A recent update from PWInsider has shared information about Sting’s future with AEW.

Potential storyline for Sting in AEW following his retirement
After retiring at AEW Revolution as a tag team champion with Darby Allin, Sting could transition into a compelling role within AEW. One potential storyline could see him as Darby Allin’s manager upon Allin’s return from injury. Making special appearances during Allin’s significant matches to provide guidance and support.
Alternatively, he could take on a backstage role, utilizing his experience and wisdom, which could be beneficial for All Elite Wrestling. He could possibly contribute to the strategic direction of storylines or even mentor younger talents to build a great future for AEW.
This shift could showcase The Icon’s influence and value in wrestling. He can create exciting opportunities for character development and storytelling currently needed in the promotion.
