WWE's Darren Young announces he is gay
Darren Young who is a wrestler in the WWE who does not get a lot of TV time and is an after sight in the tag team with Titus O'Neil came out of the closet as a TMZ reporter went up to Los Angeles airport and asked him if a gay wrestler could be successful in the WWE and Young decided on the spot that would be a good time to announce that he was a gay wwe wrestler.
So the positives of this story is that it would be a positive role model for young wrestling fans who are still confused with their sexuality or our gay themselves. The WWE has done the only thing they could by getting behind Young with positive tweets from the bosses (Stephanie McMahon and triple H) and the top dog John Cena.
So negatives of the story will be what happens to him around the other wrestlers and they may not take it well and he maybe turned into a odd man out and he may lose some wrestling friends and he may be split from Titus O'Neil which would put his wrestling in jeopardy.
Then there is mystery of the story as there was a gay tag team back in the day called Chuck and Billy and it was a publicity stunt that blow up in their face and this maybe his way to get more attention and more airtime and a bigger star and a bigger spot on the roster and get into a title picture. It will be interesting if they get behind him and "push" him or they "bury" him and he gets his best in future endeavored and he goes indy circuit.
It may be a good day for the wrestling universe or another black eye for the universe depending on the way the WWE writers take his story line but if it was me I would let Young play a baby face wrestler and give him a "push" and give the fans a chance to get behind him if they want to. If they do the WWE should just get behind the fans like they did with CM Punk and Daniel Bryant instead of burying him like a fan favorite in Zach Ryder.
It will be interesting time for Darren Young
