WWE NXT wrestler Myles Borne discusses hearing impairment

WWE NXT wrestler Myles Borne has shared how his hearing impairment has influenced his athletic development and his interactions with fans. Borne noted that his hearing loss helped him become a highly visual and hands-on learner during his amateur wrestling career, allowing him to master techniques by observing coaches rather than relying on verbal instructions.

Borne also addressed recent instances where fans utilized “What?” chants during his segments. He revealed that he was unaware of the chants while they were occurring, only discovering them later by reviewing footage with closed captioning. Rather than taking offense, Borne expressed that he found the situation humorous, noting that the crowd was attempting to elicit a reaction he could not hear.
