I thought it would be a hilarious picture or something... Kind of disappointed. Prime Time Players will now become Billy & Chuck. Gives a whole new meaning to "wash rag". But seriously. It's always cool when someone is comfortable enough to be who they are without caring what people think.

I really hope, for Darren's sake, that Titus isn't gay.
Just imagine the pain!

Good for him. I'm honestly surprised by that, but it doesn't bother me in the least. Now I hope for 2 things, that it does not affect his career in any way, and that the WWE doesn't "exploit" it. Just let him do what he does, PTP are 2 of the most underrated guys in the company, being treated like jobberous maximus on a weekly basis and it's a damn shame.

In kinda surprised but good for him. I can only image how much it would suck to hide who you are.
I actually remembered a story from when I met Darren Young a couple years ago. I was at Mohegan Sun with my friends. We see Darren Young and Ryback walking around. By the time we processed who it was, Darren had already passed but Ryback stopped to shake our hand. Darren ran back over and shook our hand too. Afterwards, my friend smells his hand and goes "That guy had some crazy lotion on his hands. Mad fruity."
Anyway, I wish him continued success.

Good for him, although because of this I don't think his future is bright in WWE. I feel like alot of guys will feel uncomfortable (which they shouldn't) wrestling against him. I think I have to agree with you

I dont get this, I hate the way everyones all over this guy just because he came out. I dont think its the kinda thing that people need to be congratulating him on really, I mean who congratulates people on their personality? or genetic programming? really?
People always think I' gay (I bleached my hair white/blonde for years) I'm not the usual guy talking about women all the time or having to out macho my other guy friends. everytime I had to tell someone I wasn't gay I didnt feel the need to have some sort of "Staying in" party.
I get that coming out to your parents would be maybe hard, because their generation didnt understand being gay it wasn't a part of society back then. Now everyone and their mother is gay (not literally, its a saying)

Now everyone and their mother is gay (not literally, its a saying) He's being congratulated because he's a person in the public eye and its even more difficult for him to come out. It's already tough as it is, but in show business it can really limit your career options if potential employers are close minded.

Good for him. That's a really brave thing he did. I was wondering a few days ago how WWE would treat a gay superstar. Would they incorporate it into the product? And if so, how would they do it? Hopefully if and when WWE decides to do that then it'll be tasteful. Even so, I think Darren Young just secured his job status with WWE for the foreseeable future.

Good for him but I don't see this benefitting him at all in the future.

First of all, good for him.
Second of all, I hate that TMZ has taken a liking to following around and seeking out WWE talent. You could tell how uncomfortable Young was, even though he was willing to make that statement. TMZ got their story, and they continued to just follow him around, even though it was clear Young just wanted to get out of there. At least the guy was respectful, but still.
Cena, as usual, handling things like a professional too. I don't recall whether or not I knew he had a gay brother.

Why are people assuming WWE had no idea? For all we know they've known for a long time and out of respect to Darren did not promote it or report it.
As for the report: Congratulations to Darren for being confident enough to tell the world.
