HRT Reks, hell yeah. I'm glad for her.
I will say that I don't think this is being done maliciously by the article, but it is rubbing me the wrong way that they spend half of the misgendering Gabbi in order to do the reveal. Again, I want to stress I don't think that is their intention, but it's kind of off-putting.

Yeah, it was reading more like a promo piece for a TV story (because it kind of IS a promo piece for a TV story), but it was the most detailed thing that had come up of what was specifically happening.

Good for her. I'm happy that she's comfortable in her own skin.

The cynic in thinks that she'll use this as an opportunity to enter the Women's Rumble next year.
That's because I'm wrongly heavily stereotyping a pro-wrestler will always carny and use whatever deal they have to make a buck.
Outside of my kayfabe rant, I'm happy for her.

Wow, talk about unexpected news of the day! I'm very happy for her. I'm also equally proud of her wife for supporting her during this transition. Wishing them all the best.

Remember when Gabbi told everybody to go to stores without masks on and record videos to stand up for your rights? I don't care about her gender, she's still an idiot.

Welcome to the clubhouse, punch and cookies are over there

This is pretty much exactly what I came here to say. Actually let me rephrase that a bit. Good for Gabbi that she's finally comfortable with who she is. Having said that, she still seems like an idiot unless proven otherwise.

Good for her.
We're seeing a lot more acceptance of trans people in wrestling (just in this last month or so, Still Life With Apricots & Pears and Jamie Senegal both started using she/her pronouns for example) and as someone with a trans wife who loves wrestling as much as I do it gives me hope for the future

Good to hear that she's reached a state of being more positive with herself, wish the article did a better job of approaching it.
That mask thing makes her sound like an idiot, but that's really a whole separate matter anyway.

I'm glad she has a televised victory over Low-Ki.

Cool.
She is still a POS. But cool for her, hopefully at least inspires more people.

Again, I want to stress I don't think that is their intention, but it's kind of off-putting. I completely agree with you. However when they write it that way I think it makes it easier for old people and those who arent part of the LGBTQ community to understand. Of course, they shouldn't have to simplify/dumb things down like that, but that's the world we currently live in. Someday (hopefully soon) people will be more understanding of proper pronouns and stuff like that.

Everyone deserves the peace of happiness, so good for her.
As for Tyler Reks the wrestler I’m struggling to think of anything he did. All I remember is beating Low Ki to take his SurSer spot and freaking out on an airplane. Did I miss anything?
