WrestlingRevealed.com has learned that WWE will be releasing a Sting DVD at the end of 2008.

This bit of news comes with quite a bit of speculation.

First of all, it’s impressive that this is finally being done. Sting is a true legend in wrestling. He absolutely deserves to be honored with a DVD.

The thing that has led a lot of people to speculate over Sting is the fact that he has yet to sign a contract with TNA. He has agreed to a new deal that will keep him in TNA through 2008. This has caused people to assume that WWE will try to sneak in and sign Sting.

However, the chances of Sting signing with WWE is very minimum. He’s got a great deal with TNA in that he’s getting paid six figures for working a few days a month. It’s unlikely that WWE would bring him in and allow him to work a schedule like that. Only Shawn Michaels and the Undertaker have that privilege right now.

The DVD itself should be pretty good. WWE owns the NWA and WCW footages, and that covers most of Sting’s accomplishments. He’s had some great moments in TNA, but WWE can still fill up a DVD with his greatest moments. In fact, if they really wanted to, they could even split the DVD into two parts; his WCW days and his NWA days.

If you want to see some of Sting’s greatest moments in TNA, there’s already a Sting DVD on the market. The DVD is called TNA Wrestling Sting - Return of an Icon DVD.

Reports are coming out of TNA that Sting is close to signing a new contract that will keep him in the company through 2008.

That’s good news for TNA. Sting still has enough star power to provide TNA with some credibility. Plus, he’s still recognizable enough to where casual wrestling fans will check out the show. Sting also provides a veteran presence in the locker room as many have stated that he’s constantly suggesting to the writing staff to utilize him to elevate the younger talent.

This is also good news for Sting. It is rumored that TNA is willing to pay him $500,000. That salary is especially high when you consider that Sting basically works 5 days a month. He also has enough say in how his character is portrayed, which is a huge reason why he refuses to sign with WWE.
