When it comes to professional wrestling, only a few of the original WCW Superstars are left on the planet. Their careers are forever cherished and loved by their fans. WCW legend, AEW Superstar Sting recently retired after dominating the squared circle for almost four decades. As such, WWE legend, The Undertaker recently talked about the wrestling legend’s final match at AEW Revolution 2024.

While speaking to Fightful, The Phenom asserted that AEW booked the massive match “judiciously”. The Deadman stated how Stinger was deliberately put in situations where his age factor wouldn’t issue with wrestling. The higher-ups set up the field beforehand to make sure Sting does not get “exposed” as per the Hall of Famer.

Furthermore, the 59-year-old wrestling veteran stated how bookers kept in mind The Vigilante’s limitations when it comes to in-ring action. Moreover, The Lord of Darkness added how The Icon could have had multiple options for a farewell singles match. However, he was paired with his protégé, Darby Allin in a “big-brother” role.

The 65-year-old wrestling legend retired as the AEW Tag Team Champion and will stay under the radar of the Florida-based company. Meanwhile, The Undertaker is signed with the Stamford-based company under the Legends contract. Despite being under the same roof in the past, both the Superstars could never encounter each other. Surprisingly, WWE acknowledged Sting’s final match on live WWE programming.
