David Bostian III (born May 25, 1999) is an American professional wrestler signed to WWE, where he performs under the ring name Myles Borne on the NXT brand.
Bostian was born in Wilmington, North Carolina with Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn. It is a treatable condition but one of the major side effects of the treatment is loss of hearing, resulting in Bostian being deaf. Bostian received hearing aids and would use an FM system while he was in school, allowing him to focus clearly on one person and read lips. He started wrestling while he was in kindergarten and through high school. He attended Emsley A. Laney High School in Wilmington, North Carolina, where as a wrestler, he was allowed by the North Carolina High School Athletic Association to wear his FM transistor inside his headgear, in order to be able to hear his coaches during matches.
