AEW Star Drops Huge Retirement Tease

AEW

AEW star Sting has dropped a huge retirement tease following his match at the Great Muta Final ‘Bye Bye’ event.

At the January 22 show, Sting and Darby Allin teamed with the Great Muta to defeat the team of AKIRA & Hakushi & Naomichi Marufuji.

This show marked one of the final stops on Keiji Muto’s retirement tour, with this bout being Muto’s last as the Great Muta.

In the post-match interview, Sting revealed that the bout may have also marked the end of an era for him too.

The wrestling veteran indicated that he might have just wrestled for the last time in Japan, noting:

“Yeah, maybe ‘bye bye’ for Sting in Japan. I don’t know, we’ll see.”

Following these comments, Muto appeared to tell Sting to return to Japan, arguing that he’s still good.

AEW President Tony Khan recently discussed Sting’s in-ring future, confirming that the star is currently thinking about his retirement.

Sting last wrestled for AEW at the November 2022 Full Gear pay-per-view, teaming with Darby Allin to defeat Jay Lethal & Jeff Jarrett.

Muto will wrestle his final match at the Keiji Muto Grand Final: Pro-Wrestling ‘Last’ Love event on February 23. Check out the full card for that event right here.
