for Sting for be a part of it, but that's never stopped Vince before (see Macho and Warrior).

For the record, I too think it would be cool for him to go out w/ a HOF induction, but my original post was simply stating he had a pretty nice reason to hang in TNA as he was getting paid to do very little.

I agree that his stock is WAY down from where it would have been in 2003. All of the WCW dream matches and attitude era stuff has really sailed.
The modern audience doesn't care/know about a lot of this stuff.

But I do think WWE would see having Sting around for a short time as a good move, and they obviously have the money to outbid TNA and not blow money doing it.
Honestly, signing him to a merchandising, HOF and one-match deal would be all that's worth it. But worth it.

Sting is the one guy who Vince never had. Without even wrestling a match I'm sure he'd spare no expense at getting him onboard. Like parkmania said, the merchandising returns would be amazing.

I know Sting was never in WWE, but if he was to be inducted in the HOF it would be nice for him to be the main inductee, whom this years honor goes to Shawn Michaels. I'd save Sting for another year.

Do current WWE fans even know who Sting is? I can't see a whole lot of money to be made off of Sting other than DVD's.

This has to be one of the sickest WrestleMania poster I have ever seen! But if it were real Sting would fall to the Undertaker and I have my doubts that Sting would want to loose his first and possibly his last match in the WWE.

Sting said in an interview he’d love to wrestle The Undertaker one day, so there’s a possibility of the match.

Yea but if Sting is brought in to face Undertaker at Wrestlemania (which is almost the only worthy scenario), he's gotta lose.
He shouldn't snap the streak, especially at this stage and in his only match. That would be absurd.

So what you're looking at, is bringing Sting into the company for 1 match, to lose.
I'm fine with that, since it would be awesome just for the hype and build.
But how do you think he would feel about that? Him and a lot of others would probably say it's not worth it.

Maybe it would be better suited for Summerslam. It has to be Taker though, or HHH. Aside from those two, I can't think of anyone else who's even moderately interesting to see in a match with Sting now.
He's a holdover from older eras, and the only real payoffs would have also have history in those eras. I don't think Sting vs Orton, Cena or Sheamus is very exciting.
A match with Shawn would have been great, but it's too late now and I don't want to see him dragged out of retirement for anything.

Well, since Sting hasn't signed with anyone yet, it's anybody's game.

Especially with Sting healing his shoulder right now.

Jeri beat me to it but WCW loyalist Sting v WWE loyalist HBK would make for a decent set-up.

Obviously not if Shawn intends to keep his word on retirement (which, lets face it, wrestlers rarely do).

I don't personally care if he's not the "main attraction" at the HOF ceremony. Fact of the matter is he's a free agent. We don't know what TNA is planning, but it's unlikely to think they're not interested in retaining him and this may the last legitimate opportunity for WWE to sign him.

He doesn't have to wrestle, or be the "main attraction" at the ceremony. The mere idea of him actually appearing on WWE television would be worth it alone. I'd much rather see him in a segment at Mania beating someone down and locking the Scorpion Deathlock on in a one off ala Hogan in 2005 than actually trying to pull a match out of him in front of an audience that doesn't know, nor probably cares that he's in the ring.
