Just watched a clip on that popular video site and a couple of things don't seem right with this. Firstly off all the questions in the world you could ask a pro wrestler about pro wrestling, what are the odds of a closeted gay wrestler being asked about gay wrestlers? :S Also, search 'Darren young wwe' on said site. During a clip where Cena gets informed of Young's coming out, his girlfriend (whichever Bella he's seeing - I always mix them up, lol) appears to turn away, seemingly to hide laughing.
Anakin, I feel very bad asking / suggesting this, but do you think the entire thing could indeed be a work?!! Like I said I know it's an awful suggestion on paper, but from watching WWF/E for 18 years it seems like there's nothing they won't do for mainstream publicity, and this has reached people who probably haven't watched wrestling in years (I've been stunned to see the likes of The Guardian and Fox jump on board for example). This must be the most mainstream press WWE has had for a decade+. If it's all genuine I commend Young a lot and apologise, but nothing shocks me with wrestling these days.

As for the random question I am guessing he knew all to well Young was gay and was on a fishing trip and the 'shock' was because he actually came right out and said it.
