@keithmorgan3932 ... Seriously? Its a great list. I guarantee a large majority of the people who read this wouldn't have otherwise seen it. I know I wouldn't have and I'm just grateful somebody posted it for me to see....
I don't care what anyone says aew is today's version of wcw and i think the icon sting saw that and was drawn to it that's one reason why he went to aew. So, i think him retiring in aew was perfect in every along with retiring undefeated and as a champion which is how a wrestling legend who is loved and adored by millions of fans is supposed to retire. It was the perfect ending to a legendary career tony khan's booking has been very questionable but one thing i do respect him for is how he booked the icon sting. So i will gladly applaud him for that 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love how genuine Darby and Sting's relationship is. When they initially teamed up, I thought TK just wanted Sting attached to someone who'd make him look good and have entertaining matches with... So my first mistake was assuming Sting needed anybody to make him look good: this guy is doing insane things in the ring, and it's just exponentially more impressive considering his age and wrestling history. But to learn that these 2 athletes--wrestling generations apart from one another--have come together and carved out this incredibly unusual but also really fascinating space in the wrestling history books, each bringing their own innocence and experience to (and often through) the table... I just don't think we'll see another tag team quite like Sting and Darby Allin, and I'm really gonna miss this dynamic duo ❤
Much Respect for Darby he's being respectful and appreciative Sting took him under his wing teaching him how to be a professional not only in ring but out ! It's called giving back
Darby has the respect for sting that sting deserves that being said he's definitely going to put his body through hell trying to make sure this match is memorable
The name Sting in pop culture here we go ! First the singer from great Britain Gordon Sumner who was the leader of the rock band called the Police. Then the super hero named Pete Stanichick who was the leader of the Harbinger comic book team. And then you have Steve Borden the professional wrestler. All three of them were and are WINNERS !
This is the first time watching Darby outside the ring. I was telling my co-host Bug Stu yesterday after our toy show that I had just watched 6hrs of the Sting and Darby AEW timeline yesterday morning before the show while working so that I could see all that they pair had done. I've been a huge Sting fan for decades and even have a toy figure. I told Big Stu that I see Darby as a young Jeff Hardy due to his style of wrestling as I am also a huge Jeff fan. So thank you for this interview both of you.
10:10 I agree with Darby i loved that AEW basically built the PPV around Sting final match and let him choose the time, place and opponents to retire Contrast that to 2019 when Kurt Angle announced his retirement and every single fan begged WWE to let John Cena be his final opponent to close the circle of his and Cena carrer, even Kurt and Cena said they wanted that match to happen but Vince for some reason that he only knows wasted that by putting Baron Corbin against Kurt and Cena in a segment with Elias wasting a huge feel good moment for Kurt and the fans,
I wasn't sure what to make of darby at first.......he has done pretty good so far. He complimented stings style well. He was a good little push for sting too ........i hope he slows down a bit himself. He takes some pretty crazy risks. That glass spot was unnecessary. Nobody will remember it. Id like to see him around in ten years down the road. Stay well Darby
I would add Sabu to that daredevil list but Darbs gave a lot of good choices and you see Mt Rushmore needs another mountain to fit them and guess what Darby will be on it one day too if he ever wins a singles world title.
That means so much! I'm doing my best to get this channel active again after a really slow 2023, but there are LOTS of past interviews you can check out in the meantime :)
lol, still with this stuff? who cares?? i ask you, WHO THE HECK CARES???? dude retired, boo hoo, not the end of the world! grown men, please move on! lol!
That was one of the best ppv’s ever literally every match was amazing other then the women’s match everything else was amazing especially stings match I def had some tears flowing sting has always been my favorite wrestler I wouldn’t be watching wrestling if not for sting, seeing him for the first time in wcw was in 96-97 for me and I was instantly gravitated to him he is a total legend and I don’t care what anybody think imo he’s the greatest wrestler ever!!!
well we know he's gonna win, I doubt Tony Kahn and the young bucks wanna get stabbed.... could you imagine after what HHH and WWE did to sting if AWE does something similar.......lol

That's a WILD list of accomplishments
I saw this somewere else all you did was copy and paste.....smh
I think you forgot the first ever ICON!!! STING!!!!!
..... but could he tap dance?

He always took good care of Sting IMO

Amazing how well they connected :)
Much Respect for Darby he's being respectful and appreciative Sting took him under his wing teaching him how to be a professional not only in ring but out ! It's called giving back
I love the friendship those two have developed
It also is awesome when the younger guys accept the positive and negative with grace humility and grateful.
I love that Darby has inherited the "it's showtime" catchphrase
Love that it'll be continued
Darby has the respect for sting that sting deserves that being said he's definitely going to put his body through hell trying to make sure this match is memorable
I love their relationship. Can't wait to see this match
Sting is literally the polar opposite to a lot of the legends that turn their noses to the newer generation. I wish Sting a very happy retirement.
He's earned it! :)
The name Sting in pop culture here we go ! First the singer from great Britain Gordon Sumner who was the leader of the rock band called the Police. Then the super hero named Pete Stanichick who was the leader of the Harbinger comic book team. And then you have Steve Borden the professional wrestler. All three of them were and are WINNERS !
I should name my kid Sting 😂
Darby you are the unicorn of wrestling. Best of the best be proud of yourself. You are unique ❤
Definitely one-of-a-kind!
I watched the countdown for Revolution at AEW’s channel and I cannot stop crying. 😢 Sting will leave us soon.
They did a great job with that video
I like Darby, dude puts it all on the line like Foley did.
He's a wild MFer haha
This is the first time watching Darby outside the ring.

I really appreciate that! Thank so much for leaving the kind words and I hope you tune in for more :)
my man darby
Great stuff, mate!!
So glad you liked it! More to come I hope
3 great guys. 👍 Sting, Darby and Shak
Haha that's very kind of you
10:10 I agree with Darby i loved that AEW basically built the PPV around Sting final match and let him choose the time, place and opponents to retire

Great poin
swear darby looks like a young eminem
He looks like sting also 👀 lol
LOOOL I see it
I wasn't sure what to make of darby at first.......he has done pretty good so far. He complimented stings style well. He was a good little push for sting too ........i hope he slows down a bit himself. He takes some pretty crazy risks. That glass spot was unnecessary. Nobody will remember it. Id like to see him around in ten years down the road. Stay well Darby
I hope he takes care of himself but I will definitely remember that glass spot haha
Thank you Darby for being his tag team partner in his last match
It was an awesome match
Sold me on the PPV right here.
I'm happy to hear that!
Darby Allin will continue Sting's legandary legacy 💀🦂❤
So cool to see!
Watched Sting from start ( UWF) too NWA/WCW , WWE, AEW awesome career thank you Steve 💯
Put some respect in his name!! It’s sting not Steve
Sting is the man! So cool you've witnessed all of it
Darby is AEW. Even more than MJF. Needs to be the main guy at some point.
I LOVED his early TNT title reigns
Is he though?
@@user-mu2mp8ll6cI don't know after seeing Will Ospreay this weekend. He might be the new face. Must see.
Good luck and happiness and peaceful retirement ❤
Agreed!
Darby lucky man to tag team with sting
Seriously. I love the friendship they've formed
I would add Sabu to that daredevil list but Darbs gave a lot of good choices and you see Mt Rushmore needs another mountain to fit them and guess what Darby will be on it one day too if he ever wins a singles world title.
Sabu is definitely on that list! Also Terry Funk
lets be honest, sting is the goat. he guy has no equal, it will be a very dark day once he hangs up his bat.
Sting RULES
You are a great person Darby!
He's a solid dude for sure
"You only get 1 shot at a retirement match"
Young man, have you ever heard of a guy named Terry Funk?
Truth!
Good interview man,ima sub.
Welcome aboard! Hoping to be more active with the channel this year :)
Kurt Angle won a gold medal with a BROKEN FREAKIN' NECK!
Watch that match.
The Iranian clearly won.
No disrespect to Kurt but that match was fixed.
Yes he did haha
I just subbed an awesome interview I'll be tuning in for more for sure ❤❤❤❤❤✌️✌️✌️✌️
That means so much! I'm doing my best to get this channel active again after a really slow 2023, but there are LOTS of past interviews you can check out in the meantime :)
@@ShakWrestling I remember watching Stings first match in the Jim Crockett NWA in the 80’s with my dad. Sting was great. Great video AEW did it rite!
Thank you, Darby!
They all did great!
STING will be at Rivercity Wrestle Con!

STING FOR THE AEW HALL OF FAME. 🏆
Oh for sure!
Oh Lord. Don't give Tony any ideas about a Hall of Fame......he will be inducting Orange Cassidy and danhausen
@@user-mu2mp8ll6c so?
👍
Jesse Pinkman
I need for Sting actual last match to be Vs Darby or against Taker i wont accept The Young Bucks (as good as they are doing)
Correction. Sting wasn't planning on retiring to the Buckeroos and Tony's bad booking
lol, still with this stuff? who cares?? i ask you, WHO THE HECK CARES???? dude retired, boo hoo, not the end of the world! grown men, please move on! lol!
That was one of the best ppv’s ever literally every match was amazing other then the women’s match everything else was amazing especially stings match I def had some tears flowing sting has always been my favorite wrestler I wouldn’t be watching wrestling if not for sting, seeing him for the first time in wcw was in 96-97 for me and I was instantly gravitated to him he is a total legend and I don’t care what anybody think imo he’s the greatest wrestler ever!!!
I hope AEW can keep up the momentum! It was a great show
Ring boys wear makeup now?
Please don't project your fetishes onto decent human beings.
well we know he's gonna win, I doubt Tony Kahn and the young bucks wanna get stabbed.... could you imagine after what HHH and WWE did to sting if AWE does something similar.......lol
I bet it'll come down to how Sting wants to go out
Especially in N.C, Greensboro definitely.
