Sting has been one of the most powerfully booked stars on the AEW roster. Despite his age, The Icon has generally been seen demolishing his opponents despite overwhelming odds. His experience is quite apparent during his matches, as he still goes for high-risk moves on certain occasions.
On this week's Dynamite, Sting teamed up with Darby Allin and Orange Cassidy to take on Kip Sabian, the Butcher and the Blade. At one point in the match, he was forced to face all three of the opponents simultaneously. However, Sting was still able to dominate his opponents while Darby joined in to even the odds.

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
Apart from reporting on pro wrestling, Shubhajit enjoys competitive gaming and reading.
