UPDATE: WWE’s plan for Survivor Series last
night was to push the WWE Network and show that anything can happen in WWE and
anyone can show up on the Network. This is why Sting finally appeared on screen
and why WWE announced both Dean Ambrose vs. Bray Wyatt at TLC and the
Austin/Vince interview next week.
It’s believed that Sting also showed up to help promote WWE 2K15,
which was released not long before the PPV happened. Finally, it’s possible that
WWE added Sting’s name into the script earlier in the show (it was previously
reported as happening right before or right after the Divas elimination match)
in order to keep his main event appearance a secret.
ORIGINAL: As many of you know by now, Sting
officially made his debut at the WWE Survivor Series pay-per-view on Sunday
night.
According to sources, WWE flew Sting into Kansas, MO from Dallas,
TX on Sunday morning as they wanted to hide him from fans who were waiting at
the airport to meet WWE Superstars. The company then had a limo waiting for him
in Kansas City, MO and drove him to St. Louis for the pay-per-view. He was kept
hidden backstage during the afternoon and evening hours.
Additionally,
Sting wasn’t notified that he’d be appearing at Survivor Series until late last
week. WWE officials called him on Wednesday or Thursday and told him he was
needed for the pay-per-view. He was promoting WWE 2K15 on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday of last week and was unaware at that point that he’d be making his
debut at Survivor Series.
The original plans called for Stung to appear
either before or after the Divas Elimination tag-team match. Obviously, those
plans changed and he was involved in the main event instead.
As of last
word, Sting was not expected to appear at this week’s TV tapings but that may
have changed by now.
There are plans to have him wrestle in WWE and
although it seemed like they were going to do a Triple H vs. Sting match, plans
were still calling for a Sting vs. Undertaker match at WrestleMania 31 as of
this weekend. John Cena vs. Triple H is also rumored with a possible stipulation
that if John Cena loses, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon will be brought back to
TV. Could Sting be the one to set that up? That remains to be seen. Nonetheless,
The Authority will be back on TV before WrestleMania 31.
We’ll keep you
posted as we hear more.
