This. His whole contract was constructed around this match. People who think he was screwed over are being over the top. I was very surprised Sting didn't win, it seemed he would. I see the point they were projecting and drawing parallels of WCW Vs WWE. Also, HHH was one of the guys he WANTED to work with. Sting got an epic entrance. The crowd behind him and a nostalgic feel. I'm okay with the outcome. The outcome only makes sense if the Sting/Triple H feud continues. If Sting doesn't ever show up again when Triple H is abusing his power, then this entire thin was for nothing and it accomplished nothing. Shaking Sting's hand and then burying him an hour later didn't make any sense. Shaking Sting's hand and ending the feud only make sense if Triple H ends the authority and turns face....otherwise Sting should either A) Continue to go after Triple H, or B) Like I said this whole thing was for nothing and accomplished nothing and the only purpose that this served was WWE putting the screws to the one WCW guy they never managed to get. Last night was basically Sting being ok with the fact that Triple H cheated, had 4 guys interfere on his behalf, and then crack him in the head with a sledgehammer....why would Sting shake his hand? In kayfabe and in real life, nothing that happened last night made sense. Like I said, it was basically just WWE reenacting themselves winning the Monday Night War at Sting's expense. Stuff like this was exactly what he was worried about for 14 years and I don't understand how he agreed to that. Triple H saying he beat Sting is burying him? Are you for ing real?

I've come across three of his posts in the last couple minutes, I've learned my lesson to just roll my eyes and continue on.

You know, I was expecting something a little different after DX and NWO were fighting each other.
I was thinking, "I know what'll happen. This is brilliant! You have members of the Kliq on both sides. Why in the blue hell would Nash and Hall oppose HHH and side with Sting?" *Obviously you could explain that they were fighting for WCW, but the Kliq were like brothers, so it didn't make sense to me*
I continue... "This means DX and NWO will square off in the ring, both sides flanking their dude. BUT THEN, Hall and Nash will turn on Hogan and Sting, beating them down and signifying the Kliq is the superpower here. Road Dogg, and Gunn leave the ring. The Kliq hugs, high fives and does the horns gesture. But all of a sudden, Hulk begins to Hulk up, Sting does his version, and they put the beats in on the Kliq. Sting hits the Scorpion Death Drop on HHH, then the Deathlock. Trips taps and that was all she wrote! Brilliant! Well done WWE!"
So that's what I expected. Did it happen? Did it f***...
Instead we get Sting lose in perhaps the biggest match in his career, after months of build up - with this being a MUST-WIN, only to sully the feud with a handshake. Make sense much?
Anyway, the whole thing does deserve its praise. The entrances were amazing, the match was great (seeing Sting in action again, diving to the outside...), and the run ins and surprise NWO was awesome. Everything was almost perfect... until Trips won. No need to explain why that was dumb.
However I really enjoyed it.

After that match last night, I can only hope Sting goes away. Watching him struggle to keep Triple H in the Deathlock was sad to see. I'm aware he's in his mid-50s and to me it showed. The thought of him and Taker having a match (which everyone wants for some reason) is abysmal. Taker too showed the wear and tear last night. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but it seemed like Taker didn't even want to be there. Just going through the few motions he can still do to be the 'Mania attraction. Obviously no one is forcing him to keep competing so he must still want to do it, but still.

As for Sting, I thought he did well considering he hadn't wrestled in well over a year.

Rematch against HHH with control of the company on the line...If Sting wins he becomes the new authority figure. He gets to take everything away from HHH and Stephanie the same way WCW was taken from him.

Yall get to caught up in this stuff. You guys don't work for the wwe, I don't work for the wwe. Idk understand how people can say sting was screwed and they did this to him blah blah blah
You don't think they worked on this since November? Im sure they had the winner planned way In advanced but the actions in the match aka the nwo and dx were probably last minute.
Sting wouldn't just let wwe walk over him like that. I'm sure he was in agreement with all this and if he wasn't it wouldn't have went down. Everyone that's pissed about this is just mad that sting didn't win. Bc that's what they wanted.
Like I said sting was obviously in agreement and sure as hell is probably proud of his performance and the outcome last night. I love how everyone makes a big stink like they know him personally or know the wwe and inside the board room personally.
It's a tv show. Storylines,. Just let it play out without freaking out lol.

I doubt we ever see Sting again. I honestly think they screwed him. I think they lured him into this company so that they could put the screws to the very last WCW guy they never were able to bury. Because Sting was the heart and soul of WCW and as long as he never did business with WWE, a little part of WCW was still alive and untouched. So I think they lured him in with the promises of a big payday and main stream exposure, they probably promised him Undertaker next year, and probably told him he was going to win the match at first. I seriously think the finish of that match was changed the day of Wrestlemania. None of this DX/nWo stuff was ever eluded to in the build up, and the first time we heard of it being a no DQ match was when Lilian Garcia said it moments before the match. Sting resisted coming to WWE for 14 years because he was worried about how they would use him....how he allowed last night to happen is beyond me. If he was going to come to WWE and LOSE at Wrestlemania, he should have just lost to The Undertaker LAST NIGHT. Realistically, the was no reason for Undertaker/Bray Wyatt to fight, and all it did was hurt Bray. We'll probably never see Sting again in WWE. Before Mania yesterday they probably told him that plans changed, Triple H was going over, WM32 was off the table, and tonight was it. He couldn't refuse to work or he'd get sued and lose all that money, so it was what it was. I truly believe that. I see no other reason why any of this happened. He could have come in and got buried 14 years ago, and he would have had a long enough WWE career after that to where he would have been able to eventually be on top, like Jericho and Booker T. Last night was not the payoff that I've been waiting for these past 14 years. He didn't have to do that match? He obviously knew months ago that he was going to be losing to Triple H... He could have said no and quit

I love how Vince says that TNA isn't competition, yet pretends it doesn't exist. McMahon logic. *COUGH* *COUGH* Oh come on... it was! (WWE's words, not mine... ) Fair dues. I wouldn't expect WWE to ever admit that WCW had a bigger match for Sting than facing Triple H.

If the feud continues then last nights decision to have Triple H win at Wrestlemania becomes even more stupid. If they're going to go 1-1 then why didn't Sting just get the win on Sunday? I definitely think something changes late on, as they made it clear that this feud was about Triple H & Sting, not WWE vs WCW. Yet the Match was exactly the opposite, and a way to get cheap pops from the run downs. I know it wasn't going to match Orton vs Rollins by going on straight after which may have had something to do with the way it turned out.

Sting wanted a match against Taker at WM. So obviously he wasn't worried about if he won or lost. Triple H helped Sting have a very entertaining match and the longest match on the card. Had we gotten Sting vs Taker both would have been gassed within minutes. It would have been much slower. But even if Taker had defeated Sting clean, there would be far less complaining than there is today.
The handshake was probably just Triple H showing respect for Sting being able to hang in the longest match of the night at 56 years of age. Nothing wrong with showing respect to your opponent.
JR chimed in on the match...

They booked themselves into a corner by making the story about WWE vs. WCW...again.
Also, I assume they want Triple H to look strong for when he faces The Rock next year.
I literally have no clue where Sting goes from here.
