Former WWE superstar Gabbi Tuft publicly announced she is transgender on Thursday. Tuft, who wrestled under the name Tyler Reks in WWE, wrote about her gender identity on Instagram: "The ball dropped early today as this is now worldwide news. This is me. Unashamed, unabashedly me. This is the side of me that has hidden in the shadows, afraid and fearful of what the world would think; afraid of what my family, friends, and followers would say or do. "I am no longer afraid and I am no longer fearful.
