AEW Making “Rookie Mistakes” With Sting Booking Says Konnan

According to former WCW and TNA star Konnan has said that All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is making “rookie mistakes” with their booking of WWE Hall of Famer Sting since his debut last month.

Speaking with Lucha Libre Online, Konnan said that AEW is making some mistakes with their booking, and used the example of how Sting has been used since debuting on December 2nd to prove his point:

“I get along with Tony Khan, but they are mistakes, man. They are rookie mistakes. I’ll give you a good example, I had this discussion on my podcast: When Sting came out the first time, there was a guy on my podcast who told me: ‘He just came out and did nothing.’ And I said, ‘Well, he doesn’t have to do anything, he came out and it’s a surprise, and it’s Sting, man.’”

“Then the second week he told me the same thing and this time I told him that he’s right. That’s why the ratings dropped so much, because the guy has been out three times and literally they haven’t done anything. I mean, they have had 3 chances to make a breaking news ‘bomb’ with this guy, and you haven’t done anything.”

Konnan certainly isn’t alone in his opinion, as fans online have also brought up that Sting hasn’t really done much since his AEW debut and does much of the same thing every single week.
