Putting aside the unwise nature of that last comment, it’s heartening to hear that a man who hasn’t always treated wrestlers from other companies right, welcomed a genuine legend into the fold. Sting’s humbling at the first-rate treatment he received is also a heart-warming detail to hear. Men like Sting who have given their lives to the industry should be treated with nothing but respect.

Finally came the big question. The one which would decide if he had any regrets and if he was truly done with professional wrestling for good. Forced to step away from the squared circle after a Seth Rollins buckle-bomb went awry at Night of Champions 2015, Sting’s possible return always crops up around WrestleMania season as we clamor for one more dream match against The Undertaker:
“Yeah, I’m really done. I mean my neck doesn’t bother me at all. For the first couple of months after the match, I had an ache that would go down to the left side of my neck and down into my left trap. It was like a dull ache that was just there all the time and it was hard to sleep. I don’t have any side effects, any trouble so all I know is the neurosurgeon said, “You are so lucky there wasn’t a catastrophe that happened.”
I got to be careful and it’s sad too because even at my age I feel like I could still go, I could still have a real good Undertaker match for example. We could tell an incredible story with both the chemics and the mystique of both of them. I’ve had these ideas for 20 years, some of the ideas I have in my head. It would be something that people would talk about for a long time, but I’m satisfied. I’m happy with the way things turned out.
I did have my WWE run, it was short, but I had one. I did WrestleMania, I wrestled Seth Rollins, I wrestled for the WWE World Title, so I can’t complain.”
WrestleTalk would like to know your thoughts on Sting’s words, if you’d like to see return for more match, or whether he should stay away and marvel at a legendary career. Your comments are always welcome on Twitter and Discord.
