The former NXT UK Women’s Champion also addressed a few doubts that fans had. Storm said she noticed people were asking if she’s an ally or if she’s in the community when WWE announced she would takeover NXT’s Instagram for Pride Month. This is when she revealed that she’s bisexual.
Toni said, “Well, I guess now is a good time to say I’m both. I’m an ally and I can’t exactly say that I’m straight. I’m bi and it feels good to say. It’s something I’ve been really comfortable with for a long time. I just never really expressed it, I don’t know. I just never really found the right time.”

WWE offers an all-inclusive atmosphere and it has been the case since a very long time. In fact, WWE Hall of Famer Pat Patterson was the first gay champion in WWE history. Although he came out publicly a long time after retirement in 2014. Today the WWE roster has seven wrestlers, excluding Storm who identify themselves as a member of the LGBT community.
WWE Superstars who currently identify themselves as part of the LGBT community are Shayna Baszler, Sonya Deville, Mercedes Martinez, Jake Atlas, Piper Niven, Tegan Nox, and Kayla Braxton. All in all, it’s wonderful to see more and more people come out and accept their sexuality.
