The One with Fred Rosser
Wrestling star Fred Rosser joins us to talk WWE and his #blockthehate movement.
Fred Rosser is a professional wrestler who made history when he became the first openly gay active member of the WWE roster. Wrestling is still his passion - but equal to it is his desire to tackle hatred and bigotry in all forms through his #blockthehate movement.
He joins us to talk about when he first started to love wrestling; the reaction of the WWE roster when he came out; the difference of having positive LGBTQ+ role models; his passion for social activism - and some of his favourite matches.
Plus, he tells us why he's keen to come to Britain to get involved with any Pride events happening in the UK.
