Bowens, who came out in 2017, became the first out gay champion in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) history on September 21 when he and wrestling partner Max Caster won the AEW World Tag Team championships.
With a gradual increase over the last few years of wrestlers coming out, or already out LGBTQ+ wrestlers rising in visibility, having an out AEW champion no longer felt like an impossibility, but it’s still an incredible accomplishment for Bowens to make it a reality.
