Per SRS and Fightful:
>WWE Officials are “heavily focused” on diversifying the roster, specifically noting that they want a gay world champion to “represent the voices of the many WWE fans who belong to the LGBTQ+ community”. In an interview with GRP magazine, Nick Khan mentioned a similar focus;
>”WWE should be for everyone. There should be superstars you can relate to. There may be some kid out there who feels weird, maybe he feels left out because he likes wearing his mom’s dresses. And he watches Seth Rollins and realizes that he’s just like Seth. Or maybe you’re a boy who thinks you like other boys. Matt Riddle is just like that. And maybe you’re just going through puberty, so you notice girls in your 5th grade class. Just like Austin Theory would. We have a variety for anyone.”
