Man, you gotta see what went down Saturday night at All Out. Steven Borden, Sting’s son, suffered a legitimate injury during that No. 1 Contender tag team match. He and Darby Allin were going up against Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight, and things got real scary, real fast.
Collision Chaos Halts the Match
Picture this: Borden and Knight both launching themselves from those two turnbuckles nearest the ramp. Full speed, head-on collision. The moment they connected, Borden looked like he was completely lights out. You could feel it through the screen, that impact was brutal. The referee was on him immediately, checking things out. Then, an AEW official slid into the ring, and you just knew it was bad. They stopped the match right there. You hate to see that kind of legitimate injury, especially with a guy who’s been on such a roll. It just absolutely stops the momentum of the entire night when something like that happens.
A Rapid Rise Now on Pause?
This kid has been on a seriously quick rise through the professional wrestling ranks. It feels like he just burst onto the scene. He only started training under Darby Allin back in May 2024, which wasn’t that long ago, right? And by December 2025, he was already doing dark matches for AEW and Ring of Honor. Then, bam, he made his official wrestling debut on television in August. He was just starting to really make his mark and prove himself. This kind of setback, especially a legitimate injury like being knocked out, could be a real gut punch to that upward trajectory he was riding.
So now, everyone’s wondering what this means for Borden and his future. He’s got so much potential, and he was just getting started making a name for himself. We’re all just hoping for the best and waiting for an update on his condition. Can’t wait to see him back in the ring when he’s healthy and ready to pick up where he left off. That’s a story we’ll definitely be keeping an eye on.
