2021 may only be a few days old, but so far, so many notable people are taking the opportunity to proudly and publicly declare their truths, and we are absolutely, 100 percent here for it! 

Such was the case with professional wrestler Chris Lewis — better known by his wrestling stage name Mr. Grim — who rang in the new year by taking to Twitter to share a heartfelt coming-out message, letting his followers know that he is pansexual. 

"For years, I've struggled with my identity, too worried about how others would feel or think about me," Lewis wrote in his tweet. "I've finally gained the courage to openly express that I'm pansexual."

After tweeting about being pan, Lewis received an outpouring of support from many fans, the likes of which include fellow wrestling pro Nyla Rose, who Lewis cited as one of his inspirations for coming out.

Rose herself made history back in 2019 when she became the first major league transgender wrestler after signing with All Elite Wrestling.

Congrats on starting 2021 out with a bang and proudly living your truth, Mr. Grim! Welcome to the fam!
