Sting returns during ‘I Quit’ match at AEW WrestleDream
Posted: Oct 19th 2025 By: Josh Nason
Sting made his return to AEW during Saturday’s AEW WrestleDream, aiding former World Tag Team Champion partner Darby Allin in the main event ‘I Quit’ match against Jon Moxley.
After Moxley was attempting to drown Allin in an aquarium several times, the lights went out and the grey-haired and goateed Sting appeared with his bat in tow. He then choked out Moxley with the bat, hit PAC and Claudio Castagnoli, shattered the aquarium, and tossed the bat to Allin.
Marina Shafir then got in Sting’s face only to be carried to the back by “The Icon.”
Allin later used Sting’s Scorpion Deathlock (while Moxley was writing in a puddle of water and broken glass) to make Moxley say “I Quit.”
Sting’s last on-screen appearance came at 2024’s All In, freeing Allin from a coffin that the Young Bucks and Jack Perry were about to set on fire. He also appeared in a non-televised segment following an August AEW Collision from Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena to take part in an Eddie Gilbert tribute.
