Former WWE Wrestler Tyler Reks Is Now A Woman / WWF Old School

"Former WWE Wrestler Tyler Reks Is Now A Woman

In a press release made by former WWE wrestler Tyler Reks, he revealed that he is now a woman.

His real name was Gabe Tuft, but now he Gabbi Tuft.

You can read it below:
“Despite his successes during and after his WWE career, Gabe was still wrestling with a secret persona dwelling deep within him. This is a persona he has been hiding in the loud silence of his soul since childhood.

Finally, with the blessing of his loving wife Priscilla, Gabe is ready to reveal who he really is.

“He” is now known as “She”: A beautiful, wise, witty and wonderful woman called “Gabbi”. Gabbi is about to share her thrilling story of gender transitioning from a former WWE Superstar, Body Builder, Fitness Guru, Motivational Speaker and Motorcycle Racer to a fun-loving and fabulous female.

She has been finally set free and ready to rule her world. This is a story that wrestling and other sports fans, friends and followers must not miss, especially many in the LGBTQ community dealing with challenging transgender issues, who Gabbi and Priscilla are willing to help."

Ex WWE Star Tyler Reks Goes Public With Gender Transition / Ringside News

"Tyler Reks was with WWE from 2008 to 2012. He wrestled around the indies for a while, but has since left the pro wrestling world. Now there is a big update in the personal life of Gabriel Tuft, who is now known as Gabbi.

The former WWE Superstar has gone public with her transition into becoming a female. She reordered an interview segment with Extra TV which will air on February 5th.

The press release to hype this upcoming interview segment speaks about how Gabbi went from a male WWE Superstar working on pro wrestling’s biggest stages to transitioning into a female.
From Gabe to “Gabbi”. Gabe Tuft, a former WWE superstar, (ring name “Tyler Reks“) makes a long-awaited gender reveal exclusively on Extra TV. With a flair for flying kicks, quick takedown tricks and flowing dreadlocks, Gabe Tuft was once the WWE Superstar “Tyler Reks“, a tough pro wrestler who made opponents quiver. To the cheer of millions of adoring fans, he battled in iconic WWE mega TV events seen across the wrestling world such as Raw, SmackDown and WrestleMania.
It was also said that “despite his successes during and after his WWE run, Gabe was still wrestling a secret persona dwelling deep within him.” This seems like a very candid interview about a subject that could do a lot to inspire others who might be going through a similar situation."

Former WWE and WCW star Butch Reed dies aged 66 / The Metro


"Wrestling legend Butch Reed has died aged 66.

The former WWE and WCW superstar – who also competed for the likes of Mid-South Wrestling, NWA and GWF throughout an illustrious career – had suffered two heart attacks this year.

A post on his Instagram account confirms:
‘To everyone who reached out god bless you. Today we lost a great man.

‘Due to heart complications, Bruce ‘Butch’ Reed passed away. Butch is in heaven now with the wrestling gods. I am sure he is already booked for a Heavyweight Championship match.

‘Once again thank you for all the prayers. We will keep this page going in his memory. For funeral arrangements send me a dm for information if you would like to attend.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CK6sUPCpnKp/

‘God bless everyone and god bless in heaven “Hacksaw Butch Reed.” ‘
The late star – real name Bruce Reed – held numerous titles throughout his journeyman career, including the NWA International Heavyweight Championship and the GWF North American Heavyweight gold.

In WCW, he also held the the promotion’s world tag team titles as one half of Doom alongside Ron Simmons, who went onto team with John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield in WWE as the APA.

On WWE.com, the late star’s biography reads: ‘After leaving the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs, Butch Reed started his ring career in the central states area in 1978.

‘He became a major player as “Hacksaw” Butch Reed in Mid-South Wrestling in the early 1980s and is remembered there for his hard-hitting rivalries with WWE Hall of Famers Junkyard Dog and “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan, whom he happily came to blows with over nothing more than the nickname “Hacksaw.” ‘

From there, he went to WWE in late 1986 and was billed as ‘The Natural’, which was ‘a wink and nod to his not so natural blonde hair’.

The bio continues: ‘From there, he moved on to WCW where he formed the dangerous team of Doom with Ron Simmons.

‘Managed by Teddy Long, the duo defeated The Steiner Brothers for the WCW World Tag Team Championships in 1989. They would hold the titles for an amazing 281 days, setting a record that stood until WCW’s demise in 2001.’"
