Sting won't return until late into the summer
Posted: Jul 25th 2015 By: Michael O'Brien - GiveMeSport.com
The WWE are clearly going all out for Summer Slam and are trying their best to get audience interest in the upcoming show at an all time high.
They have already booked The Undertaker vs Brock Lesnar for the main event which became explosive on RAW on Monday.
Whilst the rematch from WrestleMania XXX is on, other big rumours are surfacing and if even half of them are true, then the show will prove to be one to remember.
Arguably the biggest rumour ahead of the show however is the possible return of 'the Vigilante' Sting - who we haven't seen since the night after WrestleMania.
Sting is being rumoured to be playing a part in a feud with the now reunited Wyatt Family and could be teaming with two members of the former Shield.
Everyone expects Sting to be teaming with Roman Reigns but many feel Dean Ambrose may be on their team too.
Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper have recently reformed the Wyatt family whilst a third member is expected to be discovered in the coming weeks.
Fans of the face painted vigilante however will be upset to hear the latest backstage news which claim that Sting won't be back until very close to Summer Slam.
The reason for keeping Sting off of TV until just before Summer Slam is believed to be because they want his return to be a shock and to help create a huge amount of buzz ahead of the show.
He is expected to return to save the day so it is really anyone's guess what sequence of events will unfold before we see Sting again.
A packed card?
The card for Summer Slam is already looking packed with the Undertaker vs Brock Lesnar match taking precedence over the other rumours.
We are expecting a champion vs champion between WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and the United States Champion John Cena.
Whatever other plans the WWE have for the show, they will surely be explosive as they try to increase the subscription numbers for the WWE Network.
