So Crossfit Jesus broke Sting

Quote:

Sting's wrestling career is over ... TMZ Sports has learned.
Long story short ... the wrestling legend messed up his neck real bad at his "WWE Night of Champions" match against Seth Rollins back in September -- and was never able to recover.
Sources connected to Sting tell us he was evaluated by several doctors who all agree -- it's just too risky for the wrestler to get back in the squared circle ... so, he's decided to hang up his singlet.
We're told the 56-year-old was formally diagnosed with cervical spinal stenosis -- a condition affecting the nerves that can result in extreme pain and discomfort.
In fact, it's the same condition that forced fellow WWE superstar Edge to retire in 2011.
Our sources tell us Sting may make his official announcement next month at the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony in Texas ... but we're told it's a done deal.
As far as Sting's future -- it's up in the air. We're told Sting is open to a non-physical role with the company ... but we're told no formal offer has been made.
Sting was a legend in the ring ... rising to superstardom in the late '80s before becoming the face of the WCW and a huge fan favorite in the WWE.
#Respect
At least he got his Wrestlemania moment…

That Turnbuckle Powerbomb move Rollins does x2

road doggy dogg 03-17-2016 11:44 AM

that Sting himself admitted was his own fault for not tucking his chin

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-17-2016 11:45 AM

It sucks that he had to go out with such a brutal injury (though he's lucky it wasn't worse), but at 56-years-old, he shouldn't have been wrestling anymore, even though he's in good shape for a guy his age.

But RDD if you use the facts so accurately, people don't have anything to be outraged about, nor do they have anyone to blame.

I'm being flippant - I obviously don't attribute any blame to Rollins. As I've said on here on more than one occasion, Seth Rollins is the best in the business right now.

I just don't want to focus more on the point that he was brought in to play a part in WWE's final declaration to anyone who didn't already know that WWE is way, way better than WCW ever was.

road doggy dogg 03-17-2016 11:48 AM

oh okay, I can never tell which people in this forum are being muties or just taking the piss

Jari 03-17-2016 11:49 AM

I appreciate that tone doesn't always come across as intended on the internet

Big Vic 03-17-2016 11:53 AM

90% of the time someone is stealing the piss.

Heisenberg 03-17-2016 12:01 PM

and drinking it too

drave 03-17-2016 12:01 PM

And re-selling it on ebay

Evil Vito 03-17-2016 12:02 PM

At least he got a win in a WWE ring. Granted by shitty DQ on a throwaway episode of Raw but it still counts dammit.

Evil Vito 03-17-2016 12:02 PM

I'm actually seeing Sting this weekend, he's gonna be at a local indy show for a special appearance.

JimmyMess 03-17-2016 12:02 PM

what a career 0-2.

that's hall of fame worthy.

I kid, I kid. Pretty bummed, was looking forward to a sweet Sting run in WWE

Sepholio 03-17-2016 12:12 PM

Rollins is the best in the biz at injuring people.

"insufferable"

Shisen Kopf 03-17-2016 12:40 PM

He should change his name now to "Stung"

Jordan 03-17-2016 12:41 PM

It was better late than never. Regardless of his win loss record, it's really good that he got to shine in WWE and have that run, even if it was short lived. Kinda weird because Warrior in some ways was similar. After all the years of nobody thinking his return would ever happen, he finally makes amends and reconnects with Vince... and then he passed away a few days after his HOF induction. It's like both Sting and Warrior were vindicated at the end but taken to soon. Not that Sting really needed to be wrestling at his age, obviously (the career ending injury for example). But even at his at his work was really fun and the matches were good.

He got 2 wins, He made Seth tap in a tag team match right after.

2-2

Shisen Kopf 03-17-2016 01:12 PM

Guess we'll never see Surefer Sting vs Biker Taker now. What a waste.

slik 03-17-2016 01:16 PM

We could see Baseball Jersey Shane vs Biker Taker tho.

Big Vic 03-17-2016 01:35 PM

Surfer Sting vs Biker Taker

Staring contest ONLY!

Sucks. Sting is like my second favorite ever.

If they give Bryan 30mins Sting better get an hour.

Bad News Gertner 03-17-2016 05:48 PM

Simple Fan 03-18-2016 12:37 PM

Sucks, Sting is one of the greatest of all time and I hate how WWE used him. Honestly don't want to see him in a non wrestling role in WWE. I would rather he returned to TNA as a GM or something.

Or record a copy of all of Sting the artist's songs so they can just replace unintelligible words with wrestler Sting's snippets. Who'd be any the wiser.

Also, clearly we must now see Singer Sting v. Biker 'Taker ONLY, with Surfer Sting ONLY as special guest referee.

DTTS is from Florida so he probably secretly voted for Trump too. Everyone else there did.

Fuck no, nobody voted for Trump, it's an Illuminati trick.

Simple Fan 03-20-2016 12:42 PM

This is the a wrestling forum, fuck off with the politics. Anyone who votes in this election is retarded anyway. Not a candidate worth a vote.

Vince McMahon's wife ran for office.

Donald Trump is best friends with Vince McMahon, they're both fake billionaires, wrestling as is Washington D.C. is run by the Illuminati.
