Steven Borden Says He Was Originally Going To Be Crow Sting, Darby Allin Suggested To ‘Mix It Up’
Steven Borden talks original idea for AEW Revolution entrance.
Sting being joined in the ring with his two sons was one of the many standout moments from his last match at AEW Revolution. Garrett Borden dressed as Surfer Sting while Steven Border donned the Wolfpack Sting attire.
According to Steven, the Wolfpack costume was not the original idea.
“Yeah, so the plan actually until the very end, close to the very end, was for me to just do Crow Sting. So Garrett was going to be Surfer, I was going to be Crow. That was always pretty clear. There was never contention over who was going to do what. It just, everybody kind of knew, ‘yeah, I think it makes most sense for Garrett to do Surfer.’ And that’s probably partially because I used to have long hair so we all got used to that. Then Darby actually made a point to my dad maybe a week or so before the match going, ‘well, you know, don’t you think if Garrett’s going to be Surfer, Steven’s going to be Crow, and then you’re also going to be Crow this is an opportunity to mix it up a little bit?’ And that was a good point, so that’s where we landed on, ‘let’s just try to deliver a few different eras in one.’ And obviously, as you said, we had some logistical constraints with the attire but we landed on the red too, just for the contrast. It made us two stand out from each other a little bit more,” Steven told Haley Miller of ComicBook.
Sting teamed with Darby Allin to defeat The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson & Nicholas Jackson) in his last match.
Garrett and Stevem got in one the action, delivering Stinger splashes and helping set up tables around ringside.
