Steven Borden, Son of WWE Hall of Famer Sting, Plans Wrestling Debut at NYC Art Event

Steven Borden, son of WWE Hall of Famer and AEW legend Sting, is set to make his professional wrestling debut in October as part of the "52W Hardway" art exhibit in New York City. This unique event combines live wrestling and music with contemporary art, featuring shows on October 3 and 10, and is presented in collaboration with artist Raymond Pettibon, AEW star Darby Allin, and backstage producer Charlie Ramone. Borden, a former NFL prospect, has been training extensively with Darby Allin, Adam Copeland, and the tag team FTR to prepare for his transition into wrestling. His debut follows Sting's emotional retirement match at AEW Revolution in 2025, where Borden appeared in tribute gear honoring his father's legacy. The event will also showcase other wrestling talents such as Killer Kross, AR Fox, Timothy Thatcher, Sid Ellington, and Kiran Grey, with Allin curating the undercard bouts. This marks a significant step for Borden as he embarks on his own wrestling career while honoring his family's storied legacy in the sport.
