I am sure most of you wwe marks will have so much animosity and hatred towards STING cause he won't head to wwe disneymania! I notice many fans get mad Many will go as far and Bash STING! When you start bashing Sting for not coming to the wwe (out of his own genuine disinterest), YOU DO "SOUND" like wwe marks, because you give the IMPRESSION that you believe that being in the wwe is the ONLY thing that matters in the pro wrestling industry, and that you could only be a fan of Sting or give him the respect he ALREADY deserves if (and only if) he came to wwe.
Do you understand where Sting is REALLY coming from? He's from the old school. Call it old-fashioned or stubborn, these people usually are set in their ways (or initial thoughts). It isn't a bad thing all the time, because most of us were given the great advice when we were young to trust our "gut feeling" in certain situations. Sting is a legend, has had one of the best careers ever, and is honored by fans and the industry alike worldwide. Has it ever occured to you that he's not really looking for "more," that he' s content where he is? He has put a lot into TNA. He saw something there worth his time and effort, in a time where TNA was going in a better direction. As bad as TNA may be now, some are still willing to remain loyal there. Sting falls in this crowd, maybe not. But isn't it quite possible that he's already satisfied? Steve Borden(STING) doesn't feel up to putting in the extra work to change over and deal with the bright lights, heavy schedule, and high demand in wwe's unfamiliar atmosphere? You should chalk that up more to his age than anything else. He's like an old man who used to play all kind of sports, but now would rather rest in his EZ chair and watch them. Maybe he's found a comfortable niche that he'll stay in until retirement. He can imagine what it would be like to work with underfaker, but that certainly doesn't mean that that's enough to want to take the next flight to Greenwich and bang down Vince's door just to sign with the wwe. He's had more than enough main events, dream matches, great rivalries, and defning moments to be SATISFIED.
Sting won't come to the wwe (for whatever reason - the reason is not the point). But if he doesn't have anything to prove, or doesn't have the desire or energy to make the change and make it work, and is content enough to stay in great TNA, then does he really have to go to wwe? Should he really go to
No. I say leave him alone, he's fine. If he comes FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! But he won t job to the beer belly flabbin, leather claddin mascara weain he said it . If he doesn't, in NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM does that hurt his LEGACY. Fans of all sports tend to get too emotionally wrapped up into every waking move of their favorite stars, so they get mad when they don't get their way, when it's the STAR's choice in the first place.
No matter how many legends have said their childhood dream was to go there, we have one of the biggest legends who NEVER had the dream of going there. It's proof that the wwe does not define the pro wrestling industry, that there are many great talents outside of wwe (as always), and that you can be successful and make a name for yourself without the wwe's help. Surely you can see that Vince's ego won't let him admit this. So you can support wwe for being the best in the business right now (as I do), but don't go knocking one of the best ever WHILE doing so, when in actuality he deserve's everyone's RESPECT. And I truly expect only people who aren't wwe marks (or casual fans) to truly understand this concept.
Vince has never really proven that his ego doesn't come into play with regards to new talent that have had stints in TNA or WCW for that matter. He constantly buries these talents or holds them down from achieving real success in the wwe, even at the behest of a good portion of wrestling fans. Vince has had incidents before with talent where he proved himself to be untrustworthy. Sting is not wet behind the ears; neither his experience in the wrestling industry nor his experience in handling business/people in general should be taken lightly. Not to mention that wwe is supposed to be in a youth movement, and Sting is in his 50's.
He really has nothing to prove by going to the wwe. TNA has always had a loyal fan base who oppose the general format of wwe and dislike the way they handle things. It was founded in that same vein as well, which means there are wrestlers and other figures in the industry who feel the same way. I mean where is DDP, GOLDBERG, Billy Kidman ,Scott Steiner(Big Poppa Dump), Lex Luger, Kevin Nash, Prick Flair,SID Vicious , Big Van Vader, Mike Awesome, Brian Pillman etc???? They were ex@WCW wrestlers who were misused and mistreated where did it get them ? NOWHERE
