5 Current AEW Superstars who are proud to be LGBTQ

#4. Current AEW Superstar Sonny Kiss

Sonny Kiss has been open about the fact that she is gender fluid throughout her time in AEW.

The Concrete Rose signed for AEW in February 2019 and after a tag team run with Joey Janela, she was able to challenge for the TNT Championship against Cody Rhodes.

It was during this time that Kiss was able to put a spotlight on her AEW career and even stated that this Championship match was an important moment for the LGBTQ community.

“I heard about it the week prior, I didn’t know it was actually going to happen. I was shocked because I was just doing AEW Dark, which is totally fine because I love Dark and love performing in general, but when they were like, ‘You’re going to face Cody and it’s on TNT and Fight for the Fallen,’ I was shocked and then it died down a little. A few days prior, I could not sleep and kept thinking about it. It was bigger than me. It was amazing for the LGBTQ (community) having a big title match on national television. It was one of the highest-rated segments that night. It was definitely bigger than me and it was amazing. It was Sonny Kiss, but the LGBTQ community was there (too), and it was for us. I’m not exactly super happy with the match because I let my nerves get the better of me at certain points. Overall, it was a moment and it was needed. I know I’ll have one again and it will be even bigger.” said Rose

Kiss has been a representative of the LGBTQ community throughout her AEW career, but confirmed in an interview with Inside The Ring that half of the roster calls her "he" and the other half call her "she" sometimes in the same sentence.
