The Undertaker and Sting both enjoyed long, highly regarded careers as prominent figures in their respective wrestling promotions, but Matt Hardy recently shared his thoughts on which of the two had the more impressive career. Both WWE Hall of Famers have legacies spanning over three decades, filled with iconic moments that have left a lasting mark on professional wrestling. On his podcast, “The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy,” he expressed his respect for both legends before weighing in on their career comparisons.
Hardy noted that The Undertaker’s career was unique because he remained with WWE his entire time, consistently maintaining a top spot and creating legendary streaks. On the other hand, Sting was a major player in NWA and WCW, revitalized the latter during the Monday Night Wars with his Crow persona, and had a significant run in TNA, helping that promotion gain popularity. He briefly appeared in WWE before joining AEW, where Hardy believes Sting has become the best story the company has produced.
While Hardy admires Sting greatly and views him as a fantastic person, he still feels The Undertaker’s career edges out Sting’s, mainly due to Taker’s sustained top-tier presence within WWE, arguably the premier wrestling promotion. The two athletes have been locker room colleagues in TNA and AEW, with their final in-ring match set for 2022 when Hardy teams with Darby Allin and Sting on AEW Dynamite.
Fan Take: This discussion highlights the lasting impact both Undertaker and Sting have on wrestling history and offers fans a deeper appreciation of their contributions across multiple promotions. For WWE enthusiasts, it underscores the importance of career longevity and consistent top-level performances, which continue to shape the sport’s legacy.
