Medical Update On Steven Borden Following AEW All Out Injury

Positive Medical Update On Steven Borden Following AEW All Out Hospitalization

AEW commentator Tony Schiavone delivered a fresh ringside update regarding the health status of Steven Borden, following the horrifying injury stoppage that halted his pay-per-view debut at AEW All Out 2026 on September 26.

Borden—the son of WWE Hall of Famer Sting—was rushed to a local hospital for emergency evaluation after suffering a severe head impact during a violent collision with Kevin Knight.

Conscious, Responsive, And Undergoing Scans

Speaking directly from the commentary desk later in the broadcast, Schiavone confirmed that Borden is conscious, alert, and communicating with medical staff:

Hospital Evaluation: Borden was transported via ambulance from the Now Arena to a nearby medical center, where physicians immediately ordered comprehensive imaging.
CAT Scan Completed: Medical personnel completed a CAT scan to assess any potential neurological or internal trauma, though official diagnostic results have not yet been publicly released.
Alert And Asking Questions: In an encouraging sign for his recovery, Schiavone noted that Borden was actively asking doctors about the outcome of the match:

“He’s been talking to the doctors about the match. He has had a CAT scan, but the good news is he’s talking and he’s asking about the match.”

The Incident That Stopped The Match

The injury occurred during a high-stakes contender’s match where Borden teamed alongside Darby Allin against Kevin Knight and Kyle Fletcher of the Don Callis Family to determine the next challengers for the AEW World Tag Team Championship.

When Knight launched off the ropes for a springboard attempt, Borden simultaneously jumped off the opposite side, leading to a brutal mid-air collision. Borden crashed back-first onto the canvas, hitting his head hard before going limp. AEW physician Dr. Michael Sampson and referee Bryce Remsburg called off the match immediately, confirming the incident was a legitimate medical emergency rather than a storyline angle.
