Who was the fake Sting in AEW?

In the world of All Elite Wrestling (AEW), the iconic wrestler Sting remains just that: Sting.

There’s no room for imposters or fake storylines featuring the wrestling legend. Throughout his time in AEW, Sting, whose real name is Steve Borden, has consistently been portrayed by the real deal himself.

However, some wrestling fans might recall a similar storyline from the past, back in the 1990s during the days of World Championship Wrestling (WCW).

It was a time when Jeff Farmer stepped into the ring as a character dubbed “nWo Sting.” This imposter Sting aligned himself with the villainous nWo stable, sparking confusion and tension among fans and wrestlers alike.

However, what went down in WCW stays in WCW. AEW operates on its own turf with its own unique storylines and roster of wrestlers. There’s no mixing of worlds here.

So, while the history books may have a chapter on the “fake Sting” saga from WCW, AEW stands firm in its commitment to authenticity, ensuring that when you see Sting in the ring, you’re seeing the real deal, no impersonations allowed.
