Anthony Bowens Discusses His Mission To Make Wrestling More Progressive And Inclusive

Anthony Bowens is on a mission to make everyone feel included in the sport of professional wrestling.

Speaking with Haley for Nerds & Beyond, Bowens discussed his mission to be a part of wrestling becoming more progressive and inclusive for members of the LGBT+ community.

“I think companies should be working towards better. For me, I’d want to present it the right way, considering how things were presented in the past which was presented terribly. So I’m actively trying to figure out what would be a good story to tell; what would be the right way to go. Because, again, if we are going to do it the right way, we’ve got to make sure that we are doing it the right way. It will be under a microscope because people want to see how this goes, how it plays out, how the story’s written. So there’s a delicacy to it too. It hasn’t really been done correctly before. So that’s something that I would like to probably do in the future,”

Bowens is currently a part of the tag team The Acclaimed, where he has been AEW World Tag Team Champion alongside Max Caster.

We will have to wait and see if Bowens can continue to make a difference with fans and make the industry more inclusive for everyone.
