Adam Copeland has recently been seen with FTR and Darby Allin helping to train Sting’s son Steven Borden.
All Elite Wrestling‘s Adam Copeland recently sat down with Steven Muehlhausen of Sports Illustrated. When asked about the recent photo posted by Dax Harwood of them with Steven, Copeland said he believes Sting’s son got the itch earlier this year at Revolution.
“I think at Revolution there in Greensboro, he got a bit of the itch,” Adam Copeland said. “He felt what it is. And once you feel that, man, it’s hard to walk away from that. It’s hard to go, ‘Wait that wasn’t cool’. You’re going to go, ‘That was really cool and really fun.’
“It’s a great gig. So I think he felt that also in terms of his physicality. I mean, he’s 6-3. He’s about 230 pounds. He’s probably sitting about eight percent body fat. He looks the part. He’s got a good head on his shoulders, very similar to his dad in how he conducts himself, which is a great thing.”
There will be a big spotlight on Steven Borden if he decides to follow in his father’s footsteps
Copeland went on to say he believes that the ball is in Steven Borden’s court now and if he wants to follow in his father’s footsteps he thinks he can be successful.
“I think now it’s really up to him,” Adam Copeland said. “What does he want to put into it? Does he want to put in the work that it will take? Because you got to figure it. You might look at it and say, ‘Ok, an easier pathway into the business.’
“But once he’s in the business, there’s going to be a big spotlight on him, and with that comes extra pressures. Your Sting’s son and trying to break out of that. But, he’s smart. He’s smart, and I think if he wants to do it, he absolutely could do it.”
