Maybe if Vince had treated him a little bit better while he was there, we'd still have him licensed. If I were Sting I would never do business with Vince ever again. I think Sting cares much more about his "Legacy" than Vince ever did. Sting brought his Legacy to WWE and Vince crapped all over it. Vince could have kept Sting in the fold but they didn't even try. Not even a little bit. They brought him in, milked him for losses to HHH and Seth Rollins, and sent him on his way. Would YOU stay? I see what you're doing, but Triple H isn't completely innocent here; Triple H buried Sting. Just like Triple H buried Booker T..... Goldberg..... Scott Steiner.... He took the big 'Mania "W" over Sting in Sting's ONLY EVER Wrestlemania match. He was a big part of ruining Sting's only Wrestlemania Moment. To top it off? Sting only wanted ONE BIG MATCH when he came to WWE..... The Undertaker. And WWE wouldn't even give him that. And almost 10 years later? As a life-long Sting Fan, I'm still more mad about ALL OF THAT than I am about not getting any more Mattel Sting figures. |

I'm happy about Ron Simmons since I wasn't able to get him the first time around.

I'm not saying triple h may or may not have had a hand in it. But something tells me Vince wanted his top guy to bury WCW. I don't believe triple h himself went around to Vince saying he needs to bury them. Nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to Vince. |

You don't think Triple H had enough "pull" to say "hey this is Sting's night." Do you think he even tried? I'm especially doubtful especially after he ran over all the other WCW guys before Sting. |

WWE greatest hits 7 Batista Hogan Ron Simmons Rey Mysterio Rollins Undertaker Source: German leaks Hopefully Simmons is a repaint in purple. Not sure what Hogan figs are left that are needing a re-release. HOF? E91? If so, hopefully not with that type of shirt. American Made also could use a re-release but that’ll likely be a RSC Vault and also would need an updated shirt. I want the HOF figure re-done, but I figure that gets a vault release with maybe the black eye head and a soft goods shirt? I'm really curious as to which Undertaker is going to be in this set too. |

I think the mindset was that since the plan was gonna be HHH vs Rock or HHH/Steph vs Rock/Rousey the next year that Hunter had to look strong and needed the win more. That sounds like both HHH and Vince booking. |

The Summerslam ABA (not RSC’s) or either one of the Big Evils are my guesses. |

I think, ideas might have been thrown around. At the end of the day sting knew the outcome so he had to have agreed to it of some sorts. Im not saying trips is a saint, but he's a guy that you use to get the job done no questions asked. Undertaker could have buried sting, but taker isn't like that, triple h, is "f*** it I'll do it" type of guy. He always has been. Good or bad. |

Wow some people in this thread are really weird, not everything in the world revolves around action figures. Sting felt he got treated poorly in WWE, had an underwhelming run, goes to AEW and has a great run, gets an amazing send off. Why wouldn’t he just stay with the company that treated him amazing, why would he run back to WWE? Use your brain folks
