NEWS : Sting talks Undertaker at WrestleMania & More

TNA star Sting says he would still like to face The Undertaker at WrestleMania, but it sounds less likely than two years ago when both sides were close.

"It’s no secret. I’ve always wanted to wrestle Undertaker; I’ve said that for years. And who would not want to work WrestleMania," Sting told the VOC Nation Radio Network in an interview promoting his appearance at this weekend's "Legends of the Ring" convention in Monroe, N.J.

The comment comes across like "it would be nice if this happened" as opposed to dropping a hint about talking to WWE when his contract comes up again in early 2014.

"I do an annual contract every year and the rumors start right around January," Sting, 54, said. "The year that they did the (black and white) vignettes (in 2011), I had nothing to do with it and I had no conversations with the WWE at that time. Shortly afterward there were conversations (with WWE) just by happenstance but nothing official.”

Even though it seems unlikely that Sting will shift to WWE, Sting did say in the interview that the felt like his Hall of Fame induction last year was a sign of the company "putting me out to pasture," despite TNA president Dixie Carter saying that is "absolutely not" the case.

As for the current TNA product, Sting said he would like to work with Magnus, who Sting said "has the potential to be great." He added that, creatively, "We have to get James Storm and (Samoa) Joe going again."
