Various: Sting on Who Could Bring Him Out of Retirement, New Japan Cup, Indies

Sting Comments on Which Opponent Could Bring Him Out of Retirement

Wrestling Travel held a recent interview with Sting and one of the topics discussed included which opponent he would be willing to come out of retirement for one last match.

“I mean, everyone knows who it would be. Taker, he’s the only guy I’d come out of retirement for now. No one else. We could just never get it together to make it happen. When I started talking to WWE he was booked with Brock and then I did the deal with Triple H and he had another feud going on at the time, so it was just one of those things we couldn’t make happen. But I don’t regret it not happening either, I mean I got to face Triple H at my first WrestleMania and then wrestle Seth for the world title, so I didn’t do too badly out of that deal. But yeah, now, the only person I’m getting back in the ring for is Taker.”
