| Quote: Roofs "WWE wrestler Darren Young has revealed that he is gay, becoming I think the first ever openly gay wrestler while still with a major organisation. Credit to the guy, clearly has the backing of the company. Saying that you never know what WWE might do with the revelation, a stupidly-over-the-top flamboyant character wouldn't shock me knowing them. Been a couple of days of money-can't-buy-publicity for Young and WWE though.'" That isn't how I read the video at all.
TMZ were hunting, Fred Rosser had a think about it and thought 'What the hell' and just said it you could tell that by the interviewers comments afterward he was taken aback that he had said it.
Also if it was staged it wouldn't have taken WWE hours to release a statement it would have been sat ready to go live on WWE.com immediately after he said it which it didn't

| Just watched a clip on that popular video site and a couple of things don't seem right with this. Firstly off all the questions in the world you could ask a pro wrestler about pro wrestling, what are the odds of a closeted gay wrestler being asked about gay wrestlers? :S Also, search 'Darren young wwe' on said site. During a clip where Cena gets informed of Young's coming out, his girlfriend (whichever Bella he's seeing - I always mix them up, lol) appears to turn away, seemingly to hide laughing.
Anakin, I feel very bad asking / suggesting this, but do you think the entire thing could indeed be a work?!! Like I said I know it's an awful suggestion on paper, but from watching WWF/E for 18 years it seems like there's nothing they won't do for mainstream publicity, and this has reached people who probably haven't watched wrestling in years (I've been stunned to see the likes of The Guardian and Fox jump on board for example). This must be the most mainstream press WWE has had for a decade+. If it's all genuine I commend Young a lot and apologise, but nothing shocks me with wrestling these days.

| Just a shame they put a mild dig at his victory over Cena on last night's Raw.
Cena needs surgery on his arm so will now be out of action for awhile. Why even bring it up unless you're making excuses for why Cena lost.
WWE do not know how to protect anyone but Cena.
Hopefully Bryan vs the McMahons will elevate the guy to the level he should be at and that the creative team don't pull the plug once Cena makes his superhuman come back

Come on Ffs if one of the few who do deserve a bigger push had carried on with that injury you would be on here slagging cena off for not being as injured .
At times you forget what you're having a pop at , its cool to boo etc.
The pro's most don't have a problem with cena , some have an issue with the WWE marketing .

| I think I would have liked to see Orton cash in on Raw rather than Summerslam, it really was a golden moment ruined.
But everything's set up brilliantly now. The McMahons can screw him out of a rematch with Orton for the next few months, whilst he progressively cleans out The Shield & HHH and anyone else Vince can throw in his way.
Have Bryan enter the Rumble at #1 and go on to win the belt at Wrestlemania XXX!
Loving the Ryback character at the moment. Would like to see him go h2h with Punk for a while!

I'm not slating Cena, I'm slating WWEs inability to protect stars. In makes Bryan look weaker because Cena had an injury when beaten. But they both look bad when Bryan is put down for 10'minutes from a pedigree from a retired guy.
Bryan could be the top guy in WWE and they're treating him like he's part of 3mb

| Can someone have a word with the stupid screaming women and point out to them that Orton isn't a good guy anymore?
Or are they so vain and shallow that they can only see how he looks.

An example of this was when AJ was delivering her great promo the Bella twins couldn't keep their traps shut and actually let someone else with talent take the spotlight.
As for the random question I am guessing he knew all to well Young was gay and was on a fishing trip and the 'shock' was because he actually came right out and said it.

Think it was a worked shoot.
Young planned to come out, the questions were loaded and WWE gets publicity.... While Young gets the push he probably wouldn't have got otherwise.

| I'm bored of the Daniel Bryan v Orton/HHH feud already...
Is it going to be the same thing every week??
HHH on the mic telling everyone "it was good for the WWE" while Orton just stands there...
Bryan comes on to the ramp calling HHH a sell out....
HHH puts Bryan in ridiculous match and then he's beaten down buy the Shield..
