Sting To WWE: 10 Ways To Book His Debut Now Undertaker Has Gone
9. A Regular TV Role Or Limited Run?
Details at this stage are limited, we don't know if Sting will be brought in for a regular TV role or a limited run through hot periods such as Mania season. The assumption right now would perhaps be the latter, it would feel more special if the character was associated only around WrestleMania. You also have to consider the fact that Sting is a rich man, he doesn't need to be putting in shifts every week, it's doubtful he would want to be appearing on Raw all year. Nevertheless, one report is persisting that Sting will be brought into WWE as a general manager. With Vickie Guerrero leaving the company, there's certainly scope for this on Smackdown, likewise on Raw we could see Brad Maddox easily replaced on a whim. Is this the right way to book Sting? Absolutely not. It isn't in his character to go from WCW mystery man into being part of the WWE scripted hierarchy. If he is going to be brought in for weekly TV, it should be similar to his WCW enigmatic appearances. Have him stalk the ringside, have him watching on from the crowd. Bringing him in as a WWE management figure when he has been the WWE antithesis for decades is plan silly.
