It is June and that means for the whole month we get to celebrate extra hard about being ourselves every day! And because of that, every day here throughout the month we are going to spotlight one LGBTQ+ wrestler. These names are not going to be in any order. So, this won’t be a countdown but more of just a highlight to celebrate.
On June 1 we highlighted Toni Storm, you can click here to view that.
Onto June 2 and we are going to spotlight Sonny Kiss today!
Sonny Kiss is a transgender woman who is currently working the independent scene. In the past, she has identified as gender fluid and has gone by all pronouns. She has most recently appeared for shows for the GCW promotion. Starting her career in 2011, Kiss made her debut as a valet at the age of 17 before starting in the ring. She has a background in dance.
Kiss is most known for her time in AEW. She was with the promotion from 2019 to 2023 but she wasn’t given the most opportunities. She also worked for Lucha Underground under the name XO Lishus. After finishing up her time in AEW, Kiss took on Trinity in TNA. She is one of the few trans women who have been signed to a major wrestling company.
