Exactly. The whole point was to have him go against the streak. it would have been the ultimate match up. Now there is kinda nothing for him to do. If they still booked an Undertaker match there would really be no excitement. It would just be an old man match.

Oh man, forgot all about this one. The Hurricane was dope too.
Fuck you, Sunny. Denzel is badass.
He's getting fat but he doesn't do shit. Last time I went to Smackdown he was in the merch truck signing autographs. And he wasn't even on the show!

I mean, you COULD build a feud with Taker for the next Mania without the streak, with Sting. Just to see "who's better" etc. It's not ideal though, and wouldn't live up to the hype. I don't think the streak is necessary for a Sting/Taker match, but it helps a HELL of a lot.
He's been given tons of mic opportunities at commentary and he's been totally mute. He looks more nervous than a new inmate.

Wow. So hes got nothing to give?
He can't go out like Flair?
I know he been apathetic the last decade, but I didn't know everyone lost love and respect for him.
I guess I should move on from my 1997 rose colored glasses.
Denzel was awesome in Flight. Awesome.
A man called sting..............a man called sting!

Man, I watched that shit and I never even saw him! I kept waiting to see if he'd show up and he never did. Stupid-ass movie. Fucking tightropes.

Even greats like Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro started doing shitty movies late in their careers just to get paid. But I can't hold that against them and say they're shitty actors when they're obviously just doing this acting thing now just to get dat paper. Applies to Denzel as well as many others.
Uh, prison inmates aren't just black, dude.
I will answer this once I've had a good nights sleep, it will come to me in a vision.
If you only watch Raw, sure.
Even without his WCW career Flair still had some kind of relevance to WWF/WWE's history. To a ton of casual WWE fans and anyone who wasn't a fan during the attitude era, Sting is an unknown.
But really, the Undertaker ship sailed a few years ago when the last real Sting-to-WWE rumor happened (remember, where Sting ended up wrestling stoned Jeff Hardy while Taker was having legendary matches)

I like Brad Maddox a lot.
Spider from Mars
tap that thorax
I just also had this vision in my head of Lesnar fighting Sting and destroying another icon. I think that should be Lesnar's new gimmick.

A wrestling dream?
It was but no one believes that Randy could destroy anyone.

I guess it really depends on what character they're trying to put over. So far, it's been "no character really" - he had some personality when it was the Ziggler/AJ/BigE crew but since then? He's just been...there. So we'll have to see.

The new legend killer. That's what I was going for. People would pay for that match just to see how badly Sting would get messed up.
I had a dream about Maryse recently. Luckily the Miz was not in it.

Madox has the total package
He's a generic create-a-wrestler power guy right now with as much personality as an unsalted pretzel. Either make him a monster or allow him to express himself freely. Stop giving us someone we can't invest in emotionally.

Axel was never really given a chance. He was buried by Triple H less than five minutes into his main roster career.

He was a great commentator. Way better than anyone else they put up on that desk
So did Yoshi Tatsu! Smart move, Vince. Protect Neville and Zayn in NXT by having Yoshi be the one to get dumped over the top rope.

Didn't CM Punk say he kept trying to hook up with Gail Kim at some resort they were at?

Yoshi lasted what, 15 seconds? If even that? What a goddamn shame...

The NFL is full of wrestling marks. Unfortunately that does not always translate to good vibes on say ESPN and such. Yeah you got Cena,, and D.Bry was on there, but overall they don't respect the business. Probably never will.
