DY wins the intercontinental title only to lose it the following week.... Vince: "Well....now that that's out of the way, DANCE EVA!!"

So how is this going to work, exactly? Nobody on the roster has LGBT as an explicit character trait other than Darren Young, and even then, it's not right at the forefront of his character. He just is because the man in real life is. Anything added to an existing character might feel forced and tokenistic.

Honestly if this leads to a heart warming coming out with old school hard ass Bob Backlund being supportive, it could be worth it.

Im sure they will handle these sensitive topics with typical class. Or maybe not.

He just is because the man in real life is. Anything added to an existing character might feel forced and tokenistic. It's a tough subject to breach in the first place since guys and girls rarely talk to each other on WWE TV unless they're married to each other, yet somehow someone's sexuality is going to come up on TV. I think you might as well do it with Darren Young, it might seem shoehorned but if you're gonna do it he might as well be the guy. I always found it weird how Lana/Rusev got engaged and WWE couldn't seem to avoid killing the ongoing angle over it, yet when Darren Young came out and made headlines they seemed to have an easy time ignoring it.

How exactly do they not botch this? Are they going to start emphasizing if characters are LGBT or not? It's the equivalent of saying, "here comes Apollo Crews, one of our black superstars."

They can't even get straight wrestlers on track. How the f*** are they going to get LGBT ones right?

Really, the only two LGBT wrestlers --- at least of those who are considered out of the closet --- they have are Darren Young and Daria Bereneto down in NXT. Aside from them... unless they have people fake being homosexual there's not really much to work with here. Unless they want to bring Pat Patterson back as an on-screen character, which I doubt he'd be interested in doing.

Oh under the WWE this should be handled with all care and tenderness of a glass chandelier in a bouncy castle.
