16 Rare Photos Of Sting That WWE Don’t Want You To See

Sting AKA Steve Borden's life in pro wrestling.

Sting Dixie Sting has finally made his debut in the WWE, yet this is a man with a long and storied history. It should come as little surprise that there's a whole load of Sting photos that WWE don't want you to see. He's got a past and that won't fit in well with McMahon revisionist history. The other thing about the following candid photos, is that they show Sting without his face paint. WWE want to portray an enigmatic icon, but in reality Sting is just the bible loving Steve Borden. He's an ordinary dude and there's almost no mystique to him in the real world. Now aged 55, Borden isn't going to be appearing on WWE television all that much. He's in for a few appearances and one big match with Triple H at WrestleMania 31. If things go well, there's a chance he'll do more matches, with a dream bout against The Undertaker a remote possibility. The bulk of his legacy is complete. He debuted in 1985 and went on to work in the NWA / WCW from 1987 to 2001. He became the face of that franchise and is widely considered as the Icon Of WCW. Following WCW's sale to the WWF, Sting opted to stay true to his southern routes and join Dixie Carter's TNA brand. He would work there on and off from 2003 until January of 2014. As you can see from the photograph above, he was even inducted into the TNA Hall Of Fame. Here's a range of other Sting photographs that WWE would rather you didn't see.
