9:02 AM PT — Gabbi says she first began realizing she identified as a woman when she was a kid — telling “Extra” she would sneak into her mom’s closet and try on her clothes.
“And, it just felt right,” Gabbi told Billy Bush in an interview that airs Friday.
During the interview, Gabbi also opens up about how her romantic life with her wife has changed since transitioning from a man to a woman … explaining how the situation has actually brought them closer together.
A former WWE superstar is going public about her gender transformation — announcing, “This is me. Unashamed, unabashedly me.”
The wrestler is Gabbi Tuft — who performed for years under the ring name, Tyler Reks. Reks first appeared on “Smackdown” in 2010 and went on to wrestle with some of the top names in the biz, including John Cena, CM Punk and Ryback.
Reks last wrestled for WWE in 2012
