It has absolutely nothing to do with them wearing black, and everything to do with their longevity in the business. They are literally the last two of their kind, they both rose to prominence at roughly the same time, and each in one of the two biggest companies in the world. Undertaker never went to WCW (yes he was Mean Mark, but I'm talking about after he became relevant), and Sting never went to WWF. When guys would jump from one company to the other we saw the majority of our dream matches; Bret, Hogan, Savage, DDP, Goldberg, Nash, Hall, Big Show/Giant, Foley, Flair, Lex, Bulldog, Warrior etc all switched between companies and allowed us matches, or at least a deal of interaction with most of both of their biggest stars. Because Undertaker and Sting had stayed loyal to their respective companies, the match has never happened, everyone else from their era is gone, even The Rock and HHH are both guys who came into prominence nearly a decade after UT and Sting. This is literally the last dream match. Okay, well the wearing black comment wasn't a literal reason.. But on this forum I have seen absurd statements like that made in regards to why they should have a match.. Similar gimmicks and style has been used as a reason by members of this forum more than it should have. In 2001 everything you just said would have made total sense and I would be sold.. But going into 2015, it doesn't make any sense and I personally have no desire to see it.. AF makes a lot of sense and Word I see where you're coming from but please understand you're in the minority. They're the two last Outlaws. The two last legends. Sting and Taker aren't in movies. They didn't marry someone high up in the company to stay on TV. They're the last two of their kind who could still give millions of fans what they want. Sting wantscto wrestle Taker. Jim Ross wants it. A lot of wrestlers want it. Most fans want it. If Taker can do it, I'm sure he also wants it. That's probably why he hasn't ruled out wrestling again. Big meat head gave him a concussion. You're acting like if he falls wrong he'd never walk again. Newsflash: that could literally happen to anyone. The fact of the matter is it will draw. The whole thing people have against "part timers" and old guys is old, no pun intended. Its the wrestling business. The business where fans can see dream matches even if it takes years to happen. There's no one on today's roster, aside from Cena, who will ever be close to the legendary status of Taker and Sting. No matter how they're booked or pushed or anything. But it still all comes back to the fact that by not wanting to see this, that you're in the minority. A very, very small minority.

If he appears i hope he helps The Authority some way
For example Rollins & Cena are the only guys left and the Reff gets bumped some how which leads to Rollins trying to attack Cena with his Briefcase which gets interrupted by Sting who then attacks Cena to help Rollins to win the Match.
If it would happen it most likley would be the other way around but i really hope if he appears that this is the thing that happens !

What reason do they have to feud? They both wear black coats and are "dark and mysterious"? A Sting vs. Undertaker feud makes absolutely no sense.. What makes even less sense is The Undertaker showing up to simply stare Sting down, like he stole his TV or something and can't file charges. Anyone vs. Sting, that's fine.. But The Undertaker vs. Sting has never made any sense to me, yet internet fanboys drool over a potential showdown between the two. Internet logic: "They have alot in common, they should feud". The reason I want to see the match is simple. Undertaker is the heart and soul of the WWE and Sting was the heart and soul of WCW. The 2 men that represented their brands for years. Put their looks and gimmicks aside, no one meant more to their respective brands than these two. When I think of guys who are the heart and soul of the WWF/E, I think of Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold, John Cena or even Shawn Michaels, but certainly not Undertaker.

This is kind of sad.... If Sting shows up tonight I can see WFigs exploding!!! Just to much for it to take. Sting finally debuts in the WWE and its just to much for Wfigs to take. So in a way I kind of hope he doesnt show up because I enjoy this message board. I kind of feel the way i felt on December 31st 1999... This could be the end.....

I like how when we discuss Undertaker, we get to ignore the fact he was Mean Mark saying "he wasnt relevant" yet he frequently had matches with the World, US, TV and Tag Champions while in WCW. However, when we bring up someone like Mankind, Triple H or DDP who spent the majority of their WCW Careers on Worldwide we can say "we've already seen that schtick". Simply put, Ive seen Taker vs Sting nearly 25 years ago. They were in their 20s & in shape...Now, neither are in shape, both get gassed after about 10 minutes and yet everyone is oozing themselves to see it. Why? You're begging 2 50yos who cant work anymore to get in the ring, yet every other 50yo from the past years (Hogan, Flair, Warrior etc) you blew up and ridiculed cause they were too old and couldnt go anymore.

Because that's hilarious Yeah...that makes sense, because Hogan left for wcw, stone cold walked out, and Shawn Michaels was notoriously obnoxious. Undertaker has always been loyal to wwe and has delivered consistent, quality matches since his debut. Taker IS wwe.

The one constant among all those men, The Underaker. He's was there during the federation years, the new generation, attitude era, ruthless aggression, and even now in the reality era, The Undertaker is still synonymous with WWE.

You see, this is the thing about Sting..... he's old.
He's 55 years old, I don't care to see him in a WWE ring now. Just give him the HOF at Wrestlemania 31 and that's perfect!

Expect a Shield like run in consisting of Sting, Hogan and Nash. Then expect Nash to fall and tear his quad within a second. Quad jokes were funny about 12 years ago, not so much now. Quad jokes are a huge meme on Meme Gene Okerlund

"Age is just a letter". Seriously if he can go, who cares how old he is? I'd rather see a 60 year old that can go than a 20 year old that can't.

Sting's last year in TNA was an absolute disaster and an embarrassment of his career. He shouldn't be in the WWE as an active performer.
