10 Biggest booking mistakes by the WWE this decade

Questionable, to say the least

#9 Triple H beating Sting at WrestleMaina 31

<p>
Another instance of Triple H's ego running wild

Sting arriving in the WWE was something that the fans had dreamed about since the dissolution of WCW. But it was not until Survivor Series 2014 that their dream was fulfilled.

In the main event of the evening, Team Cena took on Team Authority in a traditional 5-on-5 Survivor Series match. When Dolph Ziggler and Seth Rollins were remaining in the match, Triple H decided to interfere. As he proceeded to beat up Ziggler, Sting arrived. Sting debuted to interfere in the main event and hitting Hunter with a Scorpion Death Drop. He then lay Ziggler on top of Rollins for him to score the pin and end the Authority's control on Monday Night Raw.

Soon, a match between Sting and Triple H was announced. Over a good build-up, he faced Triple H at WrestleMania 31 which saw interferences by DX and nWo. WWE brought back the nostalgia with a recreation of Monday Night Wars.

It was logical that Sting should prevail as it was his much-anticipated debut match. But on this night, Triple H’s ego ran wild as he pinned Sting. Triple H always takes the pin against rising superstars but he hates to do that with his peers. Given that Sting retired after losing yet another match against Rollins, this certainly ruined his limited WWE career.
