Sting mentioned recently he’s concocted his endgame and it’s not a 1 on 1 match with Darby, so, I’m paying extra attention to things and wondering how Darby plays into it. Sting has been so, so good in AEW. In a Top Ten favorite things about AEW ever list, Sting and his run is easily in it.
Great segment. From both dudes.

I feel like Sting has somehow become underrated over the years. Dude is still legit.

When Sting goes out and does stuff like this, it baffles me how hiw WWE Run (And let's be honest parts of his TNA Run) were so butchered
When you let Sting be The Icon, he shows you why he got that name.

My earliest wrestling memory is being a little Stinger over 30 years ago. And as a fan, I can honestly say I never even imagined his run with AEW could be this good. Him and AEW have done so well to accentuate the positives he still has, and hide the shortcomings. Short bursts in matches, impactful spots, easy sympathy heat as the old man face in peril, Hulk out spots, jumping off of whatever, it all works. And best of all, it hasn't taken any shine off Darby or put him in the shadow. They are one of AEW's best success stories.

Sting is the closest thing in wrestling to the op old man anime character.

I loved this segment and it genuinely makes me think Darby might actually beat Joe.
Sting saying if he says Yes to Darby beating Joe than that puts a chip on his shoulder was a great line.

Wow what a promo by Sting. He still has it. As mentioned, AEW’s booking of Sting has been great, and my favorite part of the company so far.

Sting in AEW is probably up there with Terry Funk in ECW as the best example of a promotion booking a legend like a big deal but the legend caring enough about the promotion to not selfishly take advantage of that and actually shine up the young stars instead.

That was one hell of a pep talk from Sting.
Great segment, and it does make feel that Darby could regain the TNT title in his hometown.
