• Former WWE Tag Team Champion Is Training Sting’s Son
A legacy in the making is currently being shaped behind closed doors. Fred Rosser (former WWE Tag Team Champion Darren Young) has revealed that he is personally spearheading the development of Steven Borden, the son of WCW Legend Sting.
Rosser has taken Borden on as a high-stakes personal project, serving as his private coach to help him navigate the transition into the ring. While much of the work happens away from the cameras, the goal is to mold Borden into a complete performer worthy of his family’s massive shadow.
To sharpen his skills, Borden has already begun the transition from training to live performance. He is currently working dark matches before AEW shows to get used to the energy of a live audience.
Here’s what Rosser said on Paltrocast:
“The coaching is pretty full-time. I’m working with Sting’s son Steven Borden, helping to groom him privately and helping him become all that he’s created to be inside of the ring. He’s working hard, doing some dark matches, getting some reps in front of a crowd. That means a lot to me. That’s a personal project that I’m trying to conquer.”

• Change Coming To RAW Star’s Character
A significant attitude adjustment is reportedly in the works for Lyra Valkyria as WWE creative looks to shake up the RAW women’s division.
According to Bodyslam, internal discussions have surfaced regarding a potential character shift that would see the former Women’s Intercontinental Champion adopt a far more aggressive edge.
The catalyst for this change is a shared sense of frustration; both Valkyria and her tag team partner, Bayley, are tired of being overlooked in the Women’s Tag Team Title picture and are ready to stop playing by the rules to get what they want.
With the Road to WrestleMania 42 heating up, this new, meaner streak is expected to elevate Valkyria into a more ruthless competitor, potentially positioning her and Bayley as a formidable threat to any team standing in their way of the gold.
