Sting wrestled his final match at AEW Revolution, and the pro wrestling world reacted in a big way. Despite his time in WWE, it seems that the company forgot to give The Stinger his flowers.
Pro wrestlers, fans, and companies from all over the world sent out tributes to Sting. WWE was not one of the companies that sent out a message, and this was noticed in a big way.
WWE No-Sells Sting\'s Retirement
Sting and Darby Allin took on The Young Bucks in the final match of Revolution. That was a brutal glass-filled match, and tons of action went down. In the end, Sting and Darby Allin walked out of the building as champions.
NJPW, NOAH, TNA, and AEW sent out tributes to Sting. Plenty of other pro wrestling fans also sent out their favorite memories from The Icon. WWE was radio silent, as they did not give him any sort of tribute on any platform.
The fact is that WWE owns a majority of Sting\'s career. They have the video libraries from practically every company Sting ever traveled through in their database. WWE could have put out a fantastic tribute video, but they decided not to.

What\'s Next for Sting
Sting said he\'s done with in-ring competition, and he doesn\'t really have any interest in becoming a coach. We will have to see what he does next, but the 64-year-old legend will get some time to enjoy his retirement now.
We will have to see if Sting gets any flowers at all during WWE RAW this week. Then again, the company is well on the road to WrestleMania 40 at this point, so odds are they are preoccupied and won\'t be sending out any tribute for Sting.
SEScoops will have continued coverage of this story, just in case there are more updates. Sting will be missed, but he certainly left it all in the ring as he inspired generations to come.
Thank you, Sting.
