IGN interview with Sting:


http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/03...-undertaker-dream-match-and-retirement-rumors



IGN: Do you regret that Sting vs. Undertaker never happened? Or hasn't happened yet? Would you still like to face him?

Sting: Uh, yeah. I've been very outspoken about that. Still a dream of mine.

IGN: Obviously you want the match. And so do the fans. Why do you think you two would match up so well? And what would it mean for your legacies?

Sting: I remember years ago, it seemed to be a dream match. People were asking for it. Taker's character and mine - there are so many similarities. I mean, they're different, but there are also a lot of similarities. The mystique of both of us and all that. I just think that we could do some pretty cool stuff that would compliment each other. And it would be extremely entertaining. I've had these visions and these ideas in my head for a while. And, again, it's a dream still.

IGN: How do you feel about the two WWE PPV matches you've had and how they both went down?

Sting: Just fantastic. Awesome. Incredible. It was WrestleMania and Triple H. And a lot of fans, if I understand what you're trying to say here, sort of feel "Are you kind of disappointed that you lost two times?" No, I'm not. I look back and say "Wow, great opponent in Triple H. Biggest stage and platform of them all." You know, wrestling fans remember me wrestling there. I don't think they're walking away thinking it sucked because I should have won. Maybe for a minute. But more so they'll remember that I was at WrestleMania. And then to have a world title match against Seth? Wow. I've been world champion many times, so it didn't bother me.

IGN: Back to your Triple H match...what was it like to have the NWO come into the mix as well? Did that make it even better?

Sting: Absolutely. It was nostalgic all the way. For me and for the fans. Still, I've got fans coming up to me and saying "I'd never thought I'd see the day. I never believed it would actually happen. To see all you guys in there at the same time." See, Sting in WWE and at WrestleMania was already something they never thought they'd see. Now when you get NWO in there, and all the guys in there, all together at the same time? I did an autograph session a few days ago and so many people wanted me to sign the picture of all of us in the ring after the match. It's a good shot.

IGN: Now, there are a lot of rumors in wrestling. And one right now is that there may be a retirement announcement coming from you at some point. Any truth to that or is it just a rumor?

Sting: That is one of those rumors floating around, yes. [laughs] TMZ put something out and, again, I still have a dream inside of me. And it's not dead yet.

IGN: Many fans were worried about your health following your Night of Champions match with Rollins. How are you feeling now? Can you give us an update?

Sting: Yeah, I'm feeling completely normal. I'm hitting the gym. I'm training. I'm working out. I had a month or two of stiffness in the back of my neck. It's been a roller coaster ride. It just seems like there are so many conflicting reports from doctors. Even different opinions from wrestlers. About surgery. Daniel Bryan had the surgery. John Cena had the surgery. And some of the others too. And so it's like - wow! - what do you do? Don't have surgery unless you really have to. I don't have any side effects. I don't know. So for one minute there, after the match I thought "Okay, I gotta go have surgery." And as time went on, I was like "I'm not so sure I do." Even if I do, is it the right thing to do? Are there non-surgical methods that might be better? So the answer to you is that as long as I'm feeling good and mobile and in the gym, I'm just leaving it alone for now.

So Stang retiring was all lies? Does this mean he is going to be on Shane's side at HellCell? He'll come outta nowhere like the person we all know as Randall?

Watch Wrasslin'Mania 32 to find out, friends.

Right.

I think we've reached the point that we have to consider a conspiracy. Who is targeting the WWE superstars, and why?

It's time they bring in someone to get to the bottom of this.

Just a random thought here.. why did WWE fire Hulk Hogan for racist remarks, but Steve Austin still had a job after it came out that he committed domestic abuse multiple times against Debra? Was he reprimanded for it?

Wasn't that during the time where Austin took his ball and went home? Don't think he had a job around that time unless I'm misremembering. Still you have a point.

Yeah he came back, did one more Raw, and then bailed after they asked him to job to Brock on a random Raw with actually no build or hype.

And employ Michael Hayes


Here's why. WWE doesn't care. They encourage this shit. They only care when it creates a shitstorm. Bill DeMott was a piece of shit for years but it took viral internet for something to be done about it

Stone cold in 2003 had more value than hulk hogan in 2015
And America thankfully cares more in 2015 about all those sorts of conduct than it did in 2003, which means corporations have to care more (at the least for PR).

Austin would get booted today for doing what he did. At least temporarily.
