6 Things WWE Have Done Right So Far This WrestleMania Season (And 6 They Haven't)
5. Is Sting A Mute?
Stings WWE debut was one of the most historic and highly-anticipated moments in WWE history. From his first appearance at Survivor Series 2014, to his appearance on RAW before the Royal Rumble, to his confrontation with Triple H at WWE Fast Lane, each time Sting has made an appearance, the audience erupted in cheers for the biggest star to have never worked for WWE. However, theres one aspect of this rivalry that doesnt seem to make much sense: Why doesnt Sting actually speak? In all of Stings appearances, he has been booked in a similar place as The Undertaker: all he does is point at things with his baseball bat, make gestures, and use video promos to get his point across. In this feud, Triple H is the one who has been doing all the talking, and has been building most of the hype for their encounter at WrestleMania. Its a strange way of booking this feud because so far, weve only been given Triple Hs side of the story and his motivation for wanting to fight Sting; fans have not heard Stings side of the story, nor do we know why Sting is interested in fighting Triple H. Does Sting really believe that Triple H is the reason behind WCWs failure? Does Sting actually respect Triple H enough to face off against him at WrestleMania? These are all important questions that would help build the feud properly, instead of having only presenting one side of the rivalry. That said, its likely to be a good and highly-anticipated match, but it would really help if Sting cut a promo of his own at least once before WrestleMania rolls around.
