Sting announced his retirement from wrestling during his induction speech at the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony.
The six-time WCW Heavyweight Champion wrestled just the two matches in WWE, battling Triple H at WrestleMania 31 before fighting Seth Rollins at Night of Champions last September.
Sting picked up a neck injury in his match with Rollins and has decided to end a career which included three reigns with the WCW Tag Team Championship.
Speaking at the Hall of Fame ceremony, the Icon said: 'This does not mean goodbye, it means see you later.'
Sting was joined in the Hall of Fame Class of 2016 by The Godfather, The Fabulous Freebirds, Stan Hansen, Jacqueline Moore, Big Boss Man and rap superstar Snoop Dogg.
