Sting has been lucky enough to have a long career in the professional wrestling business, but his career will be wrapping up soon when he wrestles his final match at the AEW Revolution pay-per-view next month. Darby Allin & Sting will be defending the AEW World Tag Team Titles against The Young Bucks, but Kevin Nash won’t be in attendance.
Kevin Nash recently noted on his podcast that Sting asked him to be a part of his retirement. However, Nash told Sting that he couldn’t do it because of his positioning with WWE.
During the latest episode of his Kliq This podcast Nash clarified that he is not on WWE’s payroll while explaining why he won’t be at the AEW Revolution pay-per-view.
“I never said that [that he’s on WWE’s payroll]… What I said was that I’m a WWE guy… I can’t have a picture of me in the crowd and underneath it says, ‘is All Elite.’ I just can’t have that. It just doesn’t work for… one of my closest f*****g friends, people, is Paul Levesque [Triple H]. As much as I love Steve [Borden, aka Sting], and I know he’ll only have one last match, I will watch it. We will talk about it. I just won’t [be there]…”
Nash also went on to say that he isn’t keen on the idea of being around large groups of people when he added, “Man… I haven’t been to a WrestleMania, a Raw, a SmackDown, or any of the other pay-per-views. I haven’t been to any events. I don’t want to go to any place and be around a bunch of people, let alone wrestling people. I just don’t want to do it. I’m a hermit and that’s it. My. existence is — I went to the gym the other day and the place was packed and I just walked right out.”
AEW Revolution will air live on Sunday, March 3. Stay tuned for updates.
