Sting recently revealed that his career will come to an end at AEW's Revolution pay-per-view next year. The Icon will still be active in the wrestling world leading up to this, and he was set to make an appearance outside the walls of Tony Khan's company come 2024.
Squared Circle Expo broke the news on X/Twitter, sharing that the multi-time world champion will make a special appearance at their event in March 2024.
"Appearing SATURDAY ONLY thanks to Prime Time Appearances, it is with great pleasure that we announce the addition of WWE Hall of Famer and AEW Superstar, THE ICON, STING to the superstar roster for #SCX2024, happening March 29-30, 2024!"
While this may not be the capacity many die-hard fans were hoping to see the Stinger in as he nears the end of his career, this is still a great opportunity for fans to rub shoulders with the legend.

More so, who's to tell what's in store for the 64-year-old from an in-ring perspective between now and his eventual final match?
Who will be Sting's final opponent?
After decades in the spotlight and countless highlight moments, The Icon deserves to go out with a bang, and choosing the right dance partner for such an occasion will go a long way to ensuring this happens.
Many names have been proposed, but the most intriguing would have to be the long-awaited bout with Darby Allin. Having mentor and protégé go head-to-head in a massive pay-per-view singles match would be an awesome way to tie off the veteran's career and pass the torch to the man he has spent several years working alongside.
Another interesting option is MJF. Assuming the current AEW World Champion remains with the promotion come 2024, fans would be more than up for a Title vs. Career match with major emotional implications attached to it.
For the time being, fans will have to wait and see how this story unfolds. Nonetheless, people across the world will no doubt be tuning in to witness the WWE Hall of Famer's last moments in the squared circle.
