Rollins is already doing well, it's not like a loss to 'STING' fucking... 'STING' would hurt the guys career. If you wanna protect the guy, do it this way;

Triple H puts Rollins in two matches at NOC. Rollins vs Cena for US title and Rollins vs Sting for WWE title.

Rollins loses to Cena after a hard fought battle, which exhausts Rollins. A banged up Rollins then takes on Sting later in the night, in which Sting wins the WWE World Title.

This will lead to Rollins face turn, as Sheamus goes onto be Triple H pet project and centerpiece of The Authority.


Sting will add ratings, and the much needed starpower for the title since Lesnar. Besides, come on guys, Sting as champion for a career like his... does he deserve it for not coming to WWE for so long? probably not. But I don't care, Sting is a main eventer at the end of the day!

It is terrible. Sting should be retired, exactly like the Undertaker.

It makes no sense that in 2015 we are dealing with stars from the past. Sting ? Really ? The guy would die mid-air from the emotion of coming down from the rafters. The title belongs to Seth or to another superstar, WWE needs to make market studies, crowd reactions are misleading..

LMAO. The vigilante Stong looks and moves better than half of the roster.

I want people to tell me why Sting shouldn't win the title without using his age and part timer as a reason

Same here. He's in great shape, can still go, and after his loss at Wrestlemania, if he is still sticking around, then this would be the perfect way to build him up again.

It would also end his career on a well deserved high.

The nostalgia side of me is all for Stinger having a reign before he hangs up the boots. However, when things like this happen with part timers; I can't help but recall how CM Punk took issue with it a few years ago. I get it, it's awesome to see icons to the business in the ring, but, what about building up the talent you do have--of which a majority is so poorly used it really is sad. The WWE has some incredible wrestlers (male and female) that are full timers that really should be invested in. I'm all for remembering the past, history is important, however, to sacrifice the future never sounds like a good idea. Whatever happens, happens...I just wish they'd move on and look down the road a bit further. I can see shades of legendary tag teams and individuals across this current roster and that's awesome. Hell, I love when either does a move in honor of a legend, e.g. a Frog Splash or Macho's elbow drop--it's, for me, more exciting to pay homage to the greats. If you want a nostalgia trip, that's what the Royal Rumble is for...

Hell no. They have been building Rollins up all this time to lose to some 55 year old guy? Thats why they dont make new stars. You didnt see Cena losing to old guys between 2005 and 2011. I hope Rollins beats Sting and goes on all the way to wm 32 as champ and defeats the rock or hhh. He can then drop the belt to bray wyatt,reigns or some other young guy not sting. If sting wants a title you could have him take it from Taker or Cena or whoever at some point just not Rollins.

Screw that "but he's a legend" crap, how many people were complaining about Brock's title run just because he didn't show up every week on Raw?
Except Sting's not gonna hold the belt for 7 straight months.

Football season's coming up. Ratings are already terrible. Rollins' reign has been atrocious and arguably a complete failure. They gotta build towards 32. Don't act like this company will bankrupt itself if the Icon holds the belt for a short time. Hogan beat HHH for the Undisputed title a month after H won it from Jericho; do you guys not remember that? They survived.

How did Sting get behind that display curtain? When did he get behind it? How long was he stood back there not doing anything just waiting for the curtain to be lifted? If he had prepared this entrance so far in advance and clearly cared for the dramatics of it so much, why did he just turn up in a T-shirt and not his badarse longcoat? He must have known it'd be more than just Rollins in the ring, so why not bring his baseball bat with him? How did he keep his balance and not once make the curtain move when it was being transported to the ring and having the wires to lift it hooked up? If he was sat down to avoid any possible revealing tumbled during the movement to the ring, how did he know when to stand up to avoid looking like he'd been caught short? How did not one of the guys doing that set-up notice him? How did none of them notice that the solid bronze statue was suddenly massively lighter than it should be? For that matter, if the statue was so heavy that it needed a forklift and a team of guys to get it into the ring, how did Sting get the statue off the platform and stash it somewhere out of sight by himself? Where did he hide it? Did nobody at any point see it or see him doing it? Did he wear a disguise when he did it so even if someone did notice they wouldn't report to Triple H immediately that Sting was in the arena fucking with the statue? Are they currently looking for it? It must have been put somewhere, they wouldn't just forget about it so are they going to have a proper unveiling next week on RAW?

These kinds of questions are bugging me about that whole segment.

Everybody complaining about Sting and part timers - with Daniel Bryan out injured there really nobody on the current roster that's super over and can carry the title.

Brock - part timer people complain
Seth - full time people saying his title reign is the worst ever
KO, Wyatt & Rusev - heels' and they've already been squashed by Cena
Ceasaro & Neville - good in ring skills but no charisma/mic skills
Stardust Barrett & Ryback - midcarders probaly wont be in the mainevent scene again
Ziggler Sheamus & Miz - already had title runs, werent that great
Big Show & Kane - need to retire
Orton & Cena - multi time champs already, they would just be repeating a same old boring storyline

Ambrose & Reigns are probaly the next babyfaces in line to win the belt, but they seem hesitant on Ambrose & Reigns just got boo'ed at 3 out of the top 4 PPVs

I read the word ''charity'' two or three times in this topic.

So you think ting went to HHH and asked him for a title reign because he's insecure...?
:ha :tysonlol

You don't understand there's something called RESPECT.
HHH respect Sting because he was the biggest rival of WOOO! his idol.

I know Sting was born in 1918 or something... but the thing is WWE is the biggest wrestling company of the world the have TONS OF MONEY, and even if WWE would go bankrupt next month because of Sting's fault wrestling will never die.
Vince and HHH know it, and they maybe want to give him a run with it so they can say he got the WWE title in his hands, because you know... they wanted Sting to be in WWE for years.

I'm not gonna lie, if Sting wins the WWE WHC on Night Of Champions I will mark out like a little bitch.

BUT part of me believes WWE will use this match to put over Seth Rollins, even tough he will probably will not retain the title clean. Also the match is intended to make Sting credible to the eyes of the WWE Universe members who either don't know who he is or never saw him in his heyday.

Look, it's clear we will have finally the Sting/Undertaker match down the line, but after his loss at WM 31 The Stinger needs to be build as a threat to The Undertaker; a good showing agaisnt Rollins in NOC can do that.

Other escenario is IF Sting wins the WWE WHC probably Sheamus will cash on him, then Sheamus can drop the title in a Triple Threat match (Sheamus vs Sting vs Rollins) on the next PPV, Seth regains the title and Sting faces Sheamus a single match where ting can submit make Sheamus submit for the first time, he gets a win over a moderately credible upper midcarder.

This is true.

I remember Sting's promo on the Raw before WrestleMania. He specifically said this is not WWE vs. WCW because that would be pointless at this point. And their match turns into WWE vs. WCW at WrestleMania. Ugh. Even JBL's cringeworty line at the end "We won again, they lost." They just can't let shit go sometimes.

But I am pretty confident at the moment Sting walks out of NOC with the belt. My fantasy booking guess at the moment is that HHH accidentally costs Rollins the belt.

The thought of Sting being champion for even 1 second puts a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach.

Having the top heel lose the world title to a nostalgia act is terrible idea any way you try to spin it. Yet it wouldn't surprise me if it happened.

I don't really understand anyone saying Sting 'deserves' to be champion. Maybe it's because I don't care for nostalgia acts. What does he deserve it for though? For waiting over a decade to sign with WWE because he didn't trust Vince with his character? For losing to Triple H at Wrestlemania? For what he did in WCW? At least guys like Eddie & Benoit accomplished things in WWE before they became champions late in their career. They weren't special event circus side shows when they won either. A 56 year old man would be winning the world title in his second match in WWE. Might as well bring Flair out of retirement, rehire Hogan & have a triple threat for the title.

People want to use his legacy as a reason to explain why he deserves a world title reign. If his legacy is that great, then I could argue a loss against Seth won't hurt him either, especially if it isn't clean. Anyone who would think less of Sting because he lost 2 matches in dirty fashion at this point in his career are idiots. Losing to Seth would hurt Sting as much as losing to Bray would have hurt Taker at WM31. Hopefully WWE doesn't make the same stupid mistake this time around. Would Seth still call himself 'the man' on the post PPV RAW if Sting takes the title off him like Bray still called himself the 'new face of fear'? fpalm

What good does some cheap transitional run with the title get Sting? Saying he got to be paper champion for a month or less? Put a feather in his cap!
What good does losing do for Seth? He already might lose the US title to Cena earlier that same night. Then he loses the world title to a bag of bones. I don't think Seth is turning face anytime soon either. I have a hard time believing Triple H would turn on Seth for losing the title after holding it for 6 months. Why would he turn on Seth? Why would he favor Sheamus over Seth? Because he said he was a real man when he returned a couple months ago? As soon as that would happen, Sheamus would just take Seth's place as a chicken heel, albeit a less convincing one.

I've already accepted that if Seth retains, he'll need help against that geriatric. So what could it be?
Triple H interferes?
Brock helps in exchange for a rematch with Taker?
Taker 'owes' the Authority a favor for Summerslam?
Hell, I wouldn't even care if Flair got involved if it meant Seth retained. Flair might have been pulling for Cena to win the title, but maybe he would have a problem with his old rival Sting winning it.
I'm grasping for straws at this point.

Btw, what's the point of Sting being invovled anyways? He lost to Triple H at WM and shook the man's hand afterwards. He already cost Rollins the win at Survivor Series. Now he steals the man's statue, ruins his celebration by attacking him & wants to take his championship. Is that really Sting or is it Adam Rose, cuz that guy is a party pooper.

Let's get real here though, Rollins title reign has been a wet fart thus far, the fans are genuinely interested and love Sting, him winning the title will likely lead to more attention on the product which is a good thing. The story line could lead to the Rollins face turn, all sorts of good things in fact.

Sting deserves a title run namely because it will lead to more business, fans that don't watch but used to during the Monday night wars will inevitably want to see what happens. Also the guy is charismatic as hell, Rollins is more of an enhancement talent anyways, the guy who makes the top guy look good. If he is as good as they say, then he should have no problem making Sting look presentable.

If you want another example of why Sting's reign would be great - those opening segments on RAW will actually be entertaining for once. No more 15 minute segment of Rollins putting people to sleep. Sting isn't a great wrestler at his age, but he more then makes up for that with his promo skills.

As for him losing to HHH and then getting a world title shot, yes that's just sloppy writing, but the reality is that it's still a very interesting match. I think you could argue that with pretty much all of the PPV matches Rollins has had, the interest has been generated by his opponents more so then him.

And many promotions have done this type of angle where the old guy comes back and proves to the heel baby face that he still has what it takes and wins the title. ECW in particular did this with Terry Funk and I never see anyone shit on that angle. Why? Because it was friggin epic. It old a great story, and this feud has the potential to do the exact same thing.
