The 73-year-old wrestler kept his sexuality a secret throughout his career as a wrestler, but back in June, he came out in the season finale of “Legends’ House.” He said,”Sitting here tonight I’m going to say something and I would never want to say publicly, but being here with you guys, for once in my life, I’m going to be me now,” he continued. “I survived all this being gay.” The WWE icon said, “For the rest of my life I want to be happy.”
