Sting On Nearly Working An Angle With Steve Austin

Jun 1, 2015

DK Publishing and WWE recently released the “WWE: Attitude Era” book. WhatCulture.com has a new article up today about one of the stories from the book, which features Sting talking about nearly signing with WWE in 2003.

“I had been negotiating with Vince [McMahon], and one of the ideas was for me to debut at the end of WrestleMania XIX and confront ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin,” Sting said in the book. “Negotiations fell apart and it never happened, but it makes you wonder, ‘What if?'”

Sting continued, “That was one of the times I was talking with Vince, and it would’ve been an incredible night that would’ve translated into some major, major rivalries and match-ups for years to come.”
