I'm sure IF something does happen it'll be a teaser until Jan/Feb when Taker returns. :pachaha:


Yeah, that's the bad part. I don't need a match or any kind of real physical altercation, but just throwing them out there (like this Lesnar feud) would be a major mistake IMO.

After months – if not years – of speculation and rumor, Dave Metlzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that WCW legend and former TNA wrestler Steve "Sting" Borden has signed a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment. Sting's new deal will include television time, but at present it is unknown when "The Icon" will make his on-screen debut, and how frequently he will be used.

Reports coming in prior to WrestleMania XXX called for Sting to face The Undertaker in some kind of match, most likely at next year's WrestleMania in Santa Clara, CA. However, following the Deadman's now-infamous loss to Brock Lesnar this past weekend, that match-up seems more unlikely. There was a rumor going around earlier this year of WWE bringing Sting in as an authority figure on Monday Night Raw, similar to "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Mick Foley, Bret Hart and many others being used as general managers, commissioners, etc.

Sting made his last televised appearance for TNA Wrestling at January's Genesis live special edition of Impact Wrestling on Spike TV, prior to his contract with the company expiring. His signing with WWE could be seen as a major deal, as Sting is well known for being the last wrestling legend of the modern era, who has never worked for Vince McMahon.

The latest word on Sting sounds like same ol same ol, maybe the Warrior induction/death had something to do with them sealing the deal :ld:

I'm actually disappointed. I never wanted Sting to sign with the WWF/E. They have terrible writers and a terrible creative team. They're going to misuse him and taint his legacy. He must be starving for money or something.

The Man Called Sting made his first live appearance at a WWE event today at San Diego Comic-Con International 2014.

See Sting & Hogan's first Mattel photos!

Joining a panel co-hosted by WWE and Mattel, the face-painted WCW icon surprised a massive crowd in San Diego moments after the reveal of his first-ever WWE Mattel action figure. Sting then sat beside the likes of WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan, former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan, Paul Heyman, Michael Cole and Mattel brand managers for a brief visit with the WWE Universe and pop culture devotees in attendance.
