The WWE revealed at Fastlane on Sunday night that Sting will have his first match in the WWE -- and possibly the last of his career -- against Triple H at WrestleMania 31.
WWE Moday Night RAW Preview and Latest Rumors
Despite the match being made official for March 29 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., "The Vigilante" isn't expected to be on the company's flagship show tonight.
According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, Sting was scheduled to return to his home of Dallas, TX on Monday morning and will not be in attendance at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville for RAW despite being in Memphis Sunday night for his segment with Triple H.

In the segment, Triple H and Sting had a verbal confrontation which ended when "The Game" tried to sneak attack "The Vigilante," but was caught.
Triple H then gained the upper-hand and went for his sledgehammer, but Sting thwarted him off with his infamous bat. Sting then used the bat to point to the WrestleMania 31 sign hanging in the arena and it was later confirmed the two will square off at the "Show of Shows."
Sting then delivered a Scorpion Death Drop to end the segment and while he won't be in attendance tonight, Triple H is set to address him and the events of Fastlane as well as the upcoming WrestleMania match this week on RAW.
The Fastlane segment was only Sting's third appearance in the WWE as he made his debut at Survivor Series to help Dolph Ziggler get the win for Team Cena over Seth Rollins and Team Authority.
The former WCW and TNA icon then appeared to provide a distraction that helped John Cena win a handicap match against Seth Rollins, The Big Show and Kane last month on RAW. The victory earned back the jobs of Ziggler, Ryback and Erick Rowan.
There were rumors for many years that Sting would face The Undertaker upon his debut, but the company is going with Sting vs. Triple H and Undertaker vs. Bray Wyatt for WrestleMania.
When Sting's official signing was first reported on, it was said he had six dates on his contract -- three of which have already been used.
This means that Sting has three more dates -- including WrestleMania -- to use on the road to the biggest show of 2015.
One of those appearances, however, won't be used this week on RAW.
