Steven Borden debuts with Darby Allin on AEW Dynamite

"

Sting’s son Steven Borden started his wrestling career less than one year ago, and now finds himself featured on AEW Dynamite, the show Tony Khan says is Where The Best Wrestle. After helping Darby Allin win the TNT championship at All In, and then taking a beating from the returning Josh Alexander last week, Borden competed in his official Dynamite debut match on tonight’s (Sept. 9) Rebel Heart episode. He teamed up with Darby to take on Alexander and his fellow Callis Family thug, “Dunkzilla” Mark Davis. Before the match, Borden cut a solid promo backstage about why he got into wrestling, and trying to escape his dad’s massive shadow. Sting Jr. is green in the ring, which is to be expected given his lack of experience. But hey, he jumps very high. You could clearly see both factors in play when he got a hot tag late in the match and ran wild on the heels. .@StevenBorden takes out the Don Callis Family!

He did a run in (with Darby) after the main event to chase away FTR and save the Young Bucks. He eventually shook hands with the Bucks, who once tried to send his iconic dad into retirement as a big loser, if you recall. A whole lot of history … but a handshake among the @YoungBucks, @DarbyAllin and @StevenBorden!
