And the Aces & Eights leader is... *potential spoiler*

**The_Boss** · 10-12-2012, 12:48 PM

Aces and Eights leader: STING

Think about it.
1) He was the first person they attacked therefore immediately showing that there was a connection AND to insure that he would never be suspected.
2) Aces and Eights admitted it was someone from the inside.
3) TNA admittedly has yet to use the ACTUAL Aces and Eights leader in the skits. Why? Because he's busy on the other side setting everything up.
4) He's never been suspected: While many others have been set up as potential turn coats (Storm was flat out accused, Roode admitted that he wanted to see Aries loose the title, Jeff Jarrett was suggested by the fans but still adds to the list of potential leaders, HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN has gone back to his HOLLYWOOD(HULK HOGAN) gimmick to bring suspicion on himself,Bully Ray is a flat out heal and seems TOO obvious that it could be him), so as to make reveal seem predictable. And TNA's best quality is that they are so UN-predictable.
5) The HOF: The TNA HOF is admittedly a joke. They haven't been around long enough to have HOF candidates from their promotion. This is all a gimmick to make Sting into even more of a superhero so that his betrayal will be devastating. After all, they've tried to turn him heal before and it didn't quite work. But for him to wreck the HOF where his entire career is being honored? That could make fans angry.
6) The Undertaker: Sting has admitted that he would like to work a WrestleMania before he retires and even admitted that he was close to signing in the past. Perhaps he's given TNA his notice. If that's the case then he can't leave a hero, he must leave a Villain who gets beaten by TNA. The old unwritten rule is that you go out on your back.
7) HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN: He has been in the center of this build up from the beginning therefore he somehow must be involved. If he's not going to wrestle the match at BFG, then he must be the hero who saves the day. Therefore the leader has to be someone with a history with HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN and someone old enough for him to beat. With Flair gone, Macho Man dead and Piper no where to be seen, who fits that mold better than Sting?

I predict that Sting will be the leader of Aces and Eights.

I think TNA has done a wonderful job of keeping us all off balance giving reasons to think the leader could be a number of people including Sting, I could make a case for Hogan being the leader... no one actually seeing him being attacked...we saw the aftermath with Brooke kneeling over her father..but the Hogan heel turn already didnt work so why try again ? Of coarse there are cases for Bischoof and Jeff Jerrett being leaders, and they're reasons are similar...During the past months ive invisioned Konnan coming back being the leader, Abyss doing double duty as Joseph Parks and the leader..why else havent the FBI been notified that someone was kidnapped on national tv..lol..Mr Anderson could be the leader because he's been "mis used" but your right in the fact that no one..not Bobby Roode or Bully Ray have pointed a finger at Sting and while that would probably be the biggest dagger they could place into the hearts of TNA fans I have to wonder how far would they take the Sting Heel story ?

**BestInThe205** · 10-12-2012, 05:46 PM

I can see it.

**The_Boss** · 10-13-2012, 12:54 PM

And if it does indeed turn out to be Sting I predict that we will see him take on HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN in a loser must leave TNA match.

**Codebreaker** · 10-13-2012, 01:13 PM

I don't watch TNA, but have considered it. A lot of people I know who do watch it say this storyline is really good. I would have to watch some youtube videos to know what it's about, haven't seen any of it yet.

**Cenamark2.0** · 10-13-2012, 01:27 PM

No way. Sting would never turn his back on the TNA Universe.

**Codebreaker** · 10-13-2012, 02:05 PM

Bound for Glory comes off like Bash at the Beach '96. Tag match with a big heel turn. Just like Hogan turned on Savage and Sting and joined The Outsiders, like The Boss said, more likely that Sting will be the guy this time, turning on Bully Ray.

I hope that's not the scenario. I loved the Monday Night Wars just like everyone else, but bookers need to stop trying to copy it and start creating original magic.

**Jack Nichols** · 10-13-2012, 03:14 PM

would they turn Sting with the TNA HOF coming up though?

**akita** · 10-14-2012, 01:16 AM

Heel

**The Industry** · 10-14-2012, 11:12 AM

Sting couldn't pull off a heel act because he could never embrace that side of the job. I mean seriouslY, this was a guy who somehow was a face and at the same time was the leader of MEM.

I think the TNA HOF is complete horse s*** just to make Sting's heel turn more shocking. More importantly to help make fans mad at him.

**BestInThe205** · 10-14-2012, 04:54 PM

tonight's the night we find out!
Will Sting be the leader or will the Sons of An.... I mean, Aces and Eights have a CARD up their sleeves?

**Falcone** · 10-14-2012, 05:04 PM

You know who I wouldn't rule out as the inside man, just because TNA hates us?

AJ Styles.

**The Industry** · 10-14-2012, 05:24 PM

He's in a ladder match tonight, Falcone

Raven* · 10-14-2012, 05:29 PM

Styles has been planning this while undergoing the Claire Lynch fiasco. Genius.

**Falcone** · 10-14-2012, 05:30 PM

Hey, TNA loves to turn Styles whether it's appropriate or not. Hell, we might see Daniels turn face and we'll be treated to another year of Daniels/Styles madness.

**The Industry** · 10-14-2012, 05:32 PM

I don't think even TNA has the balls to no sell the dammage from a 3 way tag team ladder match.

Oh God, I hope not..

**Falcone** · 10-14-2012, 05:53 PM

Who said AJ would go through with the match? He's already pissy about Angle wanting in the Aces & 8's challenge, he could walk out on Angle.

Hogan wasn't even in the match at BATB '96. Maybe the inside guy isn't even in the match.

**The Industry** · 10-14-2012, 06:46 PM

What are you talking about?

**Codebreaker** · 10-14-2012, 06:51 PM

It's obvious they are ripping off Bash at the Beach '96 with tonights match.

**The Industry** · 10-14-2012, 06:51 PM

I don't see what that has to do with my to Falcone about AJ Styles

You sounded like you were saying Styles couldn't be the guy cuz he had another match on the card. A lot of people are figuring on either Sting or Bully Ray to betray the other. So just saying Styles could still be the one despite his other match.
