Steve Borden took a major step in his young career on Wednesday night.
And he did it under the AEW banner.
The son of the legendary Sting made his official in-ring debut for AEW at tonight’s Dynamite show, working a non-televised dark match before the live broadcast and scoring a clean win over Kiran Grey.
Borden picked up the victory with a flying bodypress, a simple but symbolic moment given the expectations that naturally follow the next generation of a WWE and TNA Wrestling Hall of Famer.
This wasn’t Borden’s first exposure to AEW audiences, but it was his first true match for the company. He previously appeared as a past version of his father Sting, along with his brother, for a memorable outing “The Icon” had during his tenure in All Elite Wrestling.
He’s been training heavily with Darby Allin in recent months and has popped up for a handful of independent dates to sharpen his timing.
AEW clearly wanted this debut to happen on their turf.
Also working a dark match prior to the taping was Ortiz, who took on Hook in one-on-one non-televised action. Prior to the match, Ortiz’s last appearance in AEW came way back in January of 2024.
A third dark match saw Brady Booker and Elijah Drago, with Billy Gunn, defeat two local wrestlers in a tag-team tilt.
