BREAKING: Steven Borden, the son of WWE Hall of Famer Sting, is gearing up for his highly anticipated wrestling debut this October. Following nearly two years of training, Borden will showcase his skills at the 52W Hardway: Live Wrestling Nights event, hosted in New York City.

The debut matches are scheduled for October 3 and October 10, as part of a unique event that blends art, music, and professional wrestling. This innovative showcase is organized by Raymond Pettibon and Charlie Ramone, friends of fellow wrestler Darby Allin, who is also involved in the production of the matches. Although the specific match cards remain undisclosed, the excitement is palpable.

UPDATE: Borden, who previously assisted Sting during his final match at AEW Revolution, expressed his eagerness to step into the ring. He has been training intensively with Allin, Sting’s former tag team partner. His previous appearance at AEW Revolution, where he donned a Wolfpac Sting outfit and executed a Stinger’s Splash, left fans buzzing with anticipation.

In a heartfelt reflection, Borden shared his journey, stating, “I think it was probably a question that I’ve been asked more than anything in my entire life, ‘When are you going to get into wrestling?’” He emphasized his desire to earn his place in the sport without relying on his father’s legacy. “I always liked leaving it as my dad’s thing,” he noted, revealing that his perspective has evolved over the last year.

The emotional weight of following in his father’s footsteps is clear. Borden acknowledged the bittersweet nature of wrestling as Sting approaches retirement, admitting, “I’m not ready to let him walk away.” This sentiment resonates with fans who have cherished Sting’s iconic career.

As the wrestling world eagerly anticipates this debut, Steven Borden is poised to carve out his own identity in the ring. This event not only marks a significant milestone in his life but also highlights the blending of family legacy with personal ambition.

Stay tuned for further updates as details about the matches become available. Fans worldwide are ready to cheer on Borden as he takes this monumental step in his wrestling career.
