Sting says "The Nature Boy" will be with him every step of the way as he rides into the sunset in AEW.
As Sting prepares to wind down his career, with his last match taking place at AEW Revolution 2024, Flair arrived in All Elite Wrestling on the October 25 AEW Dynamite and declared that he wants to be with Sting for this final chapter in his career.
Sting has taken to social media to say that Flair will indeed be with him every step of the way on this journey and he plans on going out in a blaze of glory with one of his great mentors.
He put me on the map in the very beginning, and @RicFlairNatrBoy is going to be with me every step of the way to the end, and we’ll go out together in a blaze of glory!

While Ric Flair's career in the '80s was synonymous with names like Dusty Rhodes and Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, his career in the '90s was heavily linked to Sting.
From Sting capturing his first World Championship from Ric Flair at the 1990 WCW Great American Bash to Sting and Flair wrestling on the first and last editions of WCW Monday Nitro, "The Stinger" and "The Nature Boy" have entire chapters of their careers dedicated solely to their rivalry.
Now, this last chapter will be dedicated to their connection as legends who respect one another.
Christian Cage, however, has no respect for Ric Flair. "Naitch" has already warned Christian not to make this about him and take his eye off the ball. Learn more here.
One thing is for sure, Sting plans on his last match being a tag team match and Darby Allin will be involved. Learn more here.
