Sting got me into TNA, He was one of the pillars of the company

[@christophermccray6528]

Same here.

[@elijahhill6602]

⁠Me frickin’ three.

[@obsoletechannelarchive]

We called them "originals" back then... "Pillars" is an AEW term

[@slayer21121]

Literally same but being born in 96 I was too young for the attitude era and started watching WWE in 2003 not aware of WCW and Sting as a whole so one day in 2007 I was flipping channels, landed on TNA and saw the six sided ring and Sting cutting a promo and thought he was the coolest looking mf ever lol, got me hooked on TNA and became a Sting fan

[@juggalogamer8541]

Same

[@TheNaturalPatHarris]

Sting was just as important to TNA as Angle or Styles

[@lostintheark5728]

And Samoa Joe

[@derjude5758]

Sting and Angle are the sole reasons I watched

[@NotaLocal_]

@@CarlEvans-zw7dzikr but dude was like a 6 time Tna world champion

[@jackson5781]

As well was Bobby Roode

[@marcohavokkhaos]

And Jeff Hardy

[@machohypeman]

Happy Sting found success after WCW. I really hope he wins on Sunday and retires as champion.

[@christophermccray6528]

Samesies

[@andrewquest2537]

Yes!

[@youtubeuserxix]

He really needs to

[@timothyhaltner8877]

He's back in wrestling again??

[@TihetrisWeathersby]

Even in his older years Sting was on top of his game

[@WweetBeef]

makes wwe really wonder how they booked sting wrong

[@christiandwyer2735]

I grew up on Sting in TNA. His battles with Jeff Jarrett, his story with Abyss, the Main Event Mafia, him vs Immortal and Aces and Eights, everything. It’s gonna be sad to see him retire, but he’s earned the right to go out on his terms.

[@emmanuelleander]

2:00:39 "The Joker" Sting was GOLD. Wish that WWE would have use it in 2016 on Seth & Triple H segments.

[@ryanpulliam8987]

I mean... That segment with Seths statue saw a little joker sting

[@emmanuelleander]

Correct for a small period of time. WWE should continue it on to the PPV.

[@teetemz]

Sting is an absolute legend. One of the greatest wrestlers of all time and one of my childhood heroes ever since WCW

[@Rollyboy141]

THANK YOU STING 🦂 I didn’t get the chance to watch WCW live, but during this mans TNA run, I understood why this man is highly respected and talked about being an Icon. Thank you Sting for all the memories. 🦂🦂

[@lfcspectre4335]

TNA Hall Of Famer Sting 🙌

[@rossfranklin2782]

The man was the icon of two companies really WCW & TNA and had a really memorable run in AEW. Congrats on a great career Sting!!

[@marskingdoms]

[@Adityasingha9]

Sting and Kurt Angle made me love TNA along with WWE when I was a kid

[@patrickplummer1027]

Thank you, Sting

[@MPPharaoh]

Sting 🦂 gotta arguably be the best wrestler ever. At his age he still put on great matches back then and until it was over recently. I’m a miss Steve in the wrestling industry.

[@PsyberKing48]

[@marskingdoms]

Sunday is when Every wrestling company Tune in AEW to watch Sting's last match ❤

[@ChristianAlbert]

Joker Sting was AWESOME!

[@Superman_305]

It didn't matter if it was wcw, tna, or now with aew the icon sting always puts on an awesome show and give the fans their money's worth and more. He is the reason why i became a wrestling fan and it really, truly is going to be a sad day when he retires this sunday. 😢

[@vrdragon12]

When i heard Sting was coming to TNA in 2006, I had serious chills. He was someone wrestling was truly missing at that time and when he arrived, it was something special for sure. Over time he adapted and went through a couple of cool transformations with the facepaint and all of it was fun to watch. Sting made TNA special. Happy retirement to the Icon.

[@Migz2023]

I’ve been a fan of sting since i was a kid back in the wcw days

JOKER STING 4-LIFE !!!

[@dantepanik6069]

Sting was that father figure we didn't have as children in the 90s. I appreciate Sting more than he'll ever know.

[@BFK4LIFE]

We'll miss ya Steve!!!! Sting in WCW is a huge reason why I enjoyed watching wrestling......and the fact that he did it for so long and never changed his gimmick(cept MEM). Sunday will be a sad day for us wrestling fans, I'm glad the dude is still alive to do it one last time!! 🦂

[@mknightstalkerx]

It's sting!!!!. Thank you sting.

[@ayokunlecoker3162]

Thank You Sting

[@marskingdoms]

Christian Cage should've had a match with a Sting in AEW.... Edit: The Icon Sting and Darby Allin had multiple match and rivalries with Christian Cage and his team👍

[@mellowlando2017]

Trios match at full gear 2023

[@ashleyburns6752]

Remember turning on the Wrestling Channel in the UK around 04 and seeing Sting on this thing called “TNA” and I was a TNA fan from then on.

[@derjude5758]

Try 2006.

Sting's TNA run doesn't seem like it was that long ago. I remember a lot of this stuff vividly.

[@zurin6556]

Thank You Scorpions 🦂

[@jakekoehler1]

I wish TNA would have let AEW use some footage for one of the many Sting tribute videos. What a career 🦂

[@jamiealbon633]

Sting got me into wcw crow

[@danielvuong]

Goodbye sting, thank you for all of the memories

[@KC88383]

Thank you Sting. Enjoy your retirement. We'll miss seein you in the squared circle.

[@KadeemG61]

There’s no ordinary wrestler quite like Sting. Congrats to an incredible career, Steve.

[@marskingdoms]

Sting is about to have his last match in AEW. WWE and TNA should give him an honorary award something

[@vonVile]

TNA should erase Sting's last AEW match by putting him in a match against Josh Alexander.

[@yankee_tango]

Sting is already in WWE's and TNA's Halls of Fame, I think he already has the award of which you speak.

[@marskingdoms]

When I was kid I always thought Sting is Bruce Lee's son, Brandon Lee...Rip both

[@lostintheark5728]

Is it me or 2006 TNA crowd looks bigger than AEW and NXT live crowds combined?

[@KAZ3EM]

Never knew that sting played omage to the hitman in a TNA promo,in kayfabe and calls Bret the best athlete in this sport and respect and dignity,what Bret craved and he craves now!!! This kind of promos where reality and fiction gets blurred and the respect that sting gives,gives me the goosebumps moments in pro wrestling! I love that stuff a lot!

[@golagold9610]

WWE missed The Icon Sting

[@MofongoJones]

very well played, TNA!

[@stevenblank4793]

Not ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow my childhood officially dies. Thank you sting!! For the years of memories! For making me fall in love with wrestling!! For giving me that bond with my dad. Thank you

[@daniellewolf3697]

Sting Should Have NEVER Left TNA

[@Rollyboy141]

We can’t blame him. He chose not to renew. TNA under Dixie was falling apart in its later years. Thank goodness he felt before they got kicked off Spike TV

[@marcortega8897]

Classic moment!!🤣🤣🤣

[@rossfranklin2782]

2:10:06 what a great pop and moment in the history of TNA

[@josuehernandez097]

His final match AEW revolution I hope he retires as a tag team champion i’ve been watching Sting from his wcw days

[@easleycardell]

Crazy TNA gave us some memories memory especially after wwe went down hill from 08-10

[@KAZ3EM]

What a stunning Run and career! I didn't saw the WWE and AEW stuff, yet! Most impressiv is that crow sting was more a dark night persona. To combine that with joker sting is like the batman who laughs. Steve is a genius!

[@jonathanmendoza2189]

I think I'm gonna cry after see all this 😢 sting we always get you in our hearts, everyone can say thank and thank you over and over again but, this will never be forgotten because, you give us a lot of things that other wrestlers never do, so I kist want to say, we love you Icon Sting 🦂 be safe whatever you be now

Thanks Dixie!

[@rkontna]

[@Real-Ma89]

[@SWyrick366]

"And you too!!!!!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@NewfieAsianKid]

Sting is such an amazing wrestler and even a great actor when it comes to promos. Not too familiar with his WCW career since I first gotten into wrestling during Ruthless Aggression, but when I was introduced to TNA, that was when I was introduced to Sting. I remembered him with that promo segment he had with Hulk Hogan in the office (during the Immortal storyline), when he tossed all the office supplies and threaten Hogan and applying make up on him (which was the introduction to his Joker gimmick). Man, that was literally the best promo segment I ever seen. It sent chills down my spine!

[@silgarf]

Funny how he said final resolution first match in 5 years meanwhile he match matches in every yr prior lol

[@ILLeeT36]

Stings Tna run was the best run of his career

[@GBravo-op2bf]

this video its pure gold.. thank u TNA

[@terrancebryant8579]

This is the TNA era i miss Sting helped made TNA 💯‼️

[@L.m.CeeTee]

This video has more viewership than an Episode of Impact on AXS TV

[@VSwagBoyMusic]

Living Legend ❤❤❤

[@emmanuelleander]

21:05 That "Oooooooooooooo" reaction 😅😎

[@Mo-gg8ts]

THANK YOU FOR THE UPLOAD

[@piyangshudas5340]

Dixie Carter destroyed TNA

[@lawandabailey7480]

If you think about it, Dixie did the same thing Triple H did. Double dose of betrayal.😢

[@theneighborhoodvideos4029]

How if she created it

[@johnnyking5145]

sting mic skills are great

[@Snyper1405]

They are okay

[@cerebralsamurai8382]

Dude was a top guy in both WCW and TNA and wrestled in three other promotions NWA, WWE, and AEW that is truly legendary

[@Snyper1405]

What's legendary is that he had to keep changing companies?? 😂 Nobody's had a stellar career under the same company with pretty much the same gimmick as the undertaker 😈

[@Azphreal]

Notice no Sting/Jeff rematch as the fight was not long enough to have a clip lol.

[@JMB1017]

Holy run-in overdose

[@diegocoronado4445]

Estamos a nada del final de la carrera de esta leyenda, es bueno revivir su etapa en TNA

[@davidkay7644]

One thing is for certain, Sting definitely can be one of if not the best and unforgettable wrestlers in TNA history prior to WWE and AEW.

[@jackson5781]

Sting Angle AJ Styles and Bobby Roode made me watch TNA

[@GhostRider-mm6ky]

The goat in my opinion

[@SpiderGang56]

An incredible career ending tonight will be sad to watch😢 I first saw Sting for his first run in WWE and his aura was very different from any other superstar. I am glad to have witnessed his run in WWE and now to see it end in AEW❤

[@gagandeepsingh8190]

The legend the Icon Itsss STINGGGG

[@sons714native4]

The last hour of this video is hard to watch. Smh.
