Sting is, it still seems the most sensible option to build to a debut via a promo video. This was the same scenario WWE ran with Bill Goldberg back in 2003, they showed a career highlight package at Mania 19 and then had him come out on Raw the next night to spear The Rock.

Perhaps what we will see this year will involve a Sting video promo at Mania, with him coming out the next night on Raw to meet The Undertaker in the ring. This is the match WWE are reportedly planning for WrestleMania 31 and there’s little doubt that promoting it a year out would be a good idea. That way the WWE can build up anticipation in a way that’s different from their usual Taker streak match, Sting vs Undertaker needs to be built up as something special.

In other news about WrestleMania 30, the planned card order is Shield vs Kane and Outlaws as the opener with the closing bouts being Cena vs Wyatt, Lesnar vs Undertaker, the diva invitational and finally the two Daniel Bryan matches. The Figure Four Newsletter goes on to comment that a stipulation is expected to be added to the Bryan vs Hunter match. This could be a submission or no-dq, and it should add a nice extra flavour to the overall card.

Sort of devalues Taker v Brock tonight lol. Fuck Sting if he gets to face the Streak instead of Bray next year.

I'm sort of on the fence about this whole Sting in WWE/facing Taker situation. I could see it being really good or really bad.

Really don't see Bray going for the Streak next year. Or ever, really.

Why? Their gimmicks are really similar. And Bray is being pushed as the top heel. If anyone is going to break the streak (and obviously no one should) it would be Bray.

Sting will be 56 by next year lol fuck his old ass

I hate this idea that people have that nobody should break the streak.

WWE has the biggest way of putting someone over in the history of wrestling and people think they should just not do it, so a 60 year old dude can have a little streak? nonsense.

Didn't say it doesn't make sense. I just don't see WWE doing it. Sting and/or Cena then probably retirement.

I'm still on the side of the fence that says the streak should be ended to put someone who looks in line to be in the business way over for A LONG time aka Tyler Breeze :)

I could go Lockard and write an essay on why it shouldn't be broken but it's Mania night so I'm just gonna relax

IMO it just has to be a heel. As cool as it would be to see the "next top face" take down the streak in a sort of passing of the torch in a feud built on respect, I think their is too great a chance that the crowd would turn on the babyface and support Taker. So a heel like Wyatt would be ideal to end it.

By my watch there are like 4 hours until the show starts so why not at least give me some bullet points there slick?

I wouldn't be opposed, Wyatt's comfortable in his gimmick, he's only 26 years old and he's looking to be in the business awhile, even if the Wyatt Family goes down in flames; there's always his real life brother Bo Dallas to have a storyline with if they ever ran out of ideas for Bray, he would be probably my top selection if I'm being truly honest about who should break it.
