Steve Borden

Actor · Born March 20, 1959 (67) · Omaha, Nebraska, USA

Steven Borden, better known by his ring name Sting, is a retired American professional wrestler and former bodybuilder whose career spanned five decades, during which he won a combined fifteen world championships and became one of the most enduring and influential figures in professional wrestling history. Borden rose to prominence in the late 1980s and became the defining star of World Championship Wrestling (WCW) during its peak years, serving as the promotion’s heroic centerpiece and cultural identity. Nicknamed “The Franchise of WCW,” he spent 14 years with WCW and its predecessor, Jim Crockett Promotions, captured multiple world titles, including six WCW World Heavyweight Championships, headlined more pay-per-view events than any wrestler in company history, and wrestled in the main event of the final episode of Nitro in 2001. His rivalry with Hulk Hogan culminated at Starrcade 1997, the highest-grossing event in WCW history. Following WCW’s closure, Borden chose not to immediately join the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), later renamed World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in 2002, despite the company having purchased WCW in 2001, and instead continued his career internationally before becoming a cornerstone of Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). Over more than a decade in TNA, he helped establish the promotion’s credibility on a national stage, won multiple world championships, and became the only wrestler to hold the NWA, WCW, and TNA World Heavyweight Championships. In recognition of his impact, he was named the inaugural inductee into the TNA Hall of Fame in 2012. Late in his career, Borden enjoyed a critically acclaimed final run in All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he transitioned into a special-attraction and mentor role while teaming with Darby Allin and delivering high-profile performances well into his 60s. He officially retired from in-ring competition in 2024, closing the book on a career defined by longevity, adaptability, star power, and a rare ability to remain relevant across multiple eras of professional wrestling.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
