WWE Hall of Famer not attending Sting's final AEW match due to his close friendship with Triple H, predicts veteran (Exclusive)
Wrestling veteran Bill Apter may have predicted the reason behind a WWE Hall of Famer not attending Sting's farewell match at AEW Revolution 2024.
The Hall of Famer in question is none other than Kevin Nash. Big Daddy Cool recently revealed that he will not be present for Sting's last match due to his association with the Stamford-based promotion. The Icon and Darby Allin are set to defend their AEW World Tag Team Title against Nicholas & Mathew Jackson (The Young Bucks) at Revolution on March 3.
Speaking with Mac Davis on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine, Bill Apter noted how Nash's close friendship with Triple H could have been the reason behind him not appearing at AEW Revolution:
"Remember though with Kevin Nash, one of his closest friends is the main man in WWE Triple H and I think it's a line that he's not crossing also because of the relationship with him." [6:06 - 6:24]
