Guest kowking Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 did you guys see those two vignettes last night? interesting stuff, very Starrcadeish I've long thought it would be -- forgive me -- candyassed of the 'E and Sting not to work together for this Wrestlemania, a legitimate show catastrophe But I'm not going to hold out hope too hard. What do ya'll think?
rovert Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 I was all over it last night. Loving all the theories. Has to be a top guy if they played it twice. But Dave just waved it all off this morning and said it was probably the Undertaker. Ick.
goodhelmet Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Any video clips of these online yet?
BBscout Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Any video clips of these online yet? I would think there's hope with them going PG and that being one of his sticking points/not happy with their content in the past. Have they ever done a recruiting pitch type deal where they run something like that but have then audibled to plan B with the intent of that being an option anyhow (ie - Run this even without a deal in place then have the payoff just be for Taker if it falls through)
Log Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 I didn't get the impression that it was Taker. I think Jacob from Lost is going to be debuting. I didn't really feel like it was Sting either. Whoever it is was wearing cowboy boots in the promo.
Busterira Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Any video clips of these online yet?
rovert Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Screencaps from F4W board At the very least it is providing some fun speculation
flyonthewall2983 Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Those don't look like cowboy boots.
rovert Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 On the third picture some people said they saw a scorpion in the pillar On the fifth and final picture some people saw STING written in smoke

That date Raw is being held in California..... If it is Sting at least they learned their lesson from Bret Hart last year in that they are going to debut him after Elimination Chamber and not the first week of January.
Sean Liska Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 On the third picture some people said they saw a scorpion in the pillar On the fifth and final picture some people saw STING written in smoke I love this stuff. Hopefully it doesn't end up being a dissapointment. I've heard speculation that Taker is returning to his biker persona, which wouldn't do much for me.
rovert Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4ySnmSdrEE Either a massive red herring or I may cry in a corner here.
Coffey Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 If it was Sting, I assume WWE would use the old "Crow" version of Sting? Honestly, when I saw it, I just assumed it was The Undertaker because he always comes back for Wrestlemania. What would Sting even do in WWE? I hope they use him better than Diamond Dallas Page.
Sean Liska Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4ySnmSdrEE Either a massive red herring or I may cry in a corner here. Now I'm telling myself that Taker would have to be there for the big Sting angle. God, this is probably going to be so dissapointing.

Honestly, when I saw it, I just assumed it was The Undertaker because he always comes back for Wrestlemania. What would Sting even do in WWE? I hope they use him better than Diamond Dallas Page. It's a safe bet they would go with the "Crow" Sting. I think it's good for him to have waited this long, rather than to have been lost in the shuffle of guys who came in at the early part of the decade after WCW ended. It'll work on two levels, one for the old fans who loved him in WCW and for the younger fans who probably don't watch TNA. But in my mind, this is all speculation. I'm very skeptical of this even happening. I'll be happy to be wrong and will gladly eat my words about it, I just won't be shocked if it's the Undertaker or even Trips.
Ditch Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 HHH would make zero sense from the teaser. Sting would make sense to use for Mania in Atlanta. But who does he face other than Taker such that it would impact the buyrate?
Loss Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Sting is in his 50s. If I want to see Sting, there's plenty of it out there already.
El-P Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Sting is in his 50s. If I want to see Sting, there's plenty of it out there already. What you said. It's funny that the only "exciting" stuff in WWE these days seems to be : Kevin Nash and Booker T showing up at the Rumble. Jerry Lawler probably getting a match at Mania. Speculation about Sting showing up in WWE. Well, that's the vibe I get as someone who doesn't watch the product but kinda follows what happens.
tomk Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 Oh shit, are the Desperados finally going to find Stan Hansen?
El-P Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 I think the New Blackjacks are back actually... Plus Barry really looks like his father now.
smkelly Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 I thought of Dustin Rhodes with his Black Reign gimmick. If it is Sting, that's kind of a weird setup video.
