Sting Rejected Postponing His Retirement Until AEW All In 2024

Sting was asked by Tony Khan if he wanted to continue wrestling until AEW All In 2024, which would allow him to retire on the biggest possible stage inside London's Wembley Stadium. Sting ultimately rejected wrestling until deep into 2024, however, as he felt in October 2023 that he only had a "good six months" left, Tony Khan revealed to New York Post.

"I wanted to know if Sting believed he could participate next year, and I knew he felt like he might not have another year left in him when we were at Wembley this year but he was still feeling very good and he wants to stay feeling very good through his retirement. He told me as we approached this ticket on sale that he did not believe he could make it another year in wrestling and have the best chance for a happy and healthy retirement. He’s doing great right now, and he wants to keep it that way. He plans to keep beating people up and keeping himself healthy," Khan stated.

Instead, Sting will call it a career on March 3, 2024 at Revolution. The pay-per-view will emanate from the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina - a venue synonymous with the NWA and WCW.

AEW All In tickets went on general sale on December 1. Over 36,000 tickets have already been distributed for the event.
