 Sting on Turning Down WWE's Offer for WM27 Posted by Steve Carrier on 04/01/2011 at 02:07 PM
- The Daily Star in the UK talked to TNA Champion Sting and UFC star Brock Lesnar about turning down offers from WWE to appear at WrestleMania 27. Here are their quotes:
Sting: I wouldnt say it was utter nonsense, thats not true! Its a dream match that fans would want to see. It was close. Im glad things turned out the way they did. There are so many variables. Lets just say that I turned it down for the same reasons I always have. Some- thing in me never trusted what would happen up there, based entirely on the track record with other WCW guys and everything that went on after Vince bought WCW. I wont be watching but Ill be asking what happened between Undertaker and Triple H."
Lesnar: "They were smart enough to know that I am deeply involved in UFC, what I am doing now. Wrestling doesnt affect my life so much. Im a fighter. The WWE will go on, and it will always be there, but I am in the UFC for as far as I can see. If ever there was an opportunity in the future to be on Wrestlemania, then I guess I have to say: Never say never."
