In Sting, WWE has the rarest of opportunities. A star born and grown elsewhere comes ready-made, both established and novel. The company has so far maximized the asset that is Sting.
The dark vigilante has elevated the WWE's product with huge moments as it pushes toward a major Wrestle Mania match between him and Triple H. The second of those came on the last Raw before the Royal Rumble.
Monday's Raw looked as if it were going to end with another "John Cena overcomes the odds" story. It ended up being something far superior.
With his WWE title match on the line, with Dolph Ziggler, Ryback and Erick Rowan counting on him to get them reinstated, Cena had to battle not only Kane, Big Show and Seth Rollins but J&J Security at ringside and an angry tyrant in Triple H. As it turned out, this was not a means to make Cena look like Superman but to make Sting's debut more powerful.
Crows cawed. The Dallas crowd roared. Sting tore through the curtains.
