• Sting’s Son Making In-Ring Debut Soon

WWE Hall of Famer Sting’s son Steven Borden Jr. will step inside the ring for his first professional wrestling match in a couple of days. He had been training with multiple names from AEW, including Darby Allin, Adam Copeland and FTR.

Steven will wrestle his first official match at a two-night event inside New York’s 52 Walker gallery space. The event is scheduled for October 3 and October 10.

The event will also feature Darby Allin and former WWE stars Karrion Kross and Timothy Thatcher.

Steven, who previously played football at the University Of Kentucky, was part of his father’s retirement match at AEW Revolution 2024. Alongside his brother Garrett, he paid tribute by dressing up as one of The Icon’s classic personas before hitting a Stinger Splash on The Young Bucks.

• WWE Wasn’t Impressed With Wrestler Who Recently Quit The Company

Former WWE NXT wrestler Edris Enofe announced his departure from the company on Monday. He shared the news in a video posted on X, where he reflected on his time with the promotion.

The 31-year-old said that he had been considering the decision for a long time and ultimately decided to trust his instincts. He reflected on his four years in WWE, saying he was grateful for the chance to work with so many people who pushed him to improve. He also made sure to thank the fans who supported him throughout his journey.

According to the Wrestling Observer, WWE officials weren’t impressed with Enofe despite his excellent physique. The company did not have any plans for him, which was evident from the fact that he was no longer being used on TV.

Enofe signed with WWE in 2021 and was best known for teaming with Malik Blade in NXT. He underwent shoulder surgery last year before returning to the ring earlier in 2025, making several appearances on WWE EVOLVE.

• Legacy Reunion Set For SmackDown

On the SmackDown after Wrestlepalooza, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes had a segment with WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman, which ended with Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed attacking him. Randy Orton came out to make the save for Rhodes.

The American Nightmare had a face-off with World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins on RAW last night. Things are heating up between the two men ahead of their clash at Crown Jewel.

SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis has now announced that Rhodes will team up with Orton to take on Breakker and Reed in a Tag Team Match on this Friday’s episode of SmackDown. Here’s what he said:

“Well, folks, seems to me that Bronson Reed and Bron Breaker seem to enjoy getting involved in other people’s business as of late. And having just wrapped up a phone call with my esteemed colleague, Adam Pierce, over at Monday Night RAW, we agreed that they can get involved in my business this Friday night on SmackDown.

More specifically, they can get involved in Cody Rhodes’ business and Randy Orton’s business because Bron Breaker and Bronson Reed, you, will be taking on the team of Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton this Friday night live in Cincinnati, Ohio for SmackDown. See you Friday, boys. Lace them up tight.”

The Legacy vs. The Vision is set for the main event of SmackDown!

• WWE Wrestler Could Be Out Of Action For Up To A Year

Prior to his injury, WWE NXT Superstar Ridge Holland had been working in TNA as part of the crossover deal between NXT and TNA. He had a deal with Trick Williams, who gave him a chance to earn a TNA World Championship Match by taking Mike Santana out of contention. But, Holland lost to Santana at Victory Road.

During last Saturday’s TNA taping in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, Holland faced Moose. However, the match had to be stopped midway after he got hurt due to a bad landing. He was unable to put weight on the injured leg and had to be helped backstage. Moose and an official were seen assisting him to the back.

The 37-year-old took to X today to reveal that he suffered a Lisfranc injury and is set to undergo surgery later this week.

“Lisfranc Injury…Surgery Friday.

See ya in abit”

The injury could keep the former NXT Tag Team Champion out of action for several months, or even up to a year. The recovery time is usually longer in surgical cases.

Moose vs. Ridge Holland was taped for the October 12 episode of TNA iMPACT!

• “She didn’t learn a lot in AEW” – WWE Personality Slams Jade Cargill’s Wrestling Skills After SmackDown Botch

Last week’s episode of SmackDown featured Tiffany Stratton vs. Jade Cargill vs. Nia Jax in a Triple-Threat Match for the WWE Women’s Championship in the main event.

The match did not go down as planned as it featured a few botches. At one point, Nia Jax drove Jade Cargill into the steel steps, which left the former AEW star bloody. Later in the bout, the referee stopped her count, despite The Irresistible Force not kicking out when Stratton pinned her.

During his Hall of Fame podcast, NXT commentator Booker T said there was a lot of miscommunication during the match, which is not acceptable.

“That can’t happen on live television. It wasn’t a good night at all. You could tell there was a lot of miscommunication. You’ve got an NIL talent, Tiffany Stratton.

You’ve got Jade Cargill who’s pretty much fresh off her AEW run, and just think about that time in AEW for her, she probably didn’t learn a whole lot, because – no disrespect or anything – but she was just put on a wing and she never really got a chance to really wrestle anybody.

And then you’ve got Nia Jax, who’s been there, of course is gonna feel like, ‘I need to quarterback this thing, I feel like I know more than these girls.’

It could have been a plethora of things, but you could tell there was a lot of miscommunication. One thing about matches like that – the only thing they’re gonna remember is the finish. You’ve gotta get everybody to that point to where that finish can happen and it goes off without a hitch. And that didn’t happen, that didn’t happen in this match.

Was it a botch? Heck yeah it was a botch. Was it a miscommunication? Was it a screw up? Whatever term you wanna put on it – yes it was. But one thing I do feel about that kind of stuff – that can’t happen on live television. 

If I went to go and see Hamilton, and they were going home, and the guy slipped on his butt and he forgot his lines, I think I would be pretty upset about that too.

They went out there and it wasn’t a good night. It wasn’t a good night at all.”

Nia Jax has been highly criticized for the match by fans online, but Jade Cargill’s recent activity on X indicates that the botched pinfall may be Tiffany Stratton’s mistake (which we covered in our previous article).
