The ‘Icon’ Sting is finally retiring from wrestling after an illustrious career that ran decades. The AEW star and wrestling legend will be retiring after having his final match at AEW Revolution 2024. And in order to make the event special he has asked a few of his peers to be a part of the show.

One such name that he asked to be a part of the event was Triple H‘s close friend Kevin Nash, who recently revealed in an interview of why he cannot be a part of the event despite wanting to.

Kevin Nash will miss Sting’s retirement

On AEW Dynamite, the retirement match of Sting at Revolution 2024, the next pay-per-view of All Elite Wrestling, has been confirmed. After several months of speculation, Sting and Darby Allin will face The Young Bucks in a Tornado Tag-Team match that will headline the AEW show in Greensboro. The matchup became official when The Icon and The Daredevil accepted the challenge of Nicholas and Matthew Jackson. Speaking about a phone invitation Kevin Nash received from the Icon, the former revealed why he won’t be a part of it. And it has to do with his closeness with Triple H and the WWE. He said, “He asked me to be a part of it, and I just said that you know because of my positioning with the company, with WWE I couldn’t, you know. I mean, couldn’t even be there in the crowd. I went in the crowd; it would be you know. I just think he wanted me to be there because I was just one of the guys that’s SP with him the whole you know the whole run right? You know,  I think he was disappointed I mean, I was disappointed. But I just, I knew. You know when you ask and there’s that three-four-second pause and it’s just like okay.”

Sting and Darby Allin were crowned the new All Elite Wrestling Tag Team Champions on AEW Dynamite last week. The duo took the straps after defeating Ricky Starks and Big Bill. Sting and Darby Allin won the AEW World Tag Team Championships for the first time in their careers, and this is also the first title held by The Icon in over twelve years. This also made him the oldest to win the title. Big Bill and Ricky Starks end a reign of 123 days and three successful defenses that began in the AEW Collision.
