Once they made that a Monday Night Wars thing, they weren't going to end with Sting coming out on top.
Yeah, and tbh I really didn't want a throwback to the Monday Night Wars. I thought the match was doing well progressing as it was with the two of them. Really felt over-booked there. It was really one of the few blemishes on the night for me as I've been a big Sting fan for so long. I can understand why they did it but considering it was being touted as "I'm not fighting for WCW" I didn't think they would have made it a WCW vs WWE thing.
Also, I was totally expecting the NWO to come out to turn on Sting or just help DX.
I did like that it was Shawn that turned the tide in HHH's favour though. I have a feeling that was one of the ways that made Sting comfortable with it as they are apparently good friends IRL.
Sting recently said this was "more than likely" his last match but if he had a really positive experience with this he'd reconsider doing some more matches if asked.

It's honestly kind of impossible for them not to make it a throwback to that era.

I totally agree that there would obviously be a lot of comparison's and what not to the MNW but I just think it could have been more...muted I guess? Just felt off when one guy clearly says "This isn't about WCW for me" and then all of a sudden it turns into a nostalgic DX vs NWO mid-way through the match. But like many have said, that's more of an over-booking thing I think.
EDIT**
Also, if they were going to make it a nostalgia fest I would have liked it if they had Sting come out to his old Crow theme. Get an orchestra like in the WWE 2k15 reveal and go the whole way.
I know it's not the most popular opinion but I'm really looking forward to Taker retiring.
No, I agree
I pretty much like the undertaker because of his special effects
He's not like a bad wrestler or anything but they have other people that can fill that now and his matches are slow and I don't want him to get seriously hurt
I thought the Bray match was fine but I would like one ridiculous, insane special effects match and then just let him go, its time
I didn't have some kind of Chicken Fry fever dream yesterday did I?

Funny thing is I was asking my dad this morning in an e-mail what he thought of Hogan and Sheik during his return in 91 92, I was like six. I was a huge hulkamaniac.
Apparently he was rooting for the Sheik because Hogan was 'annoying' 'kind of a prick as a good guy' and 'never seemed to lose the big one.'
So after a night's sleep and a good amount of time to sober up I really loved last night's Mania and the few things here and there that I did not like don't really bother me at all today.
I am excited to DVR Raw and watch it in full tonight!

Not only that, but even if they did shake hands and make up, I cant imagine Sting now suddenly being on HHH's side to be GM on Raw for him

But I absolutely expect them to tease Sting/Taker for next year on tonight's Raw.

now I want to figure out how to get to that show

If they do this
I want a special effects horseshit extravaganza
I want them to shoot crows and lightning at each other like a fucking kamehameha battle

Seems like some things never change!
As someone who was at SummerSlam 2003 and participated in The Wave, I'm sorry for apparently ruining things.
Also, I'm not sorry, because JBL-Taker was boring as fuck and they deserved every second of our scorn.
