WWE Hall Of Famer Sting stars in Dallas Cowboys sketch comedy video
Posted: Dec 21st 2016 By: Forbes.com
The NFL's Dallas Cowboys "hired" WWE Hall of Famer Sting to be the team's new intimidation coach in a hilarious sketch comedy video.
In the video posted in the tweet below, Sting admits that he has a lot of time on his hands after retiring from the ring and that he applied for the job out of boredom:
Sting goes on to land the job and shows off his acting chops with some humorous encounters with members of the Cowboys team and staff, including Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player candidate Ezekiel Elliott and all-time great tight end Jason Witten.
The 2016 WWE Hall of Famer is super overprotective of his trademark bat, has an interesting interaction with a copy machine and gets upset over the lack of French vanilla coffee, but is still able to pass on his trademark face paint to Cowboys players, who are on a quest to become the No. 1 seed in the NFC and win the team's first Super Bowl in more than 20 years.
Sting's appearance in the video marks one of his first in-character public appearances since he retired at this year's Hall of Fame Ceremony after suffering a severe neck injury during a WWE Championship match against Seth Rollins at Night of Champions in September 2015. Coincidentally enough, Sting's induction took place in the America Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, during WrestleMania 32 weekend when many speculated that Sting could wrestle his final bout there in a dream match against The Undertaker.
Instead, The Undertaker went on to face Shane McMahon while Sting headlined the 2016 Hall of Fame class. Despite Sting's career appearing to be finished, the former WCW and WWE star recently said that he doesn't know if his career is officially over and he also indicated that he still wants to
face The Undertaker, saying:
I think wrestling fans, it’s a dream match for them, it’s a
dream match for me too, but I just don’t think it’s going to
happen.”
WWE probably won't risk putting Sting, who is approaching 60, in a ring again, but "The Icon" seems intent on wrestling again and even is reportedly delaying neck surgery to avoid calling it a career.
If Sting's appearance in the above video proved anything, it's that he still has "it," that undeniable charisma that makes him a likable star who the fans would love to see wrestle one more match. With Sting making it clear that he isn't quite ready to call it quits, perhaps he'll get that dream match against The Undertaker one day.
But even if he doesn't, Sting certainly could have a bright future as an intimidation coach, right?
