Sting debuted at AEW & shocked the entire pro wrestling world. He confirmed that he will be in AEW for long period of time & most likely retiring in AEW only. Now, reports came out of what WWE originally planned for Sting.
During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that Sting is likely to end his career in AEW. Meltzer revealed that Sting was supposed to retire after his match against Triple H at Wrestlemania 31.
“They announced it, and everybody just jumped, oh, we’re going to get Sting and Undertaker at WrestleMania. The reaction was so big for Sting that you know, Vince felt well, we got to use them, and so, we didn’t get Undertaker and Sting, but we got the Triple H thing. You know, Vince’s concept is like, ‘Well, let’s end the wrestling war,’ you know.”
“It was so ridiculous and whatever. So the idea was, you know, I remember that night in Santa Clara, and the whole idea was that, um, this is Sting’s one and only WWF/WWE match. So, of course, it’s his one and only match; he loses to Triple H because he’s not coming back, and then, couple months later, hey, we got this idea, let’s put him with Seth Rollins and so, that was his other thing. That was a complete disaster, unfortunately, in many ways and ended his career.”
Thanks to Sportskeeda for the quotes.
Sting signed with WWE in 2014 and debuted at Survivor Series. In 2015, he got injured in a match against Seth Rollins and forced to retire from in-ring competition. Now, it’s quite clear that Sting is back in AEW with a bang and he’s not going anywhere.
