Sting Confirms Signing Multi-Year Deal with AEW

Sting developed a strong connection with Darby Allin during his time in AEW, culminating in his retirement match against The Young Bucks at AEW Revolution. Even if he isn’t wrestling anymore, Sting has a relationship with AEW, and it appears he has confirmed signing a multi-year deal with the company.

At the 58th Annual Cauliflower Alley Club Reunion, Sting talked about his future with AEW in an interview with The David Difference. Sting revealed that he recently signed a new contract with AEW, though it won’t involve wrestling. The multi-year deal is more focused on licensing and appearances, allowing him to maintain a presence in the company while stepping away from the ring.

In addition to his AEW commitments, Sting shared that he’s returning to his passion for real estate. Before his wrestling career took off, he was involved in real estate investments, flipping houses long before the trend became popular. Now that his in-ring career is winding down, he’s once again focusing on this side of his business life.

“I signed a multi-year deal with AEW, obviously not to wrestle anymore, but it’s like a licensing deal, a legends deal if you want to call it that. So I’ll do appearances with them on and off, depending on what they want and all.

“I’ve done real estate, I did real estate before I ever was a pro wrestler, so I’ve always loved real estate. A lot of people say, ‘Oh, are you a real estate agent?’ No, I’m not an agent. I’m an investor. I was flipping houses before flipping houses was a term. So I made money in real estate before wrestling, so I’m doing that again, and I love it.”

Sting last appeared at the AEW All In pay-per-view back in August. Nonetheless, it’s great to hear that Sting will stick with AEW in the long run, so we will have to wait and see when he will return to AEW television again.
