On a recent edition of his “Lex Express” podcast, Lex Luger discussed the impending retirement of Sting and how he believes the Icon could still return for special appearances from time to time.
Luger said, “Not to give anything away about our private conversations but I kinda already knew he was really considering wrapping it up, as far as wrestling matches. He hasn’t told me this but I feel like the condition he stays in, the way he looks, his character, he could still come back and lock somebody up in a Scorpion [Deathlock]. I’m not sure he wants to do that, he might just want to do a clean [break].”
Luger also noted that he’d love to be there for Sting’s retirement at AEW Revolution 2024 in March, but isn’t sure whether WWE would allow it due to his contract. He said,
“I don’t know if I’m gonna be able to do it. I’m under contract to WWE as an ambassador.“
