Sting has announced his plans regarding future appearances in his iconic wrestling attire. Through a social media post, he shared his decision about continuing to meet fans in his traditional look.
I have enjoyed meeting fans at events around the world.
As much as I have loved interacting with you all in the traditional Stinger war paint, I’ve decided that 2025 will be my last year appearing in full gear.
I guess it’s 2025 or never. Wow. Tough to speak that out.
Sting holds a legends contract with AEW, which allows him to make appearances and sell merchandise. He is scheduled to appear at Indianapolis WrestleCon on January 24.
