Let’s continue fighting for those who have yet to have that freedom and provide hope that they will soon love in a world where they can. How will you celebrate pride?"

Boyfriend Pranks Pro-Wrestler Anthony Bowens With Hidden 'Used Condom'

Anthony Bowens and Michael Pavano

Who likes to pull pranks on their partners?

Apparently, out pro-wrestler Anthony Bowens likes to pull some practical jokes on his bf, Michael Pavano.

For instance, last August Bowens unleashed some hideous ‘fart powder’ in a car pretending he had an upset stomach. The hunky wrestler recorded the episode for their YouTube vlog.

At the time, Michael vowed to get back at Bowens.

And so, recently, Pavano came up with a plan.

He placed a condom filled with some semen-like fluid under his bed. And after setting up his phone camera to capture the moment, he waited for Bowens to fall for his ‘joke.’

In the video, Bowens comes in looking for a phone charger. Pavano directs the hunky wrestler to check under the bed. That’s when Bowens finds the condom.

And the look on his face is a bit heartbreaking.

The discovery

Thankfully, for Pavano, the beefy, buff athlete processes things in a calm manner.

He asks Pavano about the prophylactic and Pavano plays dumb saying he has no idea where it came from.

Then he tries to pin it on his brother who might have used the bedroom for some playtime with his girlfriend.

Throughout, Bowens’ face shows his mind racing a mile a minute as he tries to process his 'discovery.'

Finally, Pavano reveals the prank and the hidden phone.

But folks were split in the comment section for the YouTube video.

Some called the video “very funny," while others thought the prank was “mean.”

“I did not think this was funny,” wrote one commenter. “I guess I feel relationships are hard to come by, and I could not handle something like this.”

Another said, “Anthony, you are about the calmest man I have ever seen - you have a good soul, buddy!”

Watch the video below and let us know what you think. Is this funny? Or not so much?

Pro-Wrestler Anthony Bowens Comes Out (Again)

Professional wrestler Anthony Bowens has come out - again.

After coming out in 2017 as bisexual, Bowens now says he’s come to the point where the term doesn’t really apply to him today.

“It’s on to a new year, a new journey and, apparently, a new label,” says the hunky 28-year-old in a YouTube video titled ‘COMING OUT…again.’

“The main purpose of this video is to tell everybody that I prefer to be labeled now as gay,” he begins.

In advance of the reactions he’s bracing for, Bowens admits, “There’s going to be ‘thank you, it’s great that you’re being open and honest and we love you,’ there’s going to be the ‘well, we knew that,’ and there’s going to be the ‘bi now gay later’ people.”



The hunky wrestler says he initially identified as bisexual as he “didn’t know much about the LGBTQ community” and he had been attracted to both genders.

While he still advocates for bisexuality (‘100 percent’), Bowens says, “As you get older, your viewpoints change; the way you look at the world changes; the way you look at yourself changes.”

He shares that recently, in looking back at some old articles featuring him, he realized the word ‘bisexual’ was used over and over to describe him.

“It was kind of annoying me that they had to continually put what I was,” he lamented. “I couldn’t just be a professional wrestler, I was the ‘bisexual pro wrestler,’ but I just wasn’t identifying with that term any more.”



Bowens’ relationship with boyfriend Michael Pavano, who he met in 2016, also has impacted the way he views himself.

“I’m in love with Michael, I want to marry Michael, I’m picturing myself being with a man for the rest of my life, so the term ‘bisexual’ felt less and less me the more time went on,” he tells his YouTube audience. “And I now feel more comfortable labeling myself as ‘gay.’”

The athlete also stresses that he didn’t use the term ‘bisexual’ as a gateway to ‘gay.’ It’s just how life unfolded for him.

“There are some people out there who will use that just because they are afraid to say that they’re gay, but not everybody’s like that, and I don’t think they should be judged for it because everybody has their own way of figuring themselves out,” explains Bowen.

“Please don’t be a hypocrite,” implores Bowen. “I think it’s very hypocritical as people who identify as LGBT who get judged by a lot of people about our lifestyle, then turn around and judge others in the same community.”

Amen, Anthony.

Pro-Wrestler Anthony Bowens On Coming Out: Bisexual Stigma Was A Big Surprise

(photo via Instagram)
Hunky pro wrestler Anthony Bowen prepped himself for some sort of backlash from the wrestling world when he came out as bisexual earlier this year.

He's since called the support and good will he experienced coming out as "overwhelming."

“I was getting messages from literally around the world thanking me,” Bowens recalled, “Saying I was an inspiration.”

What he didn't expect was to find himself in a debate that questions bisexuality in general.

As he read posts and comments across social media, he was surprised to discover the stigma that questions whether bisexuality is just a cover for gays who aren't ready to come out completely.

“I thought there would be more negativity around the stigma of [a pro wrestler] being part of the LGBT community, but the negativity came more from people getting in arguments over bisexuality,” he recently shared on the Party Foul Radio podcast with Pollo and Pearl.

“You can date a dude or marry a dude and be with him the rest of your life, and that doesn’t change the attraction. The stimulation doesn’t change,” he said. “That’s the reason why it’s LGBTQ—lesbian, bisexual…The LGBTQ community comes in all shapes and sizes.”
