In a recent interview, former WCW and current TNA Hall of Famer Sting answered some questions pertaining to the WWE. They are as follows,
On rumors of him working against the Undertaker at Wrestlemania 27: “Over the last few years those rumors have gotten stronger. I do an annual contract every year and the rumors start right around January. The year that they did the (black and white) vignette, I had nothing to do with it and I had no conversations with the WWE at that time. Shortly afterward there were conversations (with WWE) just by happenstance, but nothing official.”
On being open to work in the WWE: “It’s no secret. I’ve always wanted to wrestle Undertaker; I’ve said that for years. And who would not want to work Wrestlemania?”
On whether he was ever close to working with the WWE right after the WCW purchase: “No… I’ve always described that day as being surreal and a very tough thing to swallow. I had 18 months left on my (WCW) contract that AOL had to honor, and there was never any conversation at that time. The first time I talked to them was 5 years later. Vince McMahon called me and we talked for a week, and it was very, very close. That was the time that I decided to make one final run and I decided to make it with TNA.”
