Sad news. The Ultimate Warrior passed away :( Go figure, finally get inducted into the Hall of Fame and then kicks the bucket.
The Wrestling Observer is claiming that Sting signed a contract with WWE. I'm unsure whether or not to believe it, but since Sting has departed from TNA and Ultimate Warrior was a friend, maybe. All I know if the deal is true is that Sting won't be wrestling full time.
They may have sting doing the same role they were gonna have warrior doing - i think the title was "brand ambassador", whatever that is supposed to mean.
UW was a total icon but like a lot of people in that industry he was a huge idiot bigot and it's a shame he never got to realise this and maybe apologise for all the dumb idiot bigot things he said before he snuffed it.
It's a topic of nostalgia for me. I used to get excited about being allowed to stay up an hour later to watch wrestling with my uncle c:
Sting did a Q&A recently and in response to a question said words to the effect of "well my new favourite number is 31" so make of that what you will.
Here you go:
Dunno what his role will be if he has signed, obviously he won't be *WrestleMania spoilers* (SPOILER)challenging the streak so we'll have to see what happens.
There are so many things they could do with Sting that you could go on for hours just to realize that WWE probably won't be smart enough to do any of it.
The latest rumour doing the rounds is Sting vs The Rock apparently, I think it's got to the point where as long as he wrestles somebody I'll be content. But yeah, leave it to WWE to completely mess it up no doubt.
I'd still prefer Sting vs The Undertaker regardless of the storyline surrounding it, at least it would be a less strenuous match for Taker in comparison to his last five or six Mania matches with nothing to prove now. A simple 'Icon vs Icon' match would be adequate enough.
