Sting was with WWE from 2014 until earlier this year and shocked the wrestling world when he appeared during the December 2nd episode of Dynamite. It was subsequently reported he’d signed a multi-year contract with Tony Khan’s promotion. Still, it wasn’t clear exactly what his role would be, seeing as he had retired after worsening his already damaged neck during a match against Seth Rollins at Night of Champions in 2015. Now speaking on the AEW Unrestricted podcast, he addressed the question everyone has been wondering since his first AEW appearance, and that was whether he would wrestle? With the answer being YES!
Cinematic matches aren’t new in wrestling and allow for a different style of presentation for select matches. While Matt Hardy helped bring them to prominence, they became an accepted part of wrestling once WWE featured two of them at WrestleMania 36. The Boneyard Match between The Undertaker and AJ Styles would headline the first night of the event and was well-received. The Undertaker would acknowledge afterward he wouldn’t have a better final match and announced his retirement.
AEW already has experience with cinematic matches, with the Stadium Stampede match heading their Double or Nothing pay-per-view. So now, with the question answered on whether Sting will wrestle again, the next question is who he will be facing?
