Vanity, Killer Queen, Amazonia to a point, Taechon (was literally both, or neither, male and female), Godsend (also with both a male and female iteration) Alpha Female all would fit on the spectrum somewhere. Ultimately, unless it's part of the story (Adam Blast and Vanity fighting over Sweet Thing, for example) who cares what kind of person (or alien) they go to bed with? Male or female, who's taking Mutant or Creeper to bed? I personally don't care and would rather focus on the wrestling, not the soap operas. I think COTG has been about inclusiveness to some degree ever since Chuck Carter talked Tom into making Lord Nexus a black man instead of a palette-swap of Star Warrior, as he was originally conceived. Does it "matter" what race Lord Nexus is? Maybe, maybe not, yet I don't think any of us can imagine him in any other way.

It is an interesting idea. Not sure if COTG should address it but nothing wrong with doing it in our own cannon. In fact the info on Nano and Macro, which I had not known before reading it here, might just inspire me to do something. That and what TNA did with Orlando Jordan many years ago. For those that do not know, do not remember or had tried to forget they had Orlando play a bisexual character. Now I think that is were is starts and ends there but I remember a year or few after he was gone learning of the book Orlando by Virginia Woolf about a man that becomes a woman and lives for centuries. Then League of Extraordinary Gentlemen did a similar character but this Orlando went back and forth between male and female over the centuries. So might be interesting to do a character like that but more frequent changes. Also a transgender character going from one division to the other would be something as we see that in AEW.

As someone who has more than a couple transgender friends, it is something you have to walk on eggshells to do properly. It will be very easy to hurt or offend someone if you go too far with it.

I've booked Actagon and Proteus as casual lovers, considering that's how Greek culture went down most of the time. I'm also booking Exo-King and Killer Queen as bisexual lovers. I, myself am bisexual, so these might be cases of seeing what I want to. But there's a case to be made for a good list of characters.

Several years ago I had started with a comment questioning whether Reynard B. Guile's pursuit of Amazonia was a 'red herring' to keep people from questioning why he surrounded himself with large, viral men.

I don't usually worry about the sexuality of GWF wrestlers but I did a thing where Coven Black, Avarice (from the aCe 4 pack), and Mistress were in a threesome relationship that eventually also included Necros and Sinful. So I guess in my GWF the vampires of Draco are bisexual..
