While speaking on Something to Wrestle With, JBL denied the claims that he bullied Chris Kanyon because he was gay. JBL noted that he supports equal rights and gay marriage, and he even marched in the first gay pride parade in Bermuda. He made it clear that he doesn’t care who someone chooses to marry—it’s their business.
>“I mean, there was a story a while back that I was mean to Chris Kanyon because he was gay. Uh, there’s a couple of real issues with that. I mean, number one, I marched in the first gay pride parade in Bermuda. I’m a huge advocate for equality and gay marriage. I don’t care who you marry—it ain’t none of my damn business. So that’s a big issue.”
JBL also explained that, at the time, no one, including himself, knew Chris Kanyon was gay. He added that even if people had known, it wouldn’t have mattered, as no one cared about his sexuality. He stated that defending himself too much could make him look bad, so he prefers to simply say the accusations aren’t true and don’t match who he is.
>“A bigger issue was no one knew he was gay, right? He was there; no one knew. You know, people talk about, you know, The Undertaker did this or that—nobody knew. And nobody would have cared, by the way. I mean, absolutely 100%, nobody would have cared.
>But if I come out and say, ‘Oh, wait a minute, I’m really a good guy, I marched in the gay pride parade, I’m actually for equality,’ all of a sudden, you just look like a freaking douche, trying to defend yourself or rewrite history.”
