During an interview with The David Difference at the 58th Annual Cauliflower Alley Club Reunion, Sting was asked to comment on what was next after his retirement from wrestling.
The former AEW World Tag Team Champion, who made his exit from the business after teaming one last time with Darby Allin against the Young Bucks at the Revolution pay-per-view in March, noted some of the particulars regarding a new deal with the company:
I signed a multi-year deal with AEW, obviously not to wrestle anymore, but it’s like a licensing deal, a legends deal if you want to call it that. So I’ll do appearances with them on and off, depending on what they want and all. I’ve done real estate, I did real estate before I ever was a pro wrestler, so I’ve always loved real estate. A lot of people say, ‘Oh, are you a real estate agent?’ No, I’m not an agent. I’m an investor. I was flipping houses before flipping houses was a term. So I made money in real estate before wrestling, so I’m doing that again, and I love it.
Sting showed up at the All In pay-per-view emanating from Wembley Stadium in August, saving Darby Allin from an attack by the Young Bucks and Jack Perry following a coffin match for the TNT Championship.
There is no word as of this writing whether the Icon will return to AEW programming.
