its all about who puts on the better show, better gimmick, and Sting, by far has the better gimmick.....i think it really comes down to if you were a WCW/NWO or WWF/WWE guy in the 90's.....i was a WCW guy, and i have a feeling that the Taker is gonna get a black bat to the dome

Sting doesn't have the better gimmick, Taker has one of the greatest gimmicks of all-time.

His finishers are better, he is bigger, stonger and a better brawler and IMO is all-around better than Sting is. Guess it's just a matter of opinion, but if Sting faces Taker at Mania, alls I have to say is RIP to him. Going 19-0.

Ric Flair will be on ESPN soon to "pass the torch" to Aaron Rogers. Just heard it on ESPN.

Wrestlemania 28 headed to Sun Life stadium in Miami

Miami-Dade County has won the bid to host World Wrestling Entertainment’s super bowl WrestleMania 28 in the spring of 2012 at Sun Life Stadium, a week-long event which attracts fans from around the world.

In the three-year process, the area won the bid over other cities under consideration, such as Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York and Toronto.

At a Wednesday press conference in South Florida, officials will detail the weeklong list of activities planned culminating with the WWE WrestleMania 28 pay-per-view at Sun Life Stadium, home to the Miami Dolphins and five NFL Super Bowls. The stadium can seat more than 75,000.

Grammy Award Winner Emilio Estefan and other dignitaries are expected to be present during the press conference, as well as several poiiticians.

It will be the second WrestleMania in Florida and the third outdoors. In 2008, WrestleMania 24 was held at the outdoors Citrus Bowl in Orlando. That event set an attendance record for the stadium with 74,635 fans.

Last year, WrestleMania 26 set a University of Phoenix Stadium indoor attendance record, beating a U2 concert from 2009 by more than 20,000. Mania’s attendance was 72,219 with fans from 50 states and 26 countries - a common occurrence. The show grossed $5.8 million as well, becoming the highest grossing entertainment event ever at the stadium.

WrestleMania 26 also generated $45.1 million in economic impact for the greater Glendale/Phoenix area, according to a study conducted by the Enigma Research Corporation. The study said the show also garnered almost $5 million in local, state and county taxes. The economic impact derived from WrestleMania Week equated to the creation of 510 full-time jobs.

Those kinds of numbers are consistent to the host venue and area as WrestleMania Week is a financial gold mine, which is why many cities in North America bid annually for the extravaganza.

Miami had failed to lure the 2011 spectacular to South Florida, losing out to Atlanta. But WWE officials said the city was still on their radar when selecting the 2012 site because of its international ties, facilities, airports and experience hosting hundreds of other mega events.

Sun Life Stadium, home to the Miami Dolphins and five NFL Super Bowls, can seat more than 75,000; attendance records have been broken for venues servicing WrestleMania, a major international event televised to more than 100 countries.

After watching some highlights of Sting and knowing that both Sting and Undertaker have that mystical, superpower/immortal persona and the atmosphere just one of them brings to an arena, I am really pumped for a match and everything leading up to it now.

Can't wait until next week's RAW to see Sting's debut. What does everyone think will happen? Does he call out the Undertaker? Does he have the urn? Will Paul Bearer return? When will 'Taker come back? All great questions with only a little bit of time to be answered.

Damn I was hoping for a Rock appearance at the PPV yesterday. I wonder if he'll show up tonight on Raw? It's going to be interesting to see how this turns out since The Rock wanted to face Cena and The Miz and now those two are facing eachother...

Yeah, and that is what I told you all at first, that it was Taker returning. Then you posted the pic of Sting holding a Taker card and actually made me believe it was Sting, man was I disappointed. Triple H ain't shit, I couldv'e cared less about his return. I only liked him when he was wtih HBK as DX, singles wise I'm not a fan.

And now I've come to find out the Rock is not only NOT going to fight Cena or wrestle a single match, but he is gone right after Mania. What the Fuck is all of this shit?

FUCK YOU VINCE. YOU PLAYED ALL OF US TWICE IN ONE MONTH YOU SENILE PIECE OF SHIT.
