Sting’s WWE career was short, but his legacy in professional wrestling is undeniable. With his longtime ally Lex Luger set for Hall of Fame honors, speculation is growing about whether The Icon will return for the occasion.
According to reports, Luger and his camp made it clear that Sting was their top choice to induct him. WWE is reportedly in discussions to make it happen, though Sting’s AEW status remains a factor. While he is currently under a Legends-style deal with AEW, it is unknown if the company would permit him to appear on WWE programming.
Initially, Sting planned a brief visit to Las Vegas during WrestleMania week. However, sources indicate that his stay has been extended, fueling further speculation that something significant is in the works.
Eric Bischoff addressed the situation, shutting down concerns that WWE would block Sting’s involvement due to his AEW ties. He emphasized that if Luger requested Sting, WWE would welcome him without hesitation.
If Sting does appear, it will mark his first WWE television presence since his 2016 Hall of Fame induction. It will make for an emotional moment with Luger and a major headline during the WrestleMania weekend.
