Ranking Every WWE To AEW Move From Worst To Best

5. Sting

Simply put, a performer coming in at the ripe-old age of 63 years-old, who has put his body through the wringer for nearly four decades and was all-but retired just a few years ago has absolutely zero right to be enjoying the sort of in-ring spell a certain Icon is at this moment in time.

But fast forward a year-and-a-half from one of the most jaw-dropping arrivals in AEW history at Winter is Coming 2020, and the fact fans are still being treated to the sight of Sting soaring from up high and battering half the All Elite roster is enough to bring a tear to your eye.

Far from simply being a veteran who refuses to relinquish the spotlight, Stinger's aura enhances just about everything he touches, with Darby Allin's stock rising from the minute he was paired with the WCW legend and each programme involving the star, signed with WWE until May of 2020, being heightened by his presence.

Used sparingly and effectively, Sting's AEW renaissance has been a thing of beauty.
