Eric Bischoff Critiques Sting’s AEW Promo: Missed Opportunities

Published on

The Emotional Highs and Production Lows of Sting’s Address

Summary


– Eric Bischoff praises Sting’s emotional promo on AEW Dynamite, calling it one of the best of Sting’s career.

– Bischoff critiques AEW for presenting Sting’s moment as an afterthought, suggesting it lacked proper emphasis.

– The wrestling icon suggests changes to the promo’s setting for greater authenticity, arguing the production style detracted from the message.

Eric Bischoff shared his insights on Sting’s recent promo on AEW Dynamite, which he regards as one of the wrestling legend’s best. The promo, delivered just before Sting’s last match, was meant to be a poignant moment for fans and the wrestler alike. While moved by the words and sentiment, Bischoff felt AEW didn’t give the moment the spotlight it deserved, hinting at a missed opportunity to maximize the impact of Sting’s words.

Bischoff’s main critique revolves around the production choices for the promo. He believes the setting — a backstage area with specific mood lighting and ambiance — detracted from the authenticity of Sting’s message. Bischoff said a simpler, more realistic environment would have enhanced the promo’s believability and emotional weight. He argues that the elaborate setup made Sting’s heartfelt address feel like an afterthought rather than a centerpiece of the episode.

Despite these criticisms, Bischoff acknowledges the power of Sting’s delivery and the content of his speech. He suggests that without the distractions of the chosen backdrop, the promo could have stood out even more as a memorable and impactful moment in wrestling history. Bischoff’s perspective highlights a common challenge in wrestling storytelling: finding the right balance between character development, narrative impact, and production values.
