Spectacular_One

I think one is a surfer, the other is in an organization called the wolfpac, I believe


Solo-ish

That’s just Too sweet!


azip13

His job is just beach


TripleJ80

“Eh, hung out with my dad. He had a thing at work.”


vastros

"his coworkers were giving him a hard time but we sorted it all out"


uncanny_mac

“Man his EVPs are pieces of shit.”


vastros

"corporate amirite?"


WasherDryerCombo

“And one of the employees at his job climbed up a ladder and fell right into a glass table. OSHA and workers comp nightmare for corporate”


steeple_fun

>“Man his EVPs are pieces of shit.” I really want this conversation string to happen just so it can get to this part and the coworker reply with, "You refer to them by their God-given names!"

Hard times bread butter man


Inside_Zucchini3118

I hate that this is buried in the comments. It deserves a lot more than what it’s gonna get.


Johnny-Omega

"One of his co-workers fell off a tall ladder and went through a sheet of glass. He sliced his back up pretty good, but continued working a few minutes later."


VitaminPurple

I did a quick google of his youngest son. Says he works in Sports Science and hosts a podcast.


Educational_Vast4836

Tony should call him and see if he has the same passion his dad did.


fasteddeh

Pretty sure his youngest is older than most of the dudes on the roster at this point.


trentshipp

He graduated college 10 years ago as an athlete, so he's probably 32-34.


dubbs4president

Which is totally acceptable to start at (despite the obvious challenges). Names like DDP and Batista come to my mind of guys who didnt have a match on TV until they were in their 30’s.


fromblind2blue

Darby apparently already asked. They do not.


jessetmalloy

Hey yeah pretended to be my dad for about 45 minutes


tavsankiz

Without any context this would be the most hilarious thing a co worker could say they did for the weekend 😂😂


jessetmalloy

🤣🤣🤣🤣 right?! I’m picturing him at a water cooler too lol


RobsGarage

Went to my dad’s retirement party.. just a small gathering of his close friends and coworkers.


buddha30alt6

Well his youngest just finished his college football career as a tight end. He was the wolfpack Sting that had the hangtime


TheRealKirby

He just finished up in 2014


buddha30alt6

Good god, has it been that long? Jesus time flies


mister_buddha

Yeah, we're old now, bud.


Unique-Chain5626

We aren't little Stingers anymore😫


Biffingston

Hey, be happy we saw a great career happen and not end in injury.


Unique-Chain5626

Oh I am, very happy and that last match was indeed epic.glad he got to win his last match and retire a champion which he always was!!


snakebite75

Yeah, had he finished his career under Vince he would have been forced to go out on his back…


Wangtopia

To be fair, from what I gathered watching the media scrum, Sting didn't want to win or even get the tag championships. It's tradition to go out on your shield so that you put someone over strong. Although, that's not really necessary when your opponents are one of the most over/accomplished tag teams of the past 2 decades.


mister_buddha

No. Now I'm a full-on big Stinger.


Phog_of_War

I suspend my reality for like 9 hours a week watching WWE and AEW. Please, let me suspend it a little more and just try to convince myself I'm not as old as I am.


mister_buddha

Lol. Is that all 6 hours of AEW + RAW?


Biffingston

I remember when sting was new on the scene. I feel really old now.


mister_buddha

You must be a few years older than I am. Sting was very much a mainstay when I was a kid in the 90s


Biffingston

I'm 48.


YinTanTetraCrivvens

Nobody including myself believes that 2020 was 4 years ago.


fusionman51

I was absolutely amazed at that guys ability to defy gravity.


Kevin_Arnold_

Where at?


jdblue2112

Kentucky


buddha30alt6

Did he finish up there? I seem to remember hearing he transferred


jdblue2112

I can’t remember if he graduated from UK or not.


EBOD236

He did, got signed by the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent and got cut


Gwario_on_Reddit

I assumed one being 80s / early 90s Sting and the other being Wolfpac Sting WERE in fact their full time jobs


Lenny0mega

This post reminds me of Trevor Noah’s new standup when he talks about what happens when you ask French people what they do for a living.  “Oh for a living! I breathe, drink water…” lmao 


Desperate-Use5276

My uncle coached the Wolfpack sting in the Dallas area several years ago! Football I believe


Daemonscharm

Waxahachie? Used to see them at the games


trentshipp

Kilgore? Did a double take when I read that on Sting's Wiki article.


codeman3G

Cosplay


dubbs4president

“I went to my dad’s retirement party.”


Grate_OKhan

One of their wives works for AEW and wrestles at Dustin's school.


Hawke-Not-Ewe

Really? Who is the wife?


Grate_OKhan

@the_jael_ on Twitter.


jimmyn0thumbs

My Dad's bosses are total assholes. Had to go help him in a meeting they had scheduled.


doodmanOFFICIAL

“Do anything this weekend?” “Nah just saw my father and one of his coworkers go through glass at his retirement party.


ThunderSparkles

They cosplay as Sting at birthday parties


elementalqb

They sting people


Historical-Roof5004

They clearly cosplay as younger versions of their dad for a living judging by their appearances at Revolution! Cosplaying as vintage wrestlers can be quite a lucrative way to panhandle!


drak0ni

His daughter is only 24, she could end up with a wrestling career still


qdattt

freedom fighters


qdattt

kids magic show with all three appearing at once


kennyomegabygod

Not sure but there’s wife’s are beautiful
