According to TMZ, Sting’s wrestling career is over. Sting hurt his neck badly during his match with Seth Rollins at Night of Champions, and after being evaluated by several doctors, they have agreed that it would be too risky for him to wrestle again. Sting has been diagnosed with cervical spinal stenosis, which is a condition affecting the nerves that can result in extreme pain and discomfort. If that sounds familiar, it is because this is the same condition that led to Edge’s retirement.

Word is that he may officially announce his retirement at the Hall of Fame ceremony next month. As for his future, Sting is reportedly open to a non-physical role with the company, but TMZ says that no specific role has been offered.

Commentary, Manager or Authority Figure. Imo he'd be an awesome RAW GM.

if it means the authority is gone i wouldn't mind

Sting

– Despite reports to the contrary, Sting has not retired. TMZ caught up with the 2016 WWE Hall of Famer and asked him about the report this past week that his neck was too badly injured from his match with Seth Rollins at Night of Champions to continue his career, and he said that’s just a rumor.

“My neck is okay. I’m not officially retired. There’s a lot of rumors out there, but I’m not officially retired,” he told the reporter.

Thank Zod!

People seem to think he's waiting till the HOF to actually announce it, and not want some trash news outlet like TMZ to be the one to do so.

I'm hoping he's not retiring yet lol.
