Sonny Kiss was briefly a part of Lucha Underground during its fourth season. Going by the name XO Lishus, he befuddled Jack Evans and challenged for the Trios Championships alongside Ivelisse and Joey Ryan.

Once things became apparent regarding the slim chances of a fifth season, both Kiss and many of the members of the LU roster moved on. He signed with AEW and it was a big deal for the man and the company. Kiss is openly gay in a sport that was once not so kind to those who were different from the majority of the locker room. Darren Young did come out eventually, but it was a tough road for the former WWE Tag Team Champion.

Regardless of his orientation, Kiss has proven to be an overly charismatic and athletic performer. If you saw his entrance at Fight for the Fallen, then you could see just how athletic he is. As a former dancer, he is extremely agile and limber and works that into his offence in the ring. He's already a role model and has a bright future ahead of him.
