Sting to feature in WWE 2K15

Sting is a pre-order exclusive character in WWE 2K15

 

WCW, TNA and WCW legend Sting has been confirmed as a pre-order exclusive character in WWE 2K15. The game's developers 2K Sports confirmed the presence of Sting in their new game, through their Twitter page on Monday.

 

 

 

Sting is a fifteen-time World Heavyweight Champion, having held the titles with NWA, WCW, WWA and the TNA. Though he is not contracted to WWE, the 6 feet 2 wrestler has made a few appearances for them. Most notably being in the final episode of WCW Monday Nitro on March 26, 2001 against Ric Flair.

Since taking over WCW, WWE has named the Nebraska-born wrestler as the greatest superstar in the WCW era. The 55-year-old in recent years, has gone on to establish himself as a TNA legend. Total Nonstop Action inducted him into their Hall of Fame in June 2012.

The move by WWE 2K15, could see paving a way for Sting's entry into WWE. For new generation of wrestling fans, it would also intorduce them to one of wrestling's legends. Last year WWE 2K14 had introduced the character of Ultimate Warrior, that garnered praises from critics and fans alike.

Sting has won the WCW World Heavyweight Championship six times

 

Sting has never made a foray into the WWE ring. He was a star with WCW and NWA in the late 80's and 90's. A seven-time World Heavyweight Champion during that time, Sting refused to join WWE when they took over WCW in 2001.

But the wrestling veteran may have hinted at a possible WWE appearance on his twitter page. He had just posted the date 07.14.14, maybe talking about coming on WWE Monday Night Raw on the same date.
