Sting says he has signed multi-year licensing deal with AEW

Posted: Oct 21st 2024 By: Bryan Rose

Sting has signed a new deal with AEW.

The recently retired star revealed to Kayfabe Friends that he has signed a new licensing deal with the company, continuing their relationship after retiring from in-ring action earlier this year.

“I signed a multi-year deal with AEW. Obviously, not to wrestle anymore, it’s like a licensing deal, a legends deal if you want to call it that,” he said. “I’ll do appearances with them on and off depending on what they want and all.”

Sting wrestled his final match in the main event of AEW’s Revolution pay-per-view back in March, teaming with Darby Allin to defeat The Young Bucks and retaining the AEW Tag Team titles. Following their victory, the titles were declared vacant.

Since stepping away from the ring, Sting has largely stayed out of the spotlight. However, he did make an appearance at All In back in August, helping Darby Allin ward off The Young Bucks and Jack Perry. After next year’s All In was announced for Texas, Sting wrote on social media that would be watching from “somewhere.”
