AEW’s Homecoming sure is slated to be a solid build toward March’s Revolution PPV. But they aren’t just focused on the future; they decided to remind fans of the legend that we lost in the late Brodie Lee. After the match between Hangman Adam Page and Claudio Castagnoli concluded, AEW played a montage of the debut and accomplishments of the former Wyatt Family member.

Unfortunately, the world lost such high-caliber talent on December 26th, 2020, but his legacy lives through his memories and the knowledge he imparted to his proteges, with one of them, Anna Jey, who wasn’t just part of tonight’s roster but also helped her team win the match against Julia Hart, Saraya, Ruby Soho, and Skye Blue. Well, this wasn’t the only moment that would’ve made fans emotional, as AEW fans prepare themselves to say goodbye to a soon-to-be retiring Sting.

The only thing for sure about Sting, about my retirement for 2024 is… for sure.”
