Tony Schiavone, AEW commentator, explained his decision to recreate his iconic "It's Sting" call for Steven Borden, Sting's son, during a recent podcast appearance. Schiavone hesitated initially, concerned about disrespecting Sting, but felt it appropriate due to Borden's potential in wrestling. Borden recently made his AEW debut and participated in a pay-per-view match at All Out, during which he sustained a knockout but has since been reported as conscious and cleared of serious injuries. Schiavone's spontaneous decision may lead to future uses of the call for Borden.
