The first time I saw TMZ's interview with WWE Superstar Darren Young, I thought that it would be another disaster, because they're known for taking interviews of celebrities—regardless of whether they're sober or not—and taking pictures like the paparazzi that they are. But when the interviewer started asking his question, I thought that this is going to be somewhat a smart discussion.
He asked Darren if a gay athlete would make it big in contact sports such as MMA and wrestling, like in the UFC and the WWE. I admired Darren for saying a straight-to-the-point and honest answer when he said, "Absolutely!", but when he followed it with "Look at me", things got even more interesting.
Even the interviewer couldn't believe what he just heard. Darren had just set himself as an example: a successful WWE Superstar living his dream—who is gay.
