Professional wrestler and LGBTQ activist Anthony Bowens has a very sexy secret: He’s currently nominated for Queerty Crush in the 2018 Queerties!

Last year, he came out as bisexual in a super adorable video with his boyfriend, Michael Pavano.

Bowens didn’t actually intend on coming out at the time. The whole thing sort of happened by accident.

Speaking to OutSports, he explained, “Mike and I had uploaded a video to YouTube on his channel called ‘The Laughing Challenge,’ where he described me as his boyfriend.”

He didn’t even realize the slip-up until after the video had been posted and people started congratulating him.

Since then, he’s been a voice for both LGBTQ athletes and an advocate for ending bi-erasure.
