AEW commentator and senior advisor Jim Ross responded to a fan on Twitter earlier today who criticized the legendary play-by-play man for potentially misgendering company star Sonny Kiss on last week’s episode of Dynamite. Ross referred to Kiss as a he/him several times, angering the fan.
Ross writes, “SonnyKissXO told me he identifies with both genders. I have sonny’s blessing. With all that’s going on in our world, this is far from “disgusting.” Lighten Up, Francis and have a great day.”

Lighten Up, Francis and have a great day. https://t.co/bRBy3eDM3h

Kiss has also been vocal in the past about his identification.
