10 Things You Will Just Have To Accept About Sting In WWE
Meet the new Sting. Not the same as the old Sting.
Sting's WWE in-ring wrestling debut at Wrestlemania has been anticipated for at least 15 years by many WWE fans, and has officially been built up since November's Survivor Series PPV. When the "rogue vigilante" appeared and allowed Dolph Ziggler the opportunity to win the traditional Survivor Series match for Team Cena, it immediately set wrestling fans' minds on fire. Well, here's to extinguishing those fires in just over 1000 words. Sting's undoubtedly a pro wrestling legend. He's had spellbinding matches on multiple continents, and wrestled nearly all of the great names in both WWE and WCW history. However, he's also 55 years old and winding down his career. Thus, expecting career-redefining performances against the names he has left to wrestle in WWE is impossible to expect. As well, also don't expect WWE to exactly be kind to his legacy or to see him on many levels as not much more than a guy whose merchandise is going to keep the company able to reach the profits expected by their investors. It's a sad, but true reality of wrestling in the "corporate" age, but certainly one that within its limits Sting will hopefully be able to provide some exciting moments. All that being said, here's ten (of what are likely many) things that we'll have to accept about Sting's "compromised" experiences as an occasional contracted performer in World Wrestling Entertainment.
