Back in 2020, Sting made his big debut with All Elite Wrestling at Winter Is Coming, and since then he’s had a fairly consistent presence on AEW programming. The Icon is usually seen backing up Darby Allin, but it’s been a little while since Sting has appeared on TV.
While speaking on K&C Masterpiece, Sting addressed his current status with AEW and he noted that he hasn’t been on TV because he had to undergo knee surgery.
“I just had surgery, six or seven weeks ago now, basically just a clean out on my very old knees. I’ve seen those that went through the physical therapy process with flying colors, did what they were supposed to do, and worked through the pain versus those who did not, and those who did not, they never recover, the game never comes back to them. I know that is of the utmost importance,”
“For me, I had to do things differently in the ring, I had to prepare differently, train differently, think differently in the ring and come up with more innovative ways to accomplish my goal.”
Stay tuned for more updates on Sting’s status as they become available.
