Sting wrestled the final match of his career this past Sunday at AEW Revolution 2024.
The WCW legend successfully defended the AEW Tag Team Titles with Darby Allin against The Young Bucks in the main event of the show.
On a recent edition of his “Tuesday with The Taskmaster” podcast, former WCW booker Kevin Sullivan praised AEW President Tony Khan’s handling of Sting’s retirement match.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On how Tony Khan handled Sting’s retirement: “I think Tony Khan did a magnificent job, especially he’s done it swimming upstream because he’s taken a lot of flak the company has taken lately – and you know how that is. Once they turn on you, they turn on you like The Rock.”
On Sting: “Sting did a magnificent job, a class guy, I’ve known him for a long time.”
On Sting’s first match with Ric Flair at Clash of the Champions I in 1988: “I was there that night that Ric anointed him with the match. That was – you know, you saw a seed being planted the week before and then that flower blew up instantaneously and he never looked back.”
