The icon known as Sting, alongside others, was gifted a commemorative, engraved baseball bat to mark the end of his in-ring career at the AEW Revolution 2024 event.
Back in October of last year, Sting announced he would be retiring at the Revolution pay-per-view. Choosing Revolution as the event to end his career was a significant one for the Stinger, who made his wrestling debut for AEW at the very same event in 2021.
It was fitting that Sting's retirement took place in Greensboro, North Carolina, a city he competed in countless times during his days with the NWA and World Championship Wrestling.

Sting has a handful of memories inside the Greensboro Coliseum ahead of his final match. The Icon was the cornerman for Lex Luger at WrestleWar 1990.
In the main event of the show, Luger unsuccessfully challenged NWA World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair, who was accompanied by Woman.
In the main event of the December 22, 2021, edition of AEW Dynamite, Sting teamed with CM Punk and Darby Allin to defeat MJF and FTR.
