Former AEW World Tag Team Champion Sting has no intention of coming out of retirement

In a recent interview with the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast, the 66-year-old said that he has wrestled enough, and he is not going to come out of retirement for one last match.

"I actually wanted to retire as Old Man Sting. I’ve got enough fans going, ‘One more. Just one more.’ Right, one more match. I’m 66 now; enough is enough!” the veteran said. [H/T: The Takedown on SI]

It will be interesting to see if The Icon changes his decision in the near future. Stranger things have happened in professional wrestling.
