Eric Bischoff on AEW star Sting's lack of trust in WWE
Wrestling veteran Eric Bischoff shared his insights on AEW star Sting's perspective towards WWE. Bischoff believed that The Icon had a lack of trust in the global wrestling powerhouse.
During a recent episode of his 83 Weeks podcast, Eric Bischoff revealed Sting's mindset regarding WWE.
"Look, he had a couple conversations over the years with WWE, but he never pulled the trigger. I think it was just because he didn’t get himself to trust the process, I guess, in WWE. He just didn’t feel comfortable. So, it didn’t surprise me,” Bischoff said.
Sting distanced himself from WWE throughout his career. However, he surprised the wrestling world with his debut appearance in November 2014.
Unfortunately, his in-ring journey was cut short after a WWE title match against Seth Rollins at Night of Champions in 2015.
