Maybe he isn't planning to live long. It's not about quantity, it's about quality and no one has a better quality of life than The King.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

His podcast is fairly broad but mostly film/TV criticism, with a rare episode about wrestling every now and then. I remember he had willow nightingale on before she showed up in aew.

Most of his audience doesn't follow wrestling at all, and I can't imagine many that do are willing to follow him down the cm punk truther rabbit hole hes burrowed into.

Also posting deliberately insane hot takes and then blocking everyone who pushes back is not a good way to cultivate engagement.

If Mae Young can go through a table at, like, 80, I'm pretty sure Sting can do a cool table bump if he feels comfortable with it.

It's so silly, I swear these people think wrestlers are pressured into dangerous spots nowadays or something when it's clearly Sting himself going "hey wasn't that a sick table bump guys"

AEW should start advertising Sting matches as being Too Hot For TV. Sell a Blu-Ray of last night's Dynamite and say it's the night Sting was ready to go to Hell and take Sammy with him.

I NEED AEW compilations done in the style of bootleg VHS tapes. Add all the bloodiest matches and then a compilation of crazy Sting spots set to hard rock, all complete with title cards and bad 3D transitions.
