“The Icon” Sting might need permanently hung up his boots, outside of a couple of select appearances in AEW, however the legacy of his pro wrestling profession is being continued through each of his sons. Initially, his younger son, Steve Borden Jr. stepped into the industry, and has been trained by Darby Allin, but now his eldest, Garrett Borden, can be joining the family business.
On May 18, JJA Sport Studio posted a clip of Garrett’s in ring debut at Rhodes Wrestling Academy, and in response to Jim Ross, Garrett also has a shiny future within the industry. “I hear good things about his training. I hear that he’s aggressive, and his thorough, and he’s reliable – reliable, reliable – and so, I’m gonna see how they do after they’re type of off-Broadway with Dustin [Rhodes’] company,” Ross proclaimed during an episode of his “Grilling JR” podcast, adding that he is not surprised in any respect to listen to that Garrett can be following in his father’s legacy.
“I’m anxious to see him work,” Ross added. “You’ll be able to tell so much a couple of guy’s attitude by how they train; are they on time? Do they keep their commitments?” The veteran further noted that he’s met Garrett repeatedly throughout his life, and praised his temperament. “He’s the type of kid that you understand good things will occur for him. He’s got a ‘star look,’ and so, he’s got a famous dad, which don’t hurt a thing!”
