10 Times WWE Hurt Sting's Momentum

4. Making His Feud With Triple H About The Monday Night Wars

When Sting finally arrived in WWE at Survivor Series in 2014 and helped Dolph Ziggler overcome The Authority, his motives for doing so weren't made clear. Whether he was there to make an impact or to ensure the villainous stable was put out of power, it was months before fans knew the reasoning behind Sting's actions. In the meantime, Triple H was on TV every week talking about the Monday Night Wars and how Sting was the last holdout from WCW. He discussed WWE's eventual victory over the organization and how it later led to Sting's "venturing out into the darkness" for over a decade. It wasn't until the final Raw before WrestleMania that Sting said he didn't particularly care about representing WCW in his rivalry with Triple H; he was solely concerned with taking him down once and for all. It was what the feud should have been focused on the whole time. Despite Sting's claims, their WrestleMania match was saddled with interference from Attitude Era stars including D-Generation X and the New World Order. It's safe to assume WWE used the program as a vehicle to promote their Monday Night Wars show on the WWE Network, but if that was their only intent, it was a waste of what could have been something much better.
