GavinSAFC Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Nobody gives a fuck what colour Sting's hair is.....the fact is he has made his WWE debut and its the biggest thing thats happened in wrestling for years! Â I agree with Slapnuts, WWE have got me hooked on their product at the moment...and they are going to have a great few months leading to Mania. Â I'm with you here. I've never been this into wrestling since I was in my teens, WWE especially. The Network has been fantastic for me, reliving loads of the older stuff. Â Last year's mania will take some topping. It was arguably their best ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Houchen Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Or Vince was feeding him lines to say like he does for the announce team. Yep, there is a section of the audience who wouldn't have known who Sting is, or of what he has done. Not everyone is a twenty thirty something.

Paid Members garynysmon Posted November 24, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted November 24, 2014 Would I be right in thinking that as his theme is featured on WWE 2k15, the WWE owns the rights to his proper WCW song anyway? I know there were certain issues with who owned some of the WCW themes during the changeover, but seemingly not this one then. Mind you, if the WWE were willing to fork out good money for CM Punk and The Undertaker to use a proper band song, they could have done the same for Sting and Metallica anyway.

MichaelMush Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Just looking at the Twitter top trends in the UK now. #SurvivorSeries, Sting, Ziggler, #TeamCena and then there was #CameronMustGo. At first I thought it was about the WWE diva (which sounds about right after how good she is in the ring) but it was about that plonker that's in charge of our country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's certainly not the general impression I get tbh, but fair play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
