Sting, the legendary wrestler, has announced that he will be hanging up his boots at the upcoming AEW Revolution event. However, his longtime friend and WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash will not be able to attend the retirement match.
Nash revealed on the Kliq This podcast that he had hoped to be there to support Sting, either backstage or in the crowd. But due to his position with WWE, he was not given permission to attend the rival company's event. Despite approaching WWE and getting a three-second pause before receiving a response, Nash was ultimately not allowed to be a part of the historic match.
Both Nash and Sting were disappointed by the decision, as their careers have been closely linked over the years. Nash admitted that Sting had asked him to be a part of the match because he has been there for him throughout his entire career. Sting also wanted Nash by his side for his last match in the ring.
Their friendship goes way back, and Sting even announced his retirement from wrestling in 2023, after his initial 2015 retirement in WWE didn't feel right. He made the announcement on AEW Dynamite, stating that his first and last match with AEW would be at Revolution in 2024.
Fans have been chanting Sting's name and telling him he still has it, but he has made it clear that this retirement is definitive. Despite the disappointment of not having his friend by his side, Sting is ready to bid farewell to the ring at Revolution.
