WWE and Sting are finally doing business together, and that's a good thing. But that still leaves fans only hungrier for the next thing. They're wondering if he will sign a talent deal. They're wondering if he'll get to realize the collective dream of putting on the fantasy match of a lifetime with Undertaker at Wrestlemania. They're wondering if he'll step into the ring at all, let alone how many times and against whom. Right now, there is a wild rumor that a deal could be signed by SummerSlam on August 17. While there is no evidence to back that up, reports say that he will be in LA for the event, likely to do promotional activity for the 2K15 video game and new action figure.
In recent interview with Grantland.com's The Masked Man, Sting was asked how it felt to finally be part of WWE (via Grantland):
"It's an honor. It's something I always hoped I could do - to somehow or another be a part of the WWE family in some capacity. And here I am."
When asked about appearing on WWE television, he was slightly more cryptic:
"I'll just say that I'm all in and very willing to participate. Believe me."
Even though nothing is finalized, fans assume (in other words, hoping and praying) that the Stinger will eventually sign a talent deal. The question is simply when.
Rumors are swirling that it might be sooner rather than later (via Cage Side Seats):
"... The omnipresent sources within WWE told the Observer that there is hope they can get a talent deal signed by SummerSlam. The feeling is that he has more buzz surrounding his partnership with the company than The Ultimate Warrior did at this same time last year under similar circumstances, and Vince McMahon and team want to capitalize on that."
