Michael Cole congratulates Sting on retirement during WWE Raw

Michael Cole congratulates Sting on retirement during WWE Raw

Posted: Mar 5th 2024 By: Bryan Rose

Michael Cole and Pat McAfee congratulated Sting on his retirement.

During Monday’s Raw, Cole took a minute to address Sting, who retired following his match at AEW Revolution on Sunday.

“After nearly 40 years, the great Sting has retired from professional wrestling. Thanks for the memories, congratulations to Sting.” Cole said.

“Absolutely epic match last night,” McAfee added.

Sting won his retirement match on Sunday, teaming with Darby Allin to retain the AEW Tag Team titles against The Young Bucks in a tornado match. The titles have since been vacated, and a tournament will begin this month to crown new champions.

After spending a number of years with TNA, Sting had a brief run with the WWE in 2014, losing to Triple H at WrestleMania 31. He returned that fall in a match against Seth Rollins where he suffered a neck injury after taking a turnbuckle powerbomb. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2016, where he announced his first retirement. He stayed retired until returning to the ring in 2021 for AEW.
