Huge respect. It's hella cool he's the first WWE superstar to come out while still signed to the company. Good for him.

I just hope no one in the back gives him a hard time for it, it's nothing wrong with it at all.

Willing to bet some people backstage already knew, the people he is close to anyway

it's awesome that we have come so far that a WWE wrestler can come out as gay and not be effected, much respect to him and I can only see this leading to more people feeling that they can do the same

Massive respect to him for this, hopefully he doesn't get treated any differently because of this.

Mad respect for him, although I can't help but worry that knowing Vince a sudden gimmick change is coming....

Good for him. I'm glad he can be comfortable. I guess he's not as much like John Cena as we thought. :lol:
Much respect Darren.

Pretty much. This has been huge mainstream news, I'm sure it can only help Young's career if it alters it in any way but hopefully there's no stupid gimmick that showcases this fact. Cool for him though.

respect.

I'm pleased to see that he is comfortable in his own body. It's good to see that most people are accepting him.

Darren Young made global headlines this week when he revealed himself to be the first openly gay WWE Superstar.

According to TMZ.com, Young told WWE that he is “deeply in love” with his boyfriend of 2 years, a man named Nick.

The two currently live together in now in Florida - and Young reportedly told WWE that Nick was actually the driving force in his decision to come out.

Since coming out, Darren Young has received tremendous support from the WWE Universe - and even got support from basketball player Jason Collins, who "came out" earlier this year and became the first openly gay NBA player.

Good for him.

Just mad respect to do this and hope he still has a career with WWE or in the industry. He's not the very best in the ring but he could be great. I am sure more will come out now. It took alot for hi to do this so I am sure he's prepared for the worst and is surprised people are supporting him but that shows we've come a long ways as human beings. Ok, enough of my rant.
