He Would Know: Undertaker Reveals Why Dream Match With Sting Never Took Place

There’s a good reason for that. Wrestling can be built around the idea of dream matches, as there are certain pairings that wrestlers would want to see in the ring together. It can lead to some incredible moments when they finally get together, though some of them just never happen. Now we know why one of the biggest modern dream matches never came to pass.

During a recent edition of his Six Feet Under With Mark Calaway podcast, the Undertaker spoke about why a match between himself and Sting never took place during Sting’s time in WWE. According to the Undertaker, the match didn’t take place because Vince McMahon did not want to do it. While Undertaker believed the match would have been good, he did not know if it could have lived up to the hype. Undertaker also spoke about how both of them could hide their limitations, such as Sting did by only wrestling in tag matches during his time in AEW. Sting retired from wrestling earlier this month at AEW Revolution.

There was something to it. Check out the two of them in action and a tease of the match:

Opinion: This is indeed one of the dream matches that fans had wanted to see for a very long time and that is about as clean cut of a reason the match did not take place as you can get. I’m not sure how well it would have gone in 2015 or beyond, but there was an appeal of the match taking place years before then. It’s going to go down as one of the all time what if’s and while that is a shame, it leaves the idea in a special place.

What do you think of the idea? How would the match have gone? Let us know in the comments below.
