I think i know why there are borg near ds9 they might want to use the wormhole to go back in time to change the events of wolf 359 the wormhole can do more then just send you to the gamma quadrent. There have been times when it can send you to another universe or send you to another timeline

I gave up on the whole Borg thing when 'Enterprise' decided to stick its Oar in and negate pretty much everything that went before it. (Perhaps another paradox?)
Anyhoo... as Janeway said: "Temporal Mechanics give me a headache.".
Hmm.
Not cool man.
If you mean how the Borg Cube was stopped on its way to Earth, that happened after Wolf 359.
Yeah I'm wondering that myself ... If they would want to change anything it's Picard showing up, but then again why use the Wormhole, they didn't need it 30 years earlier ...
The easiest way to alter the past probably would be going back & telling anyone "Hey guys don't assimilate that Picard / Locutus dude" -> Boom -> Earth assimilated ...
Geko did say that they have rights to audio from episodes and he wanted to have us do a time travel mission where we run into Sisko at Wolf 359 (using stock audio of Avery Brooks).
My guess is that the Borg decide to try to prevent the Federation from making an aggressive strike at them by crippling us in the Dominion War. They target Sisko.
We probably team up with Seven of Nine to use the wormhole to go back and fix things. And encounter a vision of the Prophets as Harry Kim and some other characters. Maybe part of the anniversary event would center around the installation of Quark at DS9, who helps us. I think they said another Trek actor was coming soon. Quark seems like the right profile of character.
Unless they DID get Q. But my guess is it will be State of Q, minus Q, but with some other Trek characters assisting us. A DS9 character like Quark would make some sense because he could explain Sisko's importance.
