5 Current WWE stars who are part of the LGBTQ community

#1 Sonya Deville (WWE SmackDown)

While the current WWE roster now has multiple female Superstars from the LGBTQ community, it is Sonya Deville who is considered to be the first-ever openly lesbian WWE Superstar.

During an interview with Sky Sports, Sonya Deville opened up about the moment she came out as gay in front of Triple H and the whole world on TV. Deville revealed that she first got nervous after saying that but then felt grateful that it happened.

"If you're scared to do it, my advice would be 'do it', because it was the best thing that ever happened. I'm not saying there's not going to be trials and tribulations along the way, but in the end, the best life you can live is the life where you're true to yourself. My goal in talking about my sexuality publicly is just so that a scared little girl or little boy can see me do it and think, 'wow, if she did it, then maybe it's OK that I do it.'"

Sonya Deville lost to Mandy Rose in a "Loser leaves WWE" match at SummerSlam 2020. She then returned and currently appears on WWE SmackDown as an authority figure, as the assistant of Adam Pearce. It is to be seen when does she step back inside the ring. Deville has revealed that she has been pushing for an LGBTQ storyline on WWE TV, but that is yet to happen.
