As you might have heard, Sting recently revealed that he needs neck surgery. This comes after his match with Seth Rollins at Night of Champions a few months ago. Some fans thought that it was Seth Rollins fault for injuring him. Here Sting is talking about the injury and not blaming Seth:
"Yes and no. Obviously that night I had some problems. Both buckle bombs — not Seth's fault, completely mine, I have no idea what I did, I have no idea — but my neck whiplashed on both of them. On the second one, he picked me up and I'm having a casual conversation in my own mind as I'm hoisted up on his shoulders thinking 'okay, Steve, tuck your chin. Do what you know how to do. This is ridiculous.' I wasn't worried at all, even though the first one I had a shock going down the left and right thigh down both down to the fingertips. And I thought 'oh man' you can see me in the ring trying to shake my hands out and get feeling back in my hands. And then the second time, again, having the casual conversation, and then for whatever reason I clicked out, checked out, I don't know what happened but I did the same thing. This time, it affected my legs. Yeah, there was just no strength. The power in my legs was just kinda going away and I felt like I didn't have control over them, and I didn't. I had a temporary paralysis. For a few minutes I thought 'I don't think I can continue, I think I'm done. But I can't do this, the stakes are so high, and I can't do this to Seth.' Anyway, then the crowd starts chanting and everything else. Somehow or another it just kinda came back enough where 'okay, I can do another minute or two here and get out of this thing.'"

Pretty scary stuff that he felt temporarily paralysis.. Sounds like he doesn't blame Seth at all for the injury and is blaming himself for not tucking his chin on the buckle bombs. Still a fairly dangerous move. especially at Sting's age..
