10 Reasons Why Sting vs. Seth Rollins Is Bad For Business
5. Because What Does This Say To Midcard Talent?
WWE's got a loaded midcard full of guys deserving to break through the glass ceiling. Bringing back Sting may pop a rating, but it's not instilling any sort of confidence in the performers in your company. Instead of Sting, this would be an opportune time to give any one of the three performers shown (and hell, let's throw a few other names in there like Neville and heck, Dolph Ziggler, too) an opportunity to sink or swim. If WWE's PPV model is now priced at $9.99, then there's incentive to try some new concepts in presenting these shows.Elevating midcarders would be a fine way to proceed in that direction.
