Darren Young comes out
This was in the 100,000 replies thread, but honestly it deserves its own thread. Someone came out in an industry that still has homophobic stigma even in 2013. This is big news, and good on Darren for feeling comfortable enough to come out.

I do hope WWE don't turn this into a storyline. But, I've long thought the PTP would work as a face team and I think that might to start going in motion now.

http://www.tmz.com/2013/08/15/darren...superstar-gay/

WWE superstar Darren Young just dropped a bombshell, telling TMZ, he's gay ... and no, this isn't part of the act.

Darren was at LAX Wednesday when we asked whether a gay wrestler could succeed in WWE, and Darren laughed, saying, "Absolutely. Look at me. I'm a WWE superstar and to be honest with you, I'll tell you right now, I'm gay. And I'm happy. I'm very happy."

For the record, Darren is now the first openly gay wrestler ever at WWE ... and the first headlining wrestler ever to come out while still signed to a major promotion.

Other pro wrestlers have been rumored to be gay, but that's it ... just rumors.

Bottom line: this is big, big news. For all its chauvinism and testosterone-driven bravado, coming out in WWE is tantamount to coming out in the NFL.

Of course, wrestling is a little different, particularly because of how physical it is, and how little clothing is involved -- but Darren is completely unfazed. Watch the video to hear why.

Well Pat Patterson is open if you want to count him. Obviously he's not on that active roster, but if I recall he was openly gay during his career.

Regardless, thats dope of him. I imagine it takes a lot of courage to do something like that, especially in that type of business. Good on him, I support him, and it by no means affects my feelings on his hilarious shenanigans with PTP.

Pat Patterson is openly gay, but when he was an active member of the roster, I don't think it was known to the fans. But either way, big respect to Darren Young. It can't be easy to come out in this business where homosexuals are somehow seen as less manly than heterosexuals. Being black is enough to stereotype you in professional wrestling (Crime Tyme, Shelton's mama). Being gay is just a double whammy. Let's just hope HHH doesn't make some bad joke at his expense, like when he compared Lillian Garcia to a horse.

Well there you have it, they were looking for a black American to push, now they can one up it, a black Gay American.

Zeb should cut an amazing promo using this as his material.

I don't understand how a guy can be gay, who in their right mind doesn't like titties? Anyway, good for him.

Yeah, that would be like the Christopher Street Connection from Jersey All Pro Wrestling. As a current near-jobber, Young really has nothing to lose by coming out. I'm sure WWE will assign him more BE A STAR promotional work, if not more ring victories.

Good for him that he was comfortable enough to make the announcement.

Hasn't Orlando Jordan been openly gay for quite some time? Fairly certain he got into trouble for bringing like 17 year old boys on the road with him or something.

Wow, I'm pretty surprised. I really hope he doesn't get stuck with a terrible gay storyline/gimmick.

Heh, WWE's already released a statement.

Apparently, they're going to be using him in the Be A Star campaign. Makes sense.

That was the first thing I thought of when I heard the news.

It would be good if it happens.

Good for him, I don't really care either way and I hope that it doesn't hinder his career but I'll forget all about this in a day or two.

When Orlando Jordan was openly gay/bi everyone just seemed to see it as kind of gross and it seemed to be part of the reason for him leaving. Now that gay is more newsworthy and relevant, all of a sudden it's a celebration.

Step in the right direction but a little transparent IMO.

Darren Young has never weirded anyone out, and something tells me he never will. Orlando Jordan makes people uncomfortable. This was a wrestling segment, not a scene from something on the Out! channel.

Well, his TNA persona was way over the top. I was talking about his WWE run and I don't think he did anything close to that then.

I just hope they don't shove him in our face.

What I would do is have Titus turn on him, and be an anti-gay heel. He would be over in less than a month.
