On March 3rd, 2024, Sting will wrestle his final match at AEW Revolution and officially retire. On that note, there has been a lot of discussion around whom he should face, and how he should go out. Notably, the Young Bucks’ return on last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite seemed to suggest that the Jackson brothers may be eyeing up Darby Allin & Sting.

However, the ‘Stinger’ and his teammate appear to have eyes on tag team gold before the curtain is dropped on his iconic career. Later in the same show as the aforementioned segment, Sting and Darby Allin appeared in a video package, with ‘the Daredevil’ explaining that he wants the ‘Icon’ to retire with gold around his waist.

The AEW Tag Team Championships are currently being held by Big Bill & Ricky Starks, but with reports that Starks could make his way to WWE before the end of the year, it wouldn’t be too surprising to see Allin & Sting holding the titles going into Revolution. An emotional title retention against the Young Bucks in North Carolina would be the perfect footnote to an incredible 40-year career.
