WWE legend Lex Luger recently took to an episode of his Lex Expressed podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including attending “The Icon” Sting’s last match at AEW Revolution.
Luger said, “I had such a great time. I know he did. His family was all there in the back. I hadn’t seen his daughter Gracie for such a long time. It was just a wonderful night. I thought they did a great job with the sons coming out dressed up like him with the Surfer Sting and the Wolfpac Sting. It was really fun to be there. I got to actually go out in the crowd. I couldn’t get on camera, obviously because I’m under contract with WWE, but they said we could be there as long as we’re not on camera which I thought was classy by WWE for us guys that are under contract with them. AEW did a good job of keeping us out there. We could actually go out there and watch without us being on camera. The crowd response for his last match, they stayed with it. Sometimes toward the end of the night no matter how big the last match is, the crowd could lose their energy a little bit, but they are up for it. It was phenomenal. A+. Gold Star.”
On if we will get to see Sting again in some capacity in pro wrestling:
“I think he’s gonna take life as it comes for a little bit now.” “He loves what we do and I know he’s gonna stay involved with autographs and interacting with the fans that they send us out to. I foresee him [because] physically he could do it — eventually doing something. Not a bell-to-bell match but getting at the end of the match or something at a huge event or something and doing the Scorpion Death Drop or something like that, maybe on occasion.”
